A few years back I took a long drive out to E Hampton, NY to listen to a pair of Carolina Audio JTM's. A single driver speaker. I was using a pair of Dynaudio 1.8MKII's.
Well when I walked into the sellers house and I first saw those speakers did I ever thought how I just wasted my time and gas money for such a long ride. Was I disappointed.
A 4" driver in a wide shallow tall box. Yuck!
Well I was there so I took a listen.
Within 5 minutes I said I'll take em.
Sold the 1.8's within days and never looked back.
Now they didn't go deep enough in the bass for me.
After all I built a pair of Fried model "H" subs for the Dynaudio's. I had Ronnie build me a pair of transmission line subs using the no longer available 7" Jordan driver.
I now have the best bass I've ever heard.
No Not boom, boom, thud that's so prevalent today.
The bass is like comparing the midrange of a pair of Quad 57's to the midrange of a pair of Cerwin-Vega's.
It's shocking what so many people are missing.
Bass wise.
