One interesting and inexpensive method to adjust your frequency response humps and dips in the room is to use the built in parametric EQ function in Roon - you can even use Roon for 14 days for free to try it out, play around with the EQ and if you can boost bass in the right frequency ranges and avoid "bloat" you may find that the $129 for a year is well worth it in addition to the user interface it provides...
More Power or use subwoofer to boost bass for music
Hi, just want to know if anyone can offer their opinions on how to boost the bass when listening to 2 channel music.
I just got a pair of B&W 804 D3 and would like to get more bass out of the speakers. I remember the bass was pretty punchy when I heard it in the dealer showroom, but I don't seem to get that in my setup. I currently have Parasound A31 power amp with 250 watts per channel.
So the question is whether I should get a more power amp, or add subwoofer to my 2 channel music. I'm a little bit of a purist and would prefer not to use a subwoofer for music, but I'm open to this option.
I would definitely appreciate if anyone can share their experience/opinion. Thanks very much.
