So I decided to make use of my cheaper sub that only goes down to 40Hz for a stereo sub experience.This is ridiculous hahaha, Can someone just send me £450 so I can buy another PB1000

  1. REW generated EQs
  2. User EQ
  3. Equal loudness contours Volume control
  4. Crossover for mains and subs
  5. Delays to time align subs to main
  6. Extra crossover for the cheap sub to pass through below 40Hz to the good sub
  7. (5.) delay numbers measured to account for the delay from the extra linear phase crossover on the cheaper sub

Someone moves a speaker by 2cm here and that’s me needing to take a week holiday to re-measure and calculate everything.

The stereo subs make a lot of things better and a very good centre image but overall the quality of the cheap sub even at 80Hz is not on par with the PB1000 and it does stand out. Not sure if I’m gonna keep it yet

    I’m not sure it’s worth it tbh.
    I only made it responsible for 50 to 80Hz. Mains kick in at 80, and PB1000 takes over the right hand side at 50.
    It has made the bass response more even across listening spaces in the room. And gave the right main more low end. But even passing through the same 50-80Hz window to PB1000 vs the cheap sub, and listening to music just through the individual subs, the PB1000 sounds much better even at just that small window
