Elevating subwoofer about two feet off the floor


Acoustic Sciences Corp recommends elevating the subwoofer about 2' off the floor http://www.acousticsciences.com/products/subtrap

see photo in link above ... has anyone tried raising their subs that high off the floor? Did it sound better?

I have been using the ASC sub trap for many years. If you own a sub, you owe it to yourself to try one out...I did, and have never looked back. I feel raising the sub off the floor a few feet gives the sub a much better chance of integrating the low frequency's into the room,a more vertical distribution if you will...away from the room boundary of the floor itself,giving a tighter presentation overall.

With the bass trap centered at 70 Hz,the sub also has a chance of being heard without buildup of room modes. A win win if there ever was one.
