I wonder if there is a problem with the Q1 SAM mapping. It could also be that the additional energy generated by SAM is interacting with the room.
With some music I prefer to switch it off as it just gets a bit too boomy (as a result of my room resonance modes and also depending on volume!). With classical and Jazz it's perfect.
Perhaps Rackdara could share his experience on this?
