Hi everyone. I've just installed four Jamo 883 In-wall speakers and have begun audio testing in an unfinished room. No subwoofer or center channel just yet- next month.
The high and mid range seem to be well but I'm missing a lot of Bass. The speakers are placed between 2x4 studs with only 1/2" ply behind them (seperating other rooms). The walls vibrate a lot so I suspect that the bass is getting lost in the rear of the speakers and absorbed by the 'thin' walls to some degree.
I suspect that I will need more mass behind the speakers to reflect the bass outward more forcefully, but I am no acoustics expert. Any thoughts out there? Thanks!
