| Wendell Diller: "You don't wanna put a subwoofer with a Magneplanar; it doesn't work." bass frequencies are known to be omni directional, so it has never made sense to me why the dipole sub topic gets significant air play, if in fact the subs are truly producing 100-120 hz output and below - i suppose that for even good subs there i... | |
