Bad bass? The chair may matter more than new speakers

Bass booms at the desk and almost disappears a few steps away. Reflections from room surfaces can reinforce or partly cancel bass frequencies. Speaker placement and where you sit both matter.

Room EQ Wizard (REW) measurements taken with a calibrated microphone show peaks and dips at your listening position. An AI assistant can use those graphs and a room sketch to explain possible causes and suggest a small speaker or chair move to test.

REW’s room simulator can help explore positions, though its rectangular room model is an approximation. Fresh measurements and listening tell you whether a move helped.

AI turns a confusing graph into a practical experiment with equipment you already own. The next audio upgrade might simply be moving your chair.
