I purchased a Behringer Feedback Destroyer that I want to use as a sub EQ in hopes that my LFE response will improve in my media room. Some of you may already know... when I stand outside the listening area, the low frequencies are more audible than when I'm sitting anywhere inside the area. I've tried to position the sub in different unobtrusive spots as well as put up 2 out of 8 (still have to put four more together and hang two custom made) acoustic panels, but the results have remained unchanged.

I'm starting this thread for multiple purposes, first and foremost is to get help from other BFD owners on how to set up the myriad filters, modes of operation, get interpretations of test results, and to help educate others who might be having similar issues and are looking for a solution. I believe that those who recommended I buy one know what they're talking about, and in my quest for audio bliss I'm willing and have the resources to integrate this solution.

The parts I have are the BFD itself, the 1/4" to RCA adapters, an extra subwoofer cable and the trusty ol' Rat Shack SPL meter. Aside from the front panel, the box is not real attractive (especially the mounting ears, while although they're removable, they leave exposed circuitry ) so I'll be hiding this box inside the audio cabinet.

Suggestions I've received so far...

Well, I've read through the manual somewhat, not thoroughly like these two have suggested, but so far all I've gotten out of it is how to set it up as "Front of House" or as "monitor mix" which is beneficial to a musicain while playing onstage. That's all well and good but right now I'm failing to understand how to apply the principles explained in the manual to my purposes.

In any event, the writeups and guides over at The Home Theater Shack are providing some answers to my questions, but I think it would be beneficial if some back-n-forth developed on this forum, so I'll continue to ask my q's here when I start digging in.

Stay tuned...
