[QUOTE="Deiimos, post: 8787241, member: 682903"] Been many years since I ran car subs in my room, as a teen did it all the time. But yeah, corner loading, and big ported boxes tuned to what you’re listening to. We use to face the subs into the corner for loudest bass, ports were always on the sub baffle when I built boxes, so they loaded off the wall too. Could get pretty loud on low power. I liked playing with overall loudness, box tuning, but didn’t really care about flat response or any of that, so loaded them into the nearest corner when testing stuff for SPL mainly (you know like, "let's see how loud this is outside the house" 😅 . Basically in a room you find the sweet spot for your listening position where you will be sitting, so it will sound better and or louder in different spots of the room. You move the subwoofer around and retest every time until it works well where you will be listening from, or try the “subwoofer crawl”, look that up for tips on that. Being in the bedroom, is more studio monitoring and or home theatre positioning which will apply to what you are doing so look stuff up on those types of subwoofers. [/QUOTE]
