Hello all,
My question isn't really complicated; however, it is probably rather controversial and opt to preference.
Subwoofers aren't really the easiest to set with a db meter, since the common db radio shack meter gets less and less actuate below 100hz (correct me if I'm wrong it may be a little higher than that). So most will do it to taste since this method with the meter would set it too low.
I would love to find out from the community how they set theirs up. What rule of thumb do you use or have found a method you like? Such as what movie, music, or thought process do you use to set your sub up as to not go over board, but have that great BOOM when it needs to be there?
I.E. - In the past I have used Behind Enemy Lines....the part where Owen Wilson is running through a bunch of explosive wire traps and they start to go off. It offered a constant boom, one after another to set it up a bit better.
Thanks (if this is a repost or been discussed to many times, I apologize...I used the search but to no avail. Please point me in the right direction)
