| Subwoofers with room correction built in? Well the just of it is, the ones I built work great and the plate amps your asking about are very close. It's worth your while. Along with room treatment, DSP is a great tool and pretty easy to use..Mic position is the key if you ask me? Right whe... | |
| Sub placement I suspect you’re getting the bass delivered at two or three different times.The floor still transfers the bass waves which are quite long, FASTER than the drivers do through the air. Wood or Stone are quit good sound transfer materials. Wood even ... | |
| Speaker magnets Field coils have been around a long time. They add a lot of weight to motors and generators/alternators. A 150lb starter of old is 40 lbs at most now. Fixed neo magnet starter motor, the solenoid is almost as big around as the motor.They say FC ... | |
| Speaker magnets OP if you have any information on the drivers, that would help YOU build the correct size enclosure.Second if you don’t have or can’t find the specs on your drivers, there are tools to help figure out certain thing about drivers. Parts Express has... | |
| Why the cost increase? As always Master M your approach is value minded and very enlightened.I’ve been watching my nickel and dime projects turn to 5 and 10.00 dollar and now to 100-1000.00 dollar projects.It did take 50 years though.As for the 2 X sweet spot I’m just t... | |
| Parasound A21+ vs Adcom GFA-585se Parasound + 1 always been fan.. I use to really like certain Adcoms too. The 5800 was a wolf in sheep's clothing. Serious amp. I had all the Adcoms Except the 585. LOL The new SE I'm sure it has to run cooler...The old Adcom would heat a small co... | |

| Why the cost increase? Master M how are you doing my friend? Has the cost of goods slowed down your endless pursuit of "The sound". It sure has slowed mine..The human factor, ya just never know.. The best of the best on AG.. pretty dog gone versatile I'd say..The thread... | |
| Moving the sweet spot You know Master M has two different spots he listens to. I can't remember the reason but both have their strengths and weaknesses for listening.Maybe he'll chime in..Regards | |

| Downward firing subwoofer The higher the Q rating of the Passive the easier it responds to the active driver. So a light cone, return spring and surround would add to a higher Q (Quality). Those types of passive are to blend the lower and upper octave of the driver. In oth... | |
| Moving the sweet spot Yup lowrider57 has got it. Adjust one speaker for one ear. Set the camber, caster and toe in/out THEN closer or further for DB gain or loss for your ailing ear. I found the biggest thing about the seated position is height in relation to the Bass... | |
| What does a uncentered speaker sound like if you refoam and don't get the cone centered. I've had to remove new dust caps to add phase plugs. Talk about sweating bullets. I managed to do the job but you see where the old cap was. Performance wise adding the phase plug was a big improvement.I've removed a lot of dust caps and replaced ... |
