Multiple subwoofers work wonders


Performed measurements today showing the significant benefits of a mulit-sub system on both extending and smoothing the in-room frequency response and the impact on room modes. Can't post the pics but they are on my system page.

Thanks. It's taken me a long time and is still a work in progress. Cannot stop tweaking.
One of the more interesting phenomena I've noted is that while I have been able to achieve an even flatter frequency response, the room modes were far worse. It's kind of a balancing act. 

Little physics, little aesthetics, lot of luck. Anal retentiveness probably helps. 

Just lovely. Tube sound was always offset by fear of reliability (had a bad experience when I was younger), but 300Bs in a preamp are pretty unstressed. It's a dual mono class A design as are the amps. In typical Pass fashion, they have a sound that has been described as tube-like, so they all play well together. The amps are direct coupled to the Wilson Benesch midrange and the music and the imaging is an immersion experience.  Very nice combination.
Midrange rules!  But bass is also nice.
