To further improve bass performance in my room I recently replaced my Velodyne SPL-1000 Ultra subwoofer by a Velodyne DD10+.
Although the SPL-1000 is a very nice subwoofer, its auto-eq function was not able to adequately integrate subwoofer and main speakers.
I also would like bass nodes in the room were better suppressed.
The built-in DSP of Velodyne’s DD10+ is far more effective in that respect.
DD10+‘s DSP offers manual adjustment of all parameters in real time while a sweeptone is playing.
As a result bass performance has very much improved.
The bass nodes are gone and overall frequency response is very flat from 27 - 200 Hz (± 1 dB, measured at the listening position).
Bass is now effortless, deep and not boomy at all.
Overall bass response measured at the listening position.
