help... new cement floor (1 Viewer)

[Scott Andrew]

Ok so I used to live on the top floor of a triplex. My sub is a HSU VTF-3 MK3and the room was about 13ft X 13ft with standard 8 ft ceilings (1352 cubic ft)and it pounded the crap out of my place now i just bought a condo and I live on the ground floor which is hardwood over cement. The new room is 9ft x 17ft with 9 ft ceilings (1377cubic ft), however I can barely hear the sub now. I've tried tuning it again but it's still nothing compared to what it was before... is this because of the cement flooring?

You should still be able to shake your bones, but that floor isn't going to move, unless you live in California, so it just won't be the same. You could get some bass shakers for the seating

Pretty hard to tell anything for certain with the information you gave us, Scott. It could be a lot of things, like the difference in its placement relative to the seating. It could also be an equalization problem, where you have it located, or maybe it just needs to be turned up.
