| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Don c55 have you exhaustively set up , tweeked then disliked 4 subwoofers ? It makes your sound stage that much bigger. The beauty part is that you dont make your bass any louder. each device runs a bit lower . And if set up properly , puts the b... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? I’ve always been able to hear where they are . And thats not good . Its the room and the placement and its the equalization. I am happiest I’ve ever been after duke and tim shed some light on dukes swarm . Its incredible. What it did to my mains ... | |
| JBL 250ti's or something new.... I am a big fan of jbl . I have several different pairs of them and would not say no to 250s if they were within a couple hours drive. Jbls are always rebuildable and if not a short wait on ebay and the part you desire shows up. Be easy to sell aga... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Cerber79No, it wouldnt work like that. I dont know the sub but perhaps two of them are passive ? Being bass is omnidirectional would still have the same effect as one sub . | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? I agree | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Dont sacrifice any imaging . Your bass response is what it is. If its not good enough to your liking , go to the store. Dial your imaging the best it can be. | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? They dont have to be the same. So long as you have some sort of control over them. | |
| Trying to find an amp that matches my tastes (aka death metal) Get a set of powered dj speakers and go nuts. Heavy is a pretty scooped sound . 2 ways will work fine. If you did go separates youll want minumum 75 watts tube or 150 watts chan solid state. . Why i say dj stuff is some people arent able to hear ... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? The sound is much less localized in my large room. Using just my mains when I’m alone is fine . You can sense the depth of bass all the way down its roll off (below 30hz ) but large room = more people . More people needs more bass . The subtly of ... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Bah ! Subwoofers ! You kids and your rock and roll music . My mains have all the bass response I’m sure some would like to have . But i also want six subs . And since i do what i want ..seriously though i think people do not use them properly to g... | |
| Need advice Be best to go for some vintage speakers . If you can call 30 yr old speakers vintage . For example a set of jbl l100t3 or jbl L7 can be found under a 1000 and will beat the hell out of anything you can buy for a 1000 these days.not even the same p... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? toe in helps keep reflections off the side walls . Improves clairity and stage. Dont toe in so far that they aim in front of you . Most you want is at you .my mains i set up with a building lazer. Centered , same angle and 40” from tweeter to rear... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Turn the crossover all the way down . To 50 or 63 depending what you have. Then try as i suggested which i learned from duke and tim. Put the sub in your chair. Now listen all over your room . You may have to crawl on the floor to find the hot spo... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Theres no magic to placing your mains . Rule of thumb is placing at eye height and the distance between them is how far either is from your head . 60 degree triangle . I’m not quite sure what you are asking but the soundstage is the biggest part .... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? No, its the physical position of the sub that dictates where the standing waves end up . Put the sub on your listening chair , now go around the room and find where the bass is loudest. Now put your sub there. The end. Leave your mains off during ... |
