yes I did. Well since the sub is hooked to the computer, I figured I would just set the gain to 100 and let the sound card and receiver take it from there as far as volume goes.
And yea ive been playing F.E.A.R with itIts awesome.
Why isn't the sub hooked up to your receiver?
Er sorry, it is hooked up to the receiver. I was just implying that its all hooked up to the computer in the end
Did you read what SVS recommends for gain levels etc. in the manual?

Alright.
As long as you have the LFE level turned way down I guess it could be calibrated right.
Nope. Don't believe you. At those frequencies, the subwoofer is omnidirectional and its orientation is irrelevant (except for longevity).Originally posted by: JME Fidelity
Dont believe me?
and yea apac I did that little crawl around the floor trick, however I figured for PC games id rather have volume and depth over accuracy, which is why i went with this placement. Its not really for music...

Actually, port direction does make some minor differences. It tends not to so much be direction of the sub, as distance from port to wall. Again, minor though.

Actually the difference can be quite drastic. Trust me, Ive tried many different orientations with many different subs. It DOES make difference
You didn't do any measuring, did you?Originally posted by: JME Fidelity

He did say he measured out the frequency response with his SPL meter.
Whoops, missed that.Originally posted by: YOyoYOhowsDAjello

I still can't accept that the response would change "drastically" unless you put the port damn close to the wall.
Definately a nice sub. I never thought of putting one of my SVS' on my computer. How do you think a CS Ultra will sound during F.E.A.R. hmmm I think you just gave me a weekend task.

So I tried it out. Yes, that is wayyyyyy too much bass for a game.
But if I put on headphones, and use the sub, that is cool. Almost like a buttkicker

Well then turn down the gain
