Hi all, first post on this forum so please bear with ignorance!
I recently added a large windowless HT room (7x6x3m) to my house, in brick and mortar (with a solid 350mm thick cement slab as roof). I also have a rather old set of AV components, but this is not the reason for the post. (Neither are the damping requirements, the room is understandably super bad at the moment).
The real question is this: I am wondering whether one can DIY two large subwoofers, one on the floor in the front, and a similar unit in the back up against the roof. If you drive these two differentially (out of phase for all frequencies), will this create acceptable bass while reducing standing waves? (I.e., the listener is still in the sound-field, without the room being pumped.)
Or is this a no-no?
Any help will be appreciated!
