Foam plugs for Proac Response 3.8?

Thanks for the responses, 'goners.

To answer your questions:
-Tpreaves, yes - it'd be an easy thing to try.

-Nicotico, I suppose you could call my room sparsely furnished, but it does have heavy drapes behind the listening position, a carpeted area, chairs, etc. I've had smaller speakers work better (i.e., other Proacs, Spendor, Sonus Faber) but not provide the low end I seek. The best shot was a system comprised of a Graff integrated driving Proac D25, supplemented with an REL Strata III sub.

-Dopogue, I always tighten up the drivers when I buy a pair of speakers, but have neglected to do it this time around. I'm on it!

-Brf, Great idea. I'm a cyclist and drummer and have used the blue Locktite for a number of uses. I'll try it on the driver bolts.

Thanks to all!

Have u tried pulling them out by another foot?...for a total of 3' from the wall. You should pick up a little more definition on the soundstage and the bass will diminish a little. Good luck.

Sparks-
They are already such a large speaker with spread-out drivers, I'd think that they're probably not designed to work in the nearfield. Bringing them out another foot would place them about 8-9' from the listener and 3' from the back wall. I suppose I can try it, but they'd certainly be intruding into the room.

Thanks for the helpful tip, Helosie!

Wondering what you did to solve the issue. Were you ever happy with the bass response?

Thanks,
Josh
