REL vs JL AUDIO focker39,I would not worry about the rated power and look at total DB output if using in a home theater application. For music who cares as you will not be at the limit. I would guess you are seeing the difference between the efficiency of sealed ... | |
REL vs JL AUDIO deadhead1000,A swarm with mini subs would be interesting, especially for an irregular room. 4 duel driver 6.5” kefs (8 drivers total) subs would have a lot of surface area. In my head I alway like big drivers for bass but I know that is not scienc... | |
REL vs JL AUDIO For best sound with a sub you want to use a highpass. It can be in the preamp (most two channel preamps don’t have one) or external. The JL “E” line of subs has a highpass built in but no EQ built in. The Fathom line does not include a highpass a... | |
Low-pass setting 6db is what you want to use as the 3db point will give you a hump at the crossover point. If you can highpass (cut the highs to the mains) then 80hz would probably sound better as the “bass” drivers in the Kefs are tiny and will need to travel pre... | |
help me maximize my sonus faber concertinos I am a big believer that subs are critical to full range sound. Most rooms do not support full range passive sound and need correction below in the bass. With that being said far more important than the sub you use is how it integrate. Some option... | |
Bowers and Wilkins Nautilus 804 vs 804s Enjoy. Read up on crossover and the highpass filter to get the bass just right. Also sub placement matters a lot. | |
Bowers and Wilkins Nautilus 804 vs 804s Double post… | |
Bowers and Wilkins Nautilus 804 vs 804s flashmagnumNot to be rude but if you listen to house and hip hop you should skip these speakers all together. They simply don’t have deep or good textured bass. I owned the 703s which is a lower tear of the 804 and was amazing how much better othe... | |
Revel Performa F228 Be speaker... thoughts? Well I impulse bought a pair of these 228bes. They were a screaming deal, new in the box at used prices. I am still working through the setup with only about 5 hours on them but my opinion of them remains the same as my comments above. This is a v... | |
Recommended products for polishing Focal speakers I use a polymer based car wax on all my speaker. I have been doing this for 20 years and it has worked out well. Just use oil on wood. Wax on paint. | |
Focal 1028+Mcintosh MC275 Mac C8 tube pre might be safer with a solid state amp. $4500 I think. https://www.mcintoshlabs.com/products/preamplifiers/C8 | |
Any JBL 4367 owners or opinion? Ohlala,thanks for the input. I own and would be using two 12” subs highpassed to the 4367s. I currently use a MC462 that is 450 watts into 4 ohms. I see some comments about people not like Mac with JBL but I see a lot of picture with Mac and JBL….... | |
Focal 1028+Mcintosh MC275 I have heard both those pieces but not together. You should be fine to run them together. Probably will sound nice. Last time I heard the MC275 was on a pair of B&W 805D3 and it did a good job of taming the highs. | |
A friend told me JBL DD67000 is actually very bad speaker, is it true? Doodle,I also like the Salons and have come to the same place as you on a cheaper scale. After listening to a bunch of different stuff I have come to understand that I am super picky about frequency response (flat) and impulse response (impact or ... | |
Klipsch Forte III verses Heresy IVs Having heard both the forte iii and IV the IV is worth waiting for a deal on. The different crossover design/drivers make a big difference. I know you don’t want other speaker speaker recommendations but… it is audiogon lol, so… the JBL 590 is wor... |
