It's like the whole system comes alive when the subs are added. I guess I just thought that with the Sonus Fabers and the ML 536s I wouldn't need subwoofers.
My Sonus Faber Amatis have weak bass even though I'm running ML 536s--800 w/ch into 4 ohms
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I thought the new monos would solve the problem. I still have to use subwoofers to feel like my system has any bass. I've tried speaker placement but to no avail. I realize it could be room issues, but short of packing my room pull of room treatment, there has to be something else. The drivers work, it just doesn't sound full. Should I get a different speaker? At this price, I expected more.

@torke audiophile speakers are more about accuracy and quality of bass rather than quantity. I don’t know if this is your first pair of high end speakers. If you need bass that rattles walls you need subwoofers and you don’t need expensive speakers. Otherwise you will get the right amount of accurate bass with your current SFs. Also one other thing to note - your Nordost Heimdall 2 cables don’t do you any favors in the bass department. Once again, these cables are about accuracy and transparency. |
@celtic66 all about synergy. I run Nordost Tyr 2 XLRs, Frey 2 power cord on DAC and amp, Heimdall 2 power cord on streamer. Accurate, fast, transparent and dynamic. Combined with Audience FrontRow speaker cables just excellent synergy. I wouldn’t run Nordost Heimdall 2 interconnects and speaker cables in the same system though. |
