    Connecting a subwoofer to an RME ADI2 PRO with Genelec Speakers

    Really? I was always under the impression that if you had the opportunity to run your subs in stereo then that would be preferred. Obviously, I'll look into this as I would much rather run them in dual mono as I think stereo subs would be horrific to time align whilst maintaining even bass at...

    Connecting a subwoofer to an RME ADI2 PRO with Genelec Speakers

    Hi all, Looking at a potential change of monitor and subwoofer positioning for a much more balanced stereo set up. As I have mentioned in this post previously, my 8341AWM's are positioned very poorly in the room with the left monitor being placed close to a corner and the right monitor being in...

    Connecting a subwoofer to an RME ADI2 PRO with Genelec Speakers

    I didn't realise the sub could do that, sum the signal. That's good to know! :)

    Connecting a subwoofer to an RME ADI2 PRO with Genelec Speakers

    Hi all, I have a question about how to correctly connect up my subwoofers to an RME ADI2 PRO FS R be and also which mode to have the RME set to. My set up will soon be as follows; Source 1 - Intel NUC (ROON Core) -------- USB ---------- RME Source 2 - TV -------- TOSLINK ---------- RME...

    Yeah I'm far field at around 2.5 - 3 metres give or take.

    Yeah, your room certainly dictates your crossover frequency as SBIR will differ in strength dependent on a multitude of factors which ultimately determines where you cross over to your mains.

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    Trust me, I will be looking at every single detail when it comes to the planning of it! Speaker tweeter height (which I think has been mentioned here t o be around 600mm, angle of attack, speaker distance to listening position in relation to how far apart they are and so on........... I will...

    Genelec should include another tab which shows you the summed value instead of individual subs (on the assumption you're using them as a dual mono).

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    Totally agree. I would never use the extra headroom if I'm honest BUT, I could never get the wife to agree to having them in our lounge at all!! They are just not a lounge friendly device at all. Don't get me wrong, I love the look of them personally as I like the industrial look but they don't...

    I see where you're coming from @Tangband Much like doing a lot of motorway driving in a car that has both comfort and sport mode suspension, if you only ever have it set to sport mode, you'll never know just how comfortable the drive could be. I think your idea has some merit and I'll be...

    RME ADI2 PRO FS R be Filters

    Ok. It looks like I'm going to have to have a good read of the manual I think! I know it's possible though because I've noticed a few threads about it over the last couple of weeks. My subs are the Arendal 1723 S2 so not controllable via GLM.

    Is the Arendal 1961 1V subwoofer worth getting?

    Because I'm impatient! :D It's ok, between my mate who owns them and watching an Arendal YouTube video on their colour schemes, I've figured out that the Satin will be the best bet. I've ordered a pair of 1723 S1's in Satin White. I've found out that Arendal are ditching the gloss white...

    RME ADI2 PRO FS R be Filters

    Ahhhh. So I'll be connecting the Genelecs via AES/EBU 1/2 output and my two subs via balanced XLR 3/4. That's great! So only the balanced output will be affected but I'm not bothered about that as the subs will have a typical LPF applied at around 80hz. Definitely won't be using tone controls...

    RME ADI2 PRO FS R be Filters

    Hi all, Just a quick question really. Is there any way to NOT use any of the filters included in the RME ADI2 PRO? I'm using Genelec 8341 SAM Speakers which have their own DSP in-built so do not want any filtering applied to the signal before the SAM speakers. Is this possible at all??

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    Hi Tangband! Your points made are really valuable although I am no longer buying the 7360A's I'm afraid, I've gone for a pair of Arendal 1723 1S subwoofers. We are building a media wall soon so my 8341's will be placed within a cavity with their rear ports less than 5cms from the front wall...

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    You're welcome bud! I think I may have mentioned this before in an earlier post (or thread) but I have personally spent well over 20 grand (of money I certainly don't have and that I'm still paying for) on audio gear. I've been searching for an elusive "perfect sound" in my room and it's taken...

    Very clever engineering!! You can't fault Genelec when it comes to innovation!

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    Do you know what I like about you, you are willing to see flaws in your own set up without getting all worked up about it! That attitude is refreshing on here and I applaud you for it! I must admit though, although I've ordered the Arendal's, I'm still jealous about your set up and the fact...

    Genelec Dual Sub Optimisation

    Thank for your input Pegwill! My current set up involves two 12" sealed subs where one is just off to the right of the couch (so nearfield within 1 metre) and the other is off to the left just in front to the left monitor. In order to gain match these identical subs, I had to really tone down...
