I recently brought all my stuff into my basement. Basements too big so I cut off a little area using sheets hung down my drop ceiling. Because of this bootleg setup there is only one corner that I could put my HSU sub. In the corner is a wall and a closet. So I have the sub next to a closet which is the issue. Is there anything I could do to mabe improve the sound, for unknown reasons I took a blanket and wrapped the door with it. Idk just trying anything realy?

On the wall I have a huge sign hung up I noticed when I first put it up it was right over the sub and ruined the sound horribly so I moved it down the wall and sounds much better...Should I get rid of it?

also I have a rug that doesnt make it to that wall by 10inches...as long as the speaker itself is over the carpet is that enouph?

"Is there anything I could do to mabe improve the sound ... "


Sorry, David, you're expecting us to be mind readers and understand what is wrong with the sound you presently hear. You'll have to be more specific about what you have and what you want (not just deep, tight bass, we all want that; and a "basement" doesn't say much about what the room conditions are) before anyone can make any suggestions. I would also suggest you read a few articles on speaker and sub placement and room treatment. Just put the various titles into a search engine and do some research. It is far better for you to analyze what you have against what would probably work in your situation than for us to play a guessing game with a room we cannot see nor hear. Ask questions regarding more specific issues and you will probably get some help; but "how do I get better sound" is just too vague to know where to begin.
