small room and bass.

Hi everyone. If i have a small, square 11'x 11' listening room am i doomed to
have no bass? No matter whether i add a subwoofer or two? Can i never get any
better bass than 50hz? -Bob Bernstein.
well you are limited by the size of your sub speaker and cabinet
a 15" speaker is going to reach lower, a well designed cabinet
can go a whole octive lower. Your sound source is going to determine
some limitations.
locating the sub as close to the floor as possible does increase the
low frequency capibility. Using the right EQ the right way can make a
world of difference, I use EQ fearlessly. but generally a sub makes a huge
difference, you only need one good one in many cases.
Recommend sub with separate amp and electronic crossover, user selectable
crossover point.
a single sub can gain 3 db by sitting in the corner on the floor.
break up the square corners in your room with treatments to avoid
standing waves from the subwoofer.
