Elevate Subwoofer Off Floor

By raising the sub off the floor onto the hearth i definitely noticed more bass.

Elevate subwoofer off floor.

I had to recalibrate the ht settings to accomodate several more dbs in the 35 hz range. You place our activated carbon platform under your subwoofer. This elevates it let s say 12 inches off the floor. Because we want to minimize the transmission of noise or vibration if you will to the floor itself.

Removing that means you hear the sub only not the sub and the floor. Also subs have dedicated power on board lessening the strain on your a v. Isolation is obtained by placing the subwoofer on the platform and separating the subwoofer from the floor. I also measured higher db measurements in the 20 24 hz range.

We can elevate your platform up to 24 and higher if qualified. So we put a structure underneath it. I ve done it with multiple subs both on suspended and concrete slab floors and it helped in both rooms. With my empire however it didn t make any.

A typical sub transmits vibration directly to the floor even with feet. Subwoofers are less obtrusive than the sort of floor standing speakers with drivers big enough to pull off the same task. But elevating the subwoofer is not always practical. And if we make this a diaphragmatic absorber we also can locate pressure activated absorption closest to the source.

My situation may be unique because even though the sub is elevated it is still well anchored to a solid foundation. A bowers wilkins db1 subwoofer bowers wilkins the no. The floor is then vibrating and adding to the sound. So let s see why the subwoofer should not be rested on the floor what are the ways to isolate a subwoofer from the floor and how we can get the best performance of the sub if keeping it off the floor is not feasible.

A higher position in the room will produce a smoother room frequency response. 1 setup myth is.
