Bass/speaker excursion issues

HSU is still around, ask them, send them a short video.

I always wanted to hear a/some HSU, seems they know what it's all about.

Erik squires and ditusa: I have been running the main speakers full range and trying to slide the subwoofer bass frequencies under what the main speakers are capable of. Using a meter and test disc it seems as the mains start falling off at 60hx (but still have a meaningful amount of lower frequencies below 60 hz). I did this as I absolutely love the sound of the main speakers and want to have there precense involved as much as possible. But I can note that when the speakers do the low frequency large Excursion it does it on the main speakers as well as on the subwoofer.

I'm wondering if I just need to find some kind of device that will filter out super low frequencies? I do have a DSPeaker Dual Core which is a DSP device used to integrate Subs in the main systems. It worked well with my previous amplifiers(Cary V 12's) but with my current amplifiers (Parasound JC 1+ mono blocks) it seems to detract from the sound overall.

But..... even with the DSP in place with the previous amplifiers, the carry amps, it still did the large Excursion thing. And again it's only on a few tracks that have really low base.

Maybe I should just be grateful for the great sound I get on 99% of the music that I listen too and press skip I know that have this anomaly.

OP

You are living in a darkness born of myth, and I wish I could point you to all the threads on A'gon that go something like "omg, I raised the crossover point on my speakers and they sound so much better!"

The higher crossover point minimizes distortion by leaps and bounds and it is completely a positive thing.
