I've been poking around with REW trying to figure out some issues I've had with understanding dialogue through various center speakers. It's probably my room or my ears, but I've noticed that my subwoofer also appears to cause cancellation at ~120Hz.
Green and blue is with subwoofer and center active, center set to small. The others are variations of the subwoofer either being off, or on and center set to large.
If all the speakers are off and I only test with the subwoofer, I see normal expected roll off through 120Hz.
Center is a Genelec 8030C, sub is a Monolith 12 THX Ultra.
My room is definitely not optimal and no clear improvements are really doable there. Should I try reversing the subwoofer phase or could that just cause nulls elsewhere?
