Omega5002 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 WTF is SQ anyway!? As in, says who? If it sounds good, it's SQ... not really. i only take exception to this guy (ihatepunkrock) telling me my system won't be "sq" because i have a lot of power AVAILABLE to my woofer. That's bullshit. Other then that, i know what he is TRYING to say. SQ is not just a "sounds good" thing. There is a lot more to it then that. He can direct that at someone else besides me though. Im no peanut, i didn't just start hooking up systems yesterday. SQ is in my view that makes most sense, short term for High Fildelity, The reproduction of sound trying to sound as close to the original sound. I don't get why people think if you run a lot of power, you're taking away from the SQ, it's what you do with that power that decides sound quality or not.

Just because i have a lot of power AVAILABLE to the woofer, doesn't mean its always on it. I don't typically drive with the bass slapping hard as hell anyway......you can find me listening to music at normal, clean levels 99% of the time and 80% of the time it ISN'T rap music. I love my beats but i listen to other things most of the time. Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

I love my beats but i listen to other things most of the time. I have found that the better I get my mids and highs sounding, the less over the top bass I actually want. That spot where the subs blend seamlessly with the front stage is incredible to me. Especially with the amount of classical music I listen to, the depth of sound that a well balanced sub stage adds to the music is truly incredible!

IH8PunkRok Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 well im glad you get what i was trying to explain just one thing that bugs me. you say you can "turn the subwoofers down to a nice clean level" but how flat is it? fidelity is just one piece of sq but anyway you know what you are doing and you are going to do it your way regardless.

Especially with the amount of classical music I listen to, the depth of sound that a well balanced sub stage adds to the music is truly incredible! I keep my eq flat, if the song needs the bass, the bass is there, if the song doesn't need the bass, then the bass doesn't appear. I expect bass when I'm listening to rap music, but when I listen to Pink Floyd, I expect the bass to behave and appear when needed. I agree on the mids, and highs, having good mid's and high's makes more songs enjoyable, having just a good sub stage but meh mid's, and high's, you'd just want to listen to bassy music all the time cause the mids, and highs suck.
