| "Musical" subwoofers? Advice please on comparing JL subs In my opinion the e110 has the potential to be more musical because of its true 2 way crossover capabilities, but would probably be more difficult to set-up which may negate that potential.Are you using separates or an integrated amp? | |
| Need help I had the same issue and my system is also on the second floor. I was able to eliminate the issue by using a Townsend Audio Siesmic platform. | |
| What is Floyd Toole saying about extra amplifier power and headroom? Hey Diamond,Here is a link to a DBX analog crossover. https://dbxpro.com/en-US/products/223xsThe biggest difference between this and the MiniDSP and the PA2 other than the one being analog and the others digital is that the MiniDSP and the PA2 can... | |
| What is Floyd Toole saying about extra amplifier power and headroom? I run XLR cables to my sub because when I've run RCA, there's a low-level hum from the sub that completely goes away when I use XLR cables.DBX makes a DSP unit that has XLR outputs. https://dbxpro.com/en/products/driverack-pa2 If you shop around ... | |
| I Was Considering Active, Then I Watched This ... I respect Steve, I do not follow him closely, but in previous videos of his that I have seen, he seems to come from a position of experience and research. In this video he seems to come from a position of speculation and assumption. There are plus... | |
| What is Floyd Toole saying about extra amplifier power and headroom? Proper installation of your MiniDSP would be between your preamp and amps. IOW you would connect the left and right outputs from your preamp to inputs 1 and 2 of the MiniDSP. You would then send two of the four MiniDSP outputs to the inputs of you... | |
| Is it better to have two matched subs or one As others of said. 2 are better than 1 and they DON'T have to match.How low do your mains cycle? | |
| tough choices Per the Sonos Faber Aida owners manual these speakers do not have to be Tri-amped. They can be Tri-amped but they are also designed to be driven by a single stereo amp or mono blocks if that is what the owner desires or can afford. Also with the A... | |
| Audiophile system for Techno and Dance music In my opinion, techno and dance music, is loud and bass driven music, so you would want a system that had plenty of power, especially low end power. I would also go with a balanced system over a single ended system. A true balanced system should g... | |
| Should I use long interconnects, or long speaker cables? I have my turntable set up in what most consider the worst possible location, tucked into a corner just behind and to the left of the left speaker. To make matters worse the table the TT sits on, sits on a suspended wood floor of the second story ... | |
| Bass Driver Size - how much better is an extra inch? Don't confuse frequency response with impulse response (impact) in regards to low frequency drivers. While a well designed 6.5" driver can cycle quite low in a well designed cabinet, it will only have a fraction of the impulse response of a large... | |
| Will 12 inch subwoofer be enough for an 18x20 room (with 10 ft cielings) Depends on what you listen to and how loud you listen to it.I have a 10 x 14 x 9 room and a 4 sub dba made up of three different brands; 2-13" subs and 2-12" subs. I don't listen real loud very often but on occasion I have pushed the room to 105 d... | |
| 1st Post Intro & Ramblings Much appreciated.Thank you | |
| 1st Post Intro & Ramblings The next step is the tried and true golden triangle. This is where you start, measuring tape in hand. From that starting point, you can start tweaking the position for the best 3D image. I would like to hear more about this process if you don't mi... | |
| Adding a sub woofer? Hi Ryan,Depending on how large your room is, what types of music you like to listen to and how loud you like to listen to it, a single PSB 250 or even two maybe too small.What are the pros and cons of using the sub's preamp level inputs vs the spe... |
