First time with DSP on Subs

With the wavelength of sub-bass being as long as it is, I think that time-alignment is a bit overblown, … 50Hz for example is about 20’, a couple of inches here and there really doesn’t affect imaging, which is one of the reasons that subwoofer placement doesn’t have much effect on same.

What I would be concerned about RE: subwoofer placement is standing waves / reflections in the room. The most attractive and convenient placement isn’t always optimum (and there’s no way that anyone on the internet can recommend better placement without room dimensions and/or measurements from your system.

That was my thought as well. With the before curves not being that bad, and the DSP totally cleaning it up, think the subs are in the correct spots for now.

Have cleaned things up a bit, moved some stuff around, should pull out the DSP mic, do some new readings to see if it changed anything.
