Subwoofer tweaks


Hi,

I have a Velodyne DD-10 and a friend recently let me borrow
a pair of brass spikes to try. I stuck them under the sub
and noticed an improvement. The sub sounded cleaner and
had better definition. I was wondering if anyone has
tried any other products (Aurios,cones, etc) that have made
an appreciable change (for the better I hope) on their sub.

Thanks

I haven't ttied anything like the ones you mentioned, other than the spike. I have tweaked the subwoofer distance (almost doubled the actual distance) and noticed the bass was a bit more responsive, less sluggish.

I have sets of the new Aurios Pro-MAX under both of my Aerial SW-12 subwoofers - they sound incredibly tighter, faster, better!
(I am also a Dealer for these gems.)

I have a velodyne DD-15 and puchased a symposium svelt shelf to put underneath.I replaced the rubber footers with the svelt so the bottom of the whole sub cabinet rests on the svelt.What a difference without trying to listen.Clean bass just popped right out,almost as good as no sub cabinet,I guess you could say that most of the bass was freed up from from the physical part of the cabinet.So i replaced the spikes on my revels(50-as)with the svelts,For me I won't go back to spikes or rubber feet.I like upgrades or tweaks that you don't have to try to listen,They make you listen,I like surpizes like that,Hope that helps(it does for me).
