[QUOTE="Timber_MG, post: 1144583, member: 18"] My experience has been to be careful with broadband absorption, use it selectively please as it's easy to kill the spaciousness. In my view the sealed subs being better is a myth. Many under-sized commercial vented subs have issues, but not all subs fall in this category. I will say that the setup matters far, far more than even the brand as 10dB and greater PEQ is common place when optimizing. I have always found that that bass is less attention seeking, just falls into place and less lumpy on a bass line or other differentiated material. I like it but some....want the bass to draw attention to itself. Others take issue with the processing, especially when the main L&R speakers are involved in stereo (they can count as a LF source all on their own, even if they are high passed at say 40Hz).
