Best upgrade path?

Man, you dredged up an old question I asked.

I actually went for super-secret option x.

I was upset at my wife one day and ordered 340's all across the front, a Pioneer 1015, and an SVS 25-31 PC+ and have been rockin out ever since.

Now I am looking at getting an EQ for the sub since my room is very acoustically challenged. I'm probably going to get a BFD since it is inexpensive and gets the job done.

Wow, you are right, I thought it said 9/24/05, not 3/24/05! Thats what I get for trying to read right before bedtime with bleary eyes. Well, at any rate, sounds like you've a great system now - CONGRATS! I can't wait until my three 340's for the front arrive in about 2 weeks.

OK, I'm newly registered on this forum, so please forgive the simple stupidity of my question. But, what is a BFD? I am currently waiting on the funds to come in and the final permission from the wife to get a 340C and 170 mains, along with probably a VTF2. I am just starting to look into room acoustics and stuff so that I can really get the best sound. I was conecerned about an uneven bass response from the sub if I couldn't find a good spot for it. From your posts it seems that you are looking at using an inexpensive (cheap, yeah!) BFD to help the sub. So, that brings me back to my question, what is it?

This is a BFD.

It's a parametric equalizer people use for taming their subs in-room frequency response to flatten it out.

Ah, I see. Thanks. Hopefully when I get my sub I will get lucky with weird room acoustics that all work in harmony perfectly cause I think my wife would kill me if bought another piece of equipement just to get the latest toy to work right. Can't wait to get started on this. I think taking care of room acoustics is gonna be a lot of fun.
