The Real Reason Bass Is So Hard to Get Right | The Front Row Podcast Episode 14

On this episode of The Front Row Podcast, Peter Aylett from Officina Acustica and Cinema Bureau joins us once again to close out the year with a conversation about subwoofer placement and low frequency in a room. This episode feels like a natural continuation of our earlier discussions around room design, but this time we zoom in on the part of home theater that tends to cause the most head scratching once the system is powered on. We spend time talking about active room treatment, and why it may be one of the most important developments in audio over the last decade. We also revisit the long standing sealed vs ported subwoofer discussion and break down why neither option is inherently better than the other. Peter explains how each design plays a different role depending on the room, and the type of experience you are trying to create. Rather than treating it as a simple checklist decision, we talk about how subwoofer design choices tie back into room size, layout, and how bass actually behaves in someone’s space. Placement is a major focus of this episode, especially why putting a subwoofer in a convenient spot is rarely the best choice. We spend time talking about why measurements matter, and how room interactions can create peaks and nulls. Understanding what is happening at the listening position is key, and Peter does a great job of explaining how to approach this in a practical way without overcomplicating it. We touch on infrasonic subwoofers, when they make sense, and why you might consider them. This episode closes out the year and helps tie together many of the themes we have covered so far, from designing the room first to making informed equipment decisions and now dialing in low frequency performance. If you are planning a new build or looking ahead to improvements in the new year, this is a fitting way to wrap things up. We want to give a big thank you to our podcast sponsor, Martin Logan.
