In my opinion room treatment in the bass region is virtually always beneficial, as the improved damping reduces the magnitude of the peak-and-dip swings.

Thanks Duke.  My room acoustics and GIK products efficacy adventures begin.

use the Swarm to fill in the bottom octave or so.

@audiokinesis just checking, this means 88 hz and below right?

luisma31,

     The bottom octave refers to 16-32 Hz, 32-88 Hz is what is technically  referred to as the 'or so'.

Thanks Tim, I thought the bottom octave was technically 11-22 Hz (not that I can hear anything there), then you have 22-44 Hz and 44-88 HzSo what you guys speaker / audio equipment experts refer to as the "bottom octave" would be as you are describing 32 Hz (possibly what we most can hear) and 88 Hz?
