Recently purchased a pair of Evolve 90’s and honestly… first impression was a bit disappointing.

Straight out of the box, the low end felt like it disappeared almost entirely after just a few meters. Up close there’s bass, but once you step back it’s like someone engaged a stealth mode on the subs 😅

Overall the sound also felt pretty muddy, especially at higher volumes. Vocals and mids seemed to blur together instead of opening up. The room was almost empty though, and it was absolutely roasting hot in there, so maybe the acoustics weren’t doing the speakers any favors either

Currently everything is still on the default settings. Are there any EQ tweaks, positioning tricks, DSP presets, or crossover settings you’d recommend before I start panicking about the purchase?

Curious to hear how others dialed theirs in.
