    Need more bass

    I moved the settee away from the wall and it was no better. In fact slightly worse. tried all sorts of speaker positions and like i say, had the same issue with my old and new amps. think a speaker change is in order. Will definately try at home before keeping them next time. unfortunately...

    Need more bass

    I have tried quite a few different speaker positions (a lot of!) Including having them face 90 degrees (the adjacent wall), and diagonally for test purposes. No real change. Will give the settee move a try although its not practical long term. Will report back later...

    Need more bass

    Wow cheers for all the suggestions. Tbh not sure I can get away with moving the settee forwards or putting things on my walls as the Mrs uses the room too! Starting to get the feeling I need to change speakers. Like I say my mates old ones sounded good so I'm sure my room can cope. The...

    Need more bass

    Subwoofer advice

    OK. Have been doing some testing. In my TV room attached to my sony str-da2400es AV receiver, I do seem to get a much better response from my tannoys. However, I have noticed that if I sit back compared to sat forwards, with a 60cm difference in ear position, I get a miles bigger bass sound...

    Subwoofer advice

    Sorry gasoline. What I meant was my mate bought his Wharfedales 15 yrs or so ago for 120 quid. I tested on my system in Dec when I got my Tannoys as I was borrowing the Wharfedales until the Tannoys arrived. So side by side comparison in the same room and amp. I too am a bit confused by the...

    Subwoofer advice

    Yes, it may be worth getting it checked out, but I used my mates Wharfedales (£120 ~15 years ago) on the same amp and got a decent bass, so I doubt my amp is at fault.

    Subwoofer advice

    I'm using an Ion Obelisk 3X. It has a Pre-out so should integrate well. That's what I used to connect my Jamo sub.

    Subwoofer advice

    Not sure whether to start a new topic or not... I have a similar question. I got a pair of Tannoy DC6T SE floorstanders in December, mainly based on the great reviews in WHF and in particular the suggestion that they handle bass well. I had to get delivered as no-one nearby stocked them (so no...
