Hi folks,

been listening to a selection of music this afternoon.iv'e got a depth of music(bass)that i'm happy with,but there is something lacking....i cant realy explain it....its like the sound needs lifting...maybe brighter....alot more treble(but not if you know what i mean)is it more gain?

sorry for the vagueness.hopefully someone can give me the correct term.

cheers

graham

Brighter? Energetic? Vivid? Immediate? Intensity?

its like the sound needs to lift...or escape.....that make sense David?

i can get this by turning up the volume,but then the bass is wayyyy to overpowering.

I think you are looking for presence, a lift in the upper-mid. It makes things seem more, well, present, alive, interesting, involving.
