[QUOTE="DidUHearThat?, post: 5778293, member: 594758"] That's your problem. 32 hz is unusually low. Raise your LPF on the crossover to 50 -65 hz. You can keep raising it till is begins to sound bad, then dial it back down a bit. Most sub boxes will stop sounding good around 80 -100 hz. Also the bass becomes more directional making it more obvious your bass is comming from behind you. Your LPF should be somewhere between 50-80 hz. 60 hz is common. Your sub sonic filter should be set around 20 hz. Phase is not at issue here, but it should be adjusted till the bass sounds tight and loud at the listening position, or left at zero. [/QUOTE]
