Got sub...
My subwoofer came in today
That’s really all I have, just wanted to share with someone who may understand since no one in my family seems to get why I’m acting so delighted right now. Money well spent, I’ve been listening to base players for about 40mins now, Brian Bromberg never sounded so good, but not just the base the entire musical spectrum. Oh almost forgot it’s a REL T9i. “Happy Times yes” |

Did you take advantage of RELs recent price reduction?

What are your main speakers and where about are you crossing them over. Tried to check your public profile but guess I'm too new to access it..lol

I got the sub to go with a set of Harbeth HLs5+. So far I’ve followed the instructions on the REL web site for corner placement tuning. Not sure exactly where it’s crossing at. Got it sounding pretty good yesterday, I’ll be experimenting with placement options next.

REL's instructions are pretty clear and straightforward to use and they are also accurate guidance with respect to optimal setup. I use mine near the corner of a half-wall, with the center line of the sub sitting at 45° with either side of the two walls.
With respect to the sub, the control that by far determines the bass output and the integration is the sub Gain setting, not the crossover (remember my DOE on my integration) You can see this from the graphs below. The first plot is crossover (XO), the second is Gain (volume) and the third is the Gain/XO interaction. You can see from the steepness of the line that its really the Gain (volume) that drives the 20 Hz response. Also, the p-value number shows that its statistically signficant as its less than a value of 0.05 (the industry standard value for significance at 95% confidence level)
