THX Ultra2 Subwoofer Setup

If you have a high-precision speaker that outputs very low frequencies, the sound may have too much boom because of the resonant frequencies in the room where your subwoofer is setup. If you have this problem use the THX Ultra2 Subwoofer Setup to adjust the low end sounds.
