Q Acoustics use -6db figure, so it's not 44hz. It's probably closer to 50hz. Although room will aid in low bass.

It's based on physics. Happy you think you live in a reality that defies those laws. It'll be ported at a high frequency, have poor frequency response, and the port tune will be high to the point of not being lower response than a decent pair of floorstanding speakers.

8" ported sub in a small cabinet? It'll be a boom box. Best to seal that port convert to to sealed box

It can't fix a low quality sub. I've owned a couple of subs, worst was a Yamaha. Boomy, slow lumpy what a mess. EQ didn't fix it

Are you using high level or low level to the Rel? My point is don't bother with cheap subs, £100 etc will just make the system sound worse. Save up for a better one.

Why would I bother with a overpriced Rel "subwoofer" with a 8" driver? I've owned subs in a way higher (and lower) class than the Rel (including owning Rels) That Rel is barely a sub.

Are you a 2 dimensional being living in a 2 dimensional universe? :D There is height dimension, which factors in subwoofer selection.

From £100 to £1600. Low quality subs can make a system sound worse. That Rel is barely classed as a sub, 8", (My main speakers go lower than that Rel) :D it's ok for a small bedroom and I hope you didn't follow rels advice about connection & setup.

I heard it's possible to create a playlist in a media player like winamp, foobar or something then export it - then LMS can read that it? Certainly a lot better than doing it on the device

Room EQ can't polish a turd

I'd recommend no subwoofer if just looking at budget subs as it'll just make it sound worse, lumpy boomy bass.

No thanks.

I don't have that issue with 320,000 tracks. But I use LMS. Although how to check the server will randomise from those 320,000 tracks? Switch servers. ok increased max playlist size, went into various artists branch added them ....and :D

Nope.

How about Wiim with built in dishwasher, bicycle brake bleeding pump, a Rolls Royce AE1170C CU programmer?
