My high pass filter experiment and a couple of questions
I went down this 'High pass' road once. In the begining it made perfect sense. Then Then I started thinking about how my precious audio signal was being run through all this additional wiring and electronics molesting the signal along the way. Aff...

Good for you! You have discovered that more expensive kit doesn't always buy better sound. I also bought the SVS ultra for my son on a close out special. What a bargin! Paired with a SB-2000. Wow! it sounds incredible. We upgraded his amp to the ...

How big is the room?  
30 yr old speakers- time to replace drivers?
