Coolest looking speaker ever ? All I've seen are a couple of pics, but I'm smitten. Plan on buying a set, just need to decide on what finish I want.The MBL 101s are also pretty darn cool looking. | |
Best 2W Speaker under 1500 Did you see that ACI is discontinuing the Sapphire III LE? Just noticed the announcement over at SMR-HT. Too bad, it is a great speaker. Wonder if they are planning a replacement. | |
subwoofer setup problem Try the passive filters. I use them and find them very transparent. Not only that, they have improved the sound of every main speaker I've tried them with. Because they roll off at a gradual 6db octave rate, they make the transition smoother AND i... | |
WATT Puppy 6's are being discontinued... I own the current Jaguars, plan on selling them to upgrade to these. I bet they'll more than give the Watt/Puppies a run for the money. They have the advantage of built-in amplification and EQ for the woofers. That to me is a practical advantage i... | |
Two subwoofers?? I've experimented with my pair of Titan IIs quite a bit. I've stuck them in the same corner (got the absolute highest output level this way). I ended up with one almost in the corner behind the main speaker and one about 2/3 of the way along the w... | |
Does using a powered subwoofer make better sound? Titan II LE is one terrific sub for music. Comparable to the REL Stadium III but at far less cost (direct). Their new Force should also prove to be a winner. Do some searches here, at AA and AR and over at the SMR site. Also, see the reviews in Po... | |
So how many people are using subwoofers My Jaguars on their own are pretty strong to the mid 30s. Adding a pair of Titan IIs makes all the difference in the world. It isn't just the added last octave, it is the openess and increased sense of "ease" over the whole upper bass and even int... | |
Bass Response and concrete floors The guys are right. Wood floors equal bloated, poorly defined bass. Kinda like using the loudness button. Concrete will seem to yield less bass, but it will be far more accurate and controled. You are lucky to have the concrete. Somebody else said... | |
Virgo user need advice for matching subwoofer? Well the most recommended subs for music certainly are the various RELs and the ACI Titan II LE. ACI has also added a new one called The Force which looks quite interesting to me for size/price/performance/flexibility. ACI continues to be my pick ... | |
Where's the info on new ACI sub? I'm really interested in this sub. It looks like a perfect candidate for stacking. 3 or 4 should put out excessive amounts of power and still be relatively affordable. | |
Best Kept Speaker Secret? I'd invest what is left in a pair of Titan II LEs or there newly introduced sub. Wonderfully musical and dynamic! | |
Musical Speakers that can provide dynamics for HT Draw, ACI has sold direct for 25 years. In fact, they are probably the leader in direct audio sales. Their reputation is as good as it gets. I've owned a number of their models and heard others, they've all been first rate. Generally their models ... | |
Musical Speakers that can provide dynamics for HT I'd take a good look and listen to ACI's new Talismans. They're not even shipping yet, but they look to be absolute killer. They have ACI's new powered parametric EQ woofer system for the ability to really fine tune to your system and room. IMHO v... | |
Pros and Cons of Ribbons The biggest downsides seems to be reliability and integrating with regular cone drivers. I've heard some great ribbons, (Maggies and Apogees). I guess the key is to really listen and to get a feel for what the company is like that manufactures the... | |
Best setup? - - ACI Titan II LE Ken, I would think it depends on your mains. I don't think there is a great deal of difference between the line-level and the speaker level adapters. I have found the passive filters for the main speakers to make a great deal of difference, they r... |
