| Your experience of moving to two subs Never heard of the term group delay before, but maybe that’s it. The Rythmik sub uses a direct servo motor system to control transient response precision. The SVS in comparison sounds like the cone is slower to change direction. If it’s phase alig... | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @james633 I totally believe your anecdote. I also think I have a fortuitously sized and featured listening room for low frequencies. My experience has been far easier than the average report about using single subs that I've read. Nonetheless, I'm... | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @soix Haven’t tried yet, but the Rythmik F12G is so much faster than the SVS SB2000 that it’s really in a different class. Is a different type of technology altogether. My plan for when I try putting them into play together is to use a copper pow... | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs The Rythmik Audio website's FAQ section that I've been re-reading since I bought my F12G sub seems excellent to me. One fine example: ( @soix ) "Cone excursion goes up 4x for every octave lower in frequency. So 40hz needs 4x more excursion than ... | |
| Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet? @stuartk Noiice! 😂 | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @soix I can feel it in my balls that loudspeaker woofer distortion is minimized by passing low frequencies to a subwoofer. That's how I know it's true. Would you like to see the napkin that I've deposited the evidence on? | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" My pleasure to help, guys. For anyone that is using SDFBs, I ended up switching back to the polished copper Sluggos in my amp after a brief time with the unpolished ones. It became apparent to me that, actually there is some small loss of fidelit... | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @ditusa Looks like I need to get busy reading to understand my options better. Appreciated! I'm also looking at some FAQs on Rythmik's website about integrating a sub and why they normally advise against using the optional speaker level inputs. | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs My ICs from pre to amp are balanced XLR. | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @erik_squires Ah, I see what you mean. I never went that way because I was doubtful of the purity of an active crossover's output and its circuitry. It would be interesting to try though. Does anyone use passive line level high-pass filters for su... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" @vandy357 That all sounds right, but I can't be totally sure about your amp fuses. You can call Mark at the phone number on the website URL I gave at the bottom of the review and he'll get you sorted out. | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs Indeed! | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" You can just use stubby little Nema 5-15p to IEC C13 adapters to connect the fuse box to an outlet. They sound good in my application. You may or may not need some extra support at the outlet with this method because of the leverage the weight of ... | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs What sounds good to me is what's optimal in my system. | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs I’m also now thinking that since my Rythmik is the one with the paper cone (vs aluminum) for faster response, and there must be more distortion involved because of the relative flimsiness of paper, that two subs working less hard would help increa... |
