Sub questions

I have a sub (soon to be 2) that has the option of front firing or down firing. When I got it, it was already set up for down and I never bothered to try front. Does anyone have a strong opinion either way?

Also....the floors in my house are all ceramic tile. If I keep them down firing, would I benefit from putting small rugs under them?

If it matter, subs are run at very low volume and crossed around 60 hz (still dialing things in in a new room and with a new amp).

 

What say you?

Agree. Esp when the 2nd one arrives. Already getting ideas for positioning.

But yah I think I will change this one to front and see what happens.

I sure wish I hadn't sold my Gallos.

You could also try firing it toward the wall pulled out about 2-3 inches. Sounds odd I know, but I've done this in the past with good results.

I’ve had both types, down firing and front, and truthfully I could easily be happy with either. Placement of the subs is the most important issue.
