    You are lucky! I cannot endure deep bass sounds, makes me nauseous. Therefore my "quality" subwoofer was almost never used and is now turned off permanently. :/

    Sometimes you should go to the ear doctor and do a hearing test.
    It then determines which frequencies can no longer be heard. Hearing aid maybe? Use EQ?

    It's so tempting to become a hater!

    I am happy for you.

    People usually go overboard with the sub. Calibrating a sub can be hard, less is more imo, add just enough to feel it.

    No offend taken @Anubhav Ukil .... I agree it looks Iike I was pissed off.

    It´s more like I wasn´t into a lot of details regarding how subs can be build - that´s all.

    I wish you a nice summer whatever where you live :like::yes:

    Cheers

    you had me at $600 for some Adam A7Xs..you only paid $600 for the pair?! Where'd you get a deal like that?

    BTW, I own the same monitors and they've served me well. Congrats on the Sub.

    Like the sub: second hand.

    Thanks @Tele_Vision ..... there´s been a little quiet here regarding the new sub for the last week... house decorating and stuff that was needed but on monday I´ll start doing some serious testing and treatment of my tiny studio.

    Cheers

    good luck not re-mixing lots of tunes from before you had a sub! don't forget to try out any old neglected synths, you might find a pleasant surprise or two.

    I use the Genelec 7360 10inch and really won't even bother mixing bass without it anymore, or I just spend way too much time fixing stuff later. But I would not discourage anyone from even buying a budget sub, rather than producing bass music without one.
