I did adjust the phase knob when I had it between the speakers but it didn't make much difference. I too was thinking that the corner placement might produce a muddy sound, but it really wasn't, from what I could tell. It's easy enough for me to center it between my speakers so I'll do some more a/b testing tommorrow (girl friend is coming over this afternoon). If I had two subs, wouldn't I be putting them in the front corners anyways though? A corner location is where the svs manual that came with the sub says it sounds best too. When It, positioned between the speakers I turn the volume to about 2 o clock vs 10 o clock for the corner position.
Best way to hook up a sub?
Okay, so I just found a sub tonight (svs sb 12 plus) that has xlr inputs and outputs. Question is what is the best way to incorporate a sub in my system. I can run xlr's into my amp and use the remaining rca's into the sub, but I think I will get a hum if I do this (another ground loop?), and I would rather use xlr's because I just think they sound better. What about an xlr splitter? If I do use a splitter, does a cheap splitter offset the advantage's of high quality Xlr's? If not, would it be better to split the signal at the pre amp, or just run xlr's into the sub from the pre amp, and then from the sub into the amp, as this is possible with this sub?
