[QUOTE="ThatDude, post: 1121025, member: 560124"] This thread convinced me to turn off my bass boost, and the results are great. When you think about it, it doesn't make sense to use bass boost. Why are you boosting bass on your subs that only play bass? It could make sense for full range speakers where you want more bass than mids, and highs. If you want more bass from your subs, turn up the volume on them. I knoticed since I turned off the bass boost, it is cleaner, and more accurate. I think a song that tests the accuracy of your subs is Bow Wow - Let me hold you. The bass on that song is fast paced, and varies. With bass boost up at about +9dB, this song's beat sounded like crap. Now with no bass boost this song sounds almost perfect. I think you guys should try it out on your systems and see if the bass sounds all mumbled, or clear. BTW: These are Infinity Perfect 10's, I think these woofers are supposed to try to be as clear as possible for SQ right? [/QUOTE]
