Now don't get me wrong I do like those low notes and a crisp driving bass line. The problem is that just when I think Ive got it all set up running well, sounding musical, balanced entertaining etc etc a CD comes along and well everything just sounds CRAP!. This happened today with AMy Winehouse her album sounded oh so interesting, cool, creative and unique and especially detailed on my headphones. I put it on the CD and ooooooh that bass my livingroom immediated became a subwoofer powered boy racers dream. Frantically I reached for the volume control so that the book case wouldnt fall over or the dinner plates crash from the shelves. Even at the subs lowest setting it was still too much. Yet on some other CDs like the Cream of Clapton, no matter how I adjust the sub woofer "CrossRoads" still sounds like it is being played on a dansette record player. Im not sure if my settings, equipment are at fault but I seem to be for ever adjusting the level that the sub woofer is set. In the end I usually set it with a series of pure tones around the cross over frequency of 80Hz and Golfrapp etc rarely gets played and I am still seeking a good recoring of "Crossroads"
