| Comparison of various subwoofers for 2 channel audio @mijostyn Yes, in the theoretical world, adding a passive HPF around 80 Hz would decrease distortion in the rest of the sound frequency for the electrostatic speakers, but the distortion is so low in the electrostatic speakers, that I'm not sure... | |
| Comparison of various subwoofers for 2 channel audio @rhg3 yes, it looks like the swarm arrangement for subwoofers was a popular topic about 5 years ago: seems like many agreed that 4 subwoofers was ideal, and that using 4 subwoofers even precluded the need for DSP. @mijostyn No crossovers in u... | |

One of many possible solutions, as the next post by @mrdecibel went from 2 subs to 1. It's great to hear the variety of approaches hear to 2 channel music. I th... | |

| Comparison of various subwoofers for 2 channel audio @carlsbad2 Just prefer the natural sound, as I only listen to acoustic music. @james633 The bass in the listening position is great. Near perfect, although perhaps slightly loose on occasion. I was just going to daisy chain the two subs off... | |

| MC-MM-MI CARTRIDGES . DO YOU KNOW WHICH HAS BETTER QUALITY PERFORMANCE? REALLY? @knock1 I suppose a more proper imitation of @rauliruegas would be something more like this: WHAT KIND OF STUPID QUESTION IS THIS? DO YOU NOT HAVE A BRAIN? DO YOUR EARS EVEN WORK!?…OBVIOUSLY YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ANYTHING! (As in life, so ... | |
| MC-MM-MI CARTRIDGES . DO YOU KNOW WHICH HAS BETTER QUALITY PERFORMANCE? REALLY? @rauliruegas Disclosure: this is not my typical response, but I am simply going to channel your personality, and the way that you respond to others in this response, and perhaps you may learn something: What kind of stupid question is this?
