Today I disconnected my depth sub in order to get the Vantages playing bass as smoothly as possible, but ran into an odd issue. On a few songs where there is a strong bass line I noticed there being a nasty peak in the mid bass region. The only way to help tame it was to set the left speaker at +5 and the right one at -10. When I did this the deeper bass became more apparent while reducing the mid bass output. When it is vice versa (right +5/left-10) the mid bass spike is even worse. With both speakers set to the same setting,irregardless of + or -, the mid bass remains dominant. It is only when the right speaker is in the - and the left + does it seem to reduce this hump. Of course the further in the - that I take the right speaker and the further in the + the left speaker, the less mid bass is there and more lower bass present. Is this normal? Shouldn't both speakers be set to the same setting or at least close? Why would the right speaker exaggerate the mid bass so much? It's as if by lowering the right while raising the left output they seem to cancel each other out in that region. I'm not sure yet whether I like the way it is at this point. I will have to listen some more tonight. Has anyone else encountered this?
P.S.
I checked all of the cables and speaker wires to make sure they were all hooked up properly. The speakers seem to be working properly, but I am wondering if this is a room node problem or something else. Thanks for your help.
