The Paradigm Perfect Bass Kit
™
Even when the finest subwoofers are perfectly spaced and positioned, the
room itself can still have a dramatic impact on performance. Room dimensions,
dead spots, archways, even furniture can turn the room into an additional
instrument playing alongside musicians or movie scores with unwanted
coloration and resonance. Bass can sound boomy with poor definition. You
have the perfect subwoofer but in a less than perfect room! The solution is
included with your new subwoofer … Paradigm's critically acclaimed
Perfect
Bass Kit (PBK)
. Based on research conducted by the National Research
Council, PBK analyzes the subwoofer's response in your room, then sets about
perfecting that response through scientific calculation! And it's receiving
rave reviews …
“…
audibly better bass through science
… Does it really work? You bet
it does. Several noteworthy features of the software are its ability to correct
multiple peaks and/or troughs in the subwoofer/room bass response curve,
to identify and address potential standing wave problems, to calculate a
solution that helps optimize bass response across multiple listening locations,
and that, purists please take note, affects only the subwoofer—not the other
speakers …I did some listening tests with the Paradigm sub before using
the PBK kit and then afterwards, and I can vouch for the fact that the PBK
equalized sub sounded much tighter, more neutrally voice, and much better
defined.” –
