Now that several RM 30's and 40's with the PBS and accompanying subs with our modded PE plate amp have shipped, I will pass along some recent experiences.
The parametric EQ on the amp can prove useful in unexpected ways. Using a powered Larger Sub with a pair of RM 30C's, I ended up with a primary xver point of 40Hz (first calibration mark clockwise of 30Hz, the minimum setting), a low level (about 8 o'clock on the volume), and EQ settings of 60Hz, Q=.25, and max cut in EQ level. In response, the whole system transformed itself into an imaging monster with dynamics of posterior-propelling proportions. A lot of this is overcoming the floor-to-ceiling room mode, of course.
If you have 30's or 40's with the PBS, investigate using the EQ to tame
71Hz (8ft ceiling), 63Hz (9ft ceiling), or 56 Hz (10ft ceiling) modes by carefully adjusting Q and level, after setting EQ frequency to one of these numbers depending on room height. My ceiling slopes from 8 ft to 9 ft which is probably why I ended up with a 60Hz EQ setting by ear. Just go very slowly with the level, frequency and Q controls.
Try this and post your results.
