So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ??
Hello scm,    I utilize a 4-sub Audio Kinesis distributed bass array (DBA) system in my 23'x16' room that also has rather large openings (4-5'x7' pass-thrus along the front of one side wall and at one side of the rear wall.) to other rooms but I ... 
There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think
     The standard procedure for installing a 4-sub DBA system such as the AK Swarm, includes the final step of inverting the phase (simply by reversing the pos. and neg. connections on the sub) on each of the 4 subs sequentially to determine if an...

Dual Subwoofer Placement
Hello jimmy225,     Okay, you want to keep it at 2 subs for now.  That's fine, the most important thing to do is position each sub sequentially in the optimum spot, in relation to your listening position,  along the perimeter walls of your room.  ... 
I need a loudness switch
     Yes, the old loudness controls boosted both the bass and treble to compensate for the Fletcher-Munson curve reality of human hearing.    Strange, but this is also one of the 1st qualities I noticed with all the high quality class D amps I've ...

jimmy225: "To those asking about my setup, I will be setting up two Martin Logan 1100X subwoofers with a pair of Martin Logan ESL 9’s. I’m estimating my crossover will be around 60-80Hz. I have about 10’ from where the speakers and subwoofers will...

Hello DB,     Back at it again?  Good.  I'd suggest that as long as you have 4 subs active in your room (the 2 HGS-15 and 2  HGS-10), and they are properly positioned in a distributed bass array configuration, then you will certainly attain excell...

WOULD IT BE DUMB TO BUY A MARK LEVINSON NO 23.5

Dual Subwoofer Placement
jimmy225, I agree with millercarbon, a pair of good quality subs are very capable of providing very good bass, that’s well integrated with your main speakers, if you’re only or mainly concerned with the bass quality at a single designated listenin... 
WOULD IT BE DUMB TO BUY A MARK LEVINSON NO 23.5
Hello jeffvegas, Well, I recently bought a pre-owned Levinson 326S preamp for half of its $10K new price in 2005 and couldn’t be happier with it. That’s about 15 years old so I don’t think you’re totally nuts. The old Levinson gear holds its value...

     I had some computer hardware issues that are now rectified but I was unable to continue following this thread as closely as I was over the past 3 days.     Catching up today, I was disappointed to discover that a few posters have been attempt...

french_fries:" IMO outboard Subs are for movies anyway, unless your room is enormous."Hello french_fries,       I suggest that your belief that outboard subs are only for movies, is a very clear indication that you've never heard a high quality 2...
