[QUOTE="Vaughan, post: 33748, member: 693"] I don't have "proof" yet (neither do you). How about I provide anecdotal evidence from an authority on the issue. http://www.ultimateavmag.com/howto/805bass/ Tony Grimani also knows a thing or two about acoustics and bass reproduction in domestic sized rooms (I'm sure you've heard of him). He does [u][b]not[/b][/u] recommend setting all speakers to "large" due to the issues mentioned in this thread. He also specifically implies that smooth bass when not using high-pass filters for each main speaker is, according to him, [b]impossible[/b]. The reason for this is due to irregular placement options. I mentioned more than once that positioning of speakers for imaging purposes is almost never conducive to good bass reproduction. Of course some here say that it doesn't matter whether we're talking about subwoofers or main speakers as they're both bass sources. ::) Regards, [/QUOTE]
