I have a pair of JL Audio F113V2 subs in my 24' x 26' "man cave", on a carpeted concrete floor. For the longest time I struggled with terrible bass, as the artist was going up and down in the registers, the room would contribute a single bass tone which was not at all the same as the artist's playing.
I have installed 10 bass traps and with the help of a calibration microphone and the Room EQ Wizard software, I have the situation much improved, but not "perfect". When I'm playing some music from Stanley Clarke or Christian McBride (where they are using a full-size, standup bass), there is still a little "boominess" in the bass registers.
Just for grins, when I could get some help lifting those subs, I thought I'd cut some 4x4's to see if that would make a difference, if so, order a pair of the sub stands in these postings.
Is this all worth the trouble?
