| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello phusis and jwmorris, I think our disagreements and differences expressed on this thread can be boiled down to a difference in preferences and priorities. I could go into detail but I believe it basically comes down to both of your top pr... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello millercarbon, You know we both completely agree, based on personal experience, about how exceptionally effective the 4-sub DBAs are in virtually any room and with any pair of main speakers. The topic on this thread had switc... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? phusis: "This is tangential to your former examples of arguments in the vein of "there’s no stereo information in the bass, neither recorded nor perceived; symmetrical placement of subs is moot (at a not specified cross-over frequency)" etc., and ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello jwmorris/John, I just wanted to respond to a few of your statements on your last post:"Oh, by the way, my in room response is +/- 3 db from 100 to 6 Hz." and "There are frequencies below 20Hz used in some of today’s music". Your profile has ... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Thank you, atmosphere, for your numerous interesting and very informative posts. Class D Hypex and UcD power module designer, Bruno Putzeys, has stated that there's no such thing as too much feedback and that he's able to make a class D ... | |
| Short List of Amps I prefer over the Pass Labs XA25 or INT 25 Hello chorus, Pass Labs admittedly and intentionally adds some even order harmonic distortion to all their amp designs. This is commonly known to be perceived by humans as a euphonic overall sound quality similar to tube amps, which many dev... | |
| Parasound A21+ or PS Audio S700 monos? Hello naimfan, I think the A21 is a very good class AB amp but still think the S700s will equal or surpass the A21 in every single facet except price, size, weight, electricity consumed and excess heat produced. The A21 may be able to handle 2 ohm... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello douglas_schroeder, I have never employed 4 to 12 15" woofers in my room or systems in different configurations of large drivers reaching down well below 20 Hz. I've only employed a maximum of 4 10" woofers/subs in a single optimized co... | |
| small footprint Class A mono blocks and pre amplifier Hello br3098, No, because he's not being logical and could burn down his house.Tim | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello luisma31, For someone who claims to not know a lot about audio, I think you're doing pretty well and have a nice system. I think you benefited by talking with Duke and James at RMAF, they're both very knowledgeable and won't steer you w... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? big_greg:"Tim, it might surprise you to hear that the system with the best bass I've ever heard consisted of two subwoofers and that they were crossed over at 120. I was quite surprised at the crossover point, but there was no denying what I (and ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? luisma31:"It is funny you said "they sound" the beauty of bass in my system is I forget about the subs, I don’t tweak them, they are part of the room’s furniture, I totally forget these exist, I don’t "hear them". The only time I realize they are ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello tyray, The correct term for a distracting sound coming from the ports on some ported subs is chuffing, not cuffing. Chuffing does not occur on sealed subs because no port is utilized. You are correct, not all ported subs have chuffing.... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? big_greg and bdp24, I agree with you both that four independent subs allows for maximum adjustability and flexibility. I know from personal experience, however, that this level of adjustability and flexibility is not required for excellent bass pe... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hello smodtactical, I agree with bdp24, that four Rhythmik F12 subs would perform well in a DBA configuration and that four F18 subs would likely perform just as well but with a bit more deep bass power and impact. I think it's importan... |
