| Used monitor under$600 with good bass low levels So far so good.Just got those jbl's suspended and even though they don't come close to the merlins they are giving that same effect as the bolzanos. Only thing it's way off in tonal balance, well not way off but certainly off. The treble is suffer... | |
| Used monitor under$600 with good bass low levels Shadorne,I should have mentioned it earlier I thought others realised I am prudent in my efforts and take the smarter route. But then looking at my tt I wonder what others think?I assure you the suspension works, at the tt and the speakers.I belie... | |
| Ever discover cheapo speakers actually sound... Sns,Thanks for the heads up. I don't plan on moving away from the merlins. I just want to try building speakers, but I figured I should do something that will resemble a speaker that I liked meaning the bolzanos.I plan on going all atma-sphere jus... | |
| Used monitor under$600 with good bass low levels Shadorne,Close, you forgot skiis. They come with release bindings in case the doctors show up I can quickly dismount the craziness.I plan on consulting with Meniscus, they have been in the business for a long time. I will let them help choose the ... | |
| Ever discover cheapo speakers actually sound... Sns, yes I do and prefer things that way.But I still recognize when things are just awful or not good enough.

| Ever discover cheapo speakers actually sound... By the way, though I may be critical at times, I am the type of person that likes to enjoy things and make the best of life. When I visit friend's homes I don't have thoughts of how terrible their systems are in comparison to my system. I always s... | |
| Ever discover cheapo speakers actually sound... Thanks for the inputs.When I first turned on the inexpensive jbl's, they sounded horrible, but after some time improved tremendously?Did they need break in, or is my hearing adapting to the new sound, I know they don't compare to my main speakers:... | |
| DIY Speakers, worth the hassles? Can anyone tell me which of the speaker kits shops would be best at helping me create a new speaker design, like help design a crossover and the determine the cabinet volume. There is a speaker I recently discovered and liked very much, the bolzan... |
