Subwoofer adjustment for each recording

It's hard not to adjust the bass to your own liking but you should tune your bass for a natural sound. Some recordings will have more or less bass than others. Back in the day we set our rigs up and just let it play. 

I just put remote volume control before my sub array.
Do what you want but rest assured that it has ZERO relation to a loudness control, which for other purposes, is simple to build. PM for details.

Some recordings have a lot of bass. Sometimes when you go to clubs and hear music live, there's a lot of bass. Other times, other recordings, there isn't.


I like to play the recording and have it sound like it was made.

Does the statement "seems too strong" mean you don't actually enjoy the stronger bass on these recordings....or....you enjoy it but don't know if you are supposed to enjoy it?

For my two cents, the system/tuning/music should always be to what sounds good too you and not to some supposed what the recording engineer intended.

Also, I suspect that people often adapt to the recording that have stronger bass, get used to that stronger bass and then wonder if other recordings have too little bass?

Music from different eras ,ie, 1960's will have more bass than mid  to late seventies onward . I usually set my Rel:s and leave it until I play an older record. Life is too short to listen to music without proper bass Imo. It's the back bone of music I listen to
