| Why, one front/one back sub, a double distance? Hi Pmcneil, you said "a response flat below 10 htz:;and there is no other way to get this at any price)."That is a great lowwww bass response, how did you measure this? And I would love to see a graph of it. My sub is flat to 12hz, I use the free ... | |
| Audiophiles are older than dirt I told my wife that I wanted an I phone and she asked me why. I told her because you can use it as a compass! I must have watched too many spy films. And those big 1/24 scale cars on those tracks were the bomb, I remember saving all summer for a h... | |

| What is wrong with negative feedback? Atmosphere said "06-25-10: AtmasphereAcoustat6, yes, sometimes I do. Most music does not demand it but some does: The Verdi Requiem, on the Soria box set (RCA) is a good example of vinyl being put the limits, and stereos too. If you play the quiet... | |
