Hey all, some time back I built a pair of H-Frame with a pair of SW-12.16FR in each box. Each box is powered by it's own A370PEQ. I really don't get much output, no matter how I set the control on the amps. When I turn them up to where I get some kick, the speakers are over driven and start making the dreaded 'farting' noise. Now I'm NOT trying to play at arena volume levels mains putting out maybe 85dB. After all the great things I read, I did expect some visceral impact from the kick drum. About all I can get is just a bit of low level fill below what is supplied by my Merlin TSM monitors.
I followed the a wiring diagram that was posted here a long time ago for the Super V. Does it sound like something is miswired? One thing out of the ordinary, the amps are not connected directly to the speakers by the wiring harness. I've added in about 10ft of speaker wire, keeping the amps near the equipment rack.
My listening room is huge compared to most. System is in a balcony that is about 25x20x8 over looking a room that is 20x60x20. I would think this would be an advantage, as I shouldn't have the typical problems of standing waves that occur in small rooms.
thanks for any advice
