| B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass? My guess is your amp. 300 adcom watts may not be enought B&W suck power! You could try bi amping one speaker off your amp or the other just run the bass like sugested above. Also make sure all your innerconnects are tight. One thing to remembe... | |
| Upgrading woofers in a/d/s L2030, need help Bad idear the crossover would never match the new wooflers, you will wind up with a uneven tonal curve.

| Full Range Speaker $15-$20000 Range? If you want openness try the Vandersteen 5a they are the most open I found and have the biggest soundstage. They also have built in subs so you get true biamping and work wonders with tubes amps since the amps supply the mids and highs. I use quic... | |
| B&W Nautilus 800.....where's the bass? Yea they are amp picky adcom don't have the best bass power also the right cables are important it's not thickness but the cable itself. I learned they the hard way also copper is not just copper. Maybe see if you can borrow some different cables ... | |
| Do speakers sound better on wood floor or concrete I Like the wood I have one system in my basement on concreat and one upstairs on wood. The wood room just has a softer sound but still has a snap to the music the concreat really dampens the bass and the carpet softens the highs. The key here is t... | |
| what is "unity gain" ? I beleve you use it for a external processor or amp. It basacally bypasses the pre amp and just passes the signal through so the other componment controls the volume | |

| DIY Perforated metal grills? Careful they tend to vibrate and also it will muttle the sound a bit, you will loose cliarity. If you are worried about sound quality I wouldn't recomend it. Speakers like Canto that use them are tuned for the grill and have done extensive reasear... | |
| B&W 802D vs Wilson WATT Puppy I aggree the B&W bass is not grate. It just doesn't have the deep bass and seems to have a sweet spot. The whatts is much better in the bass. When I listened to them I though they were even bass heavy but it was ina large wooden room that I'm ... | |

| Vandersteen V2W or 2WQ 2 totally different subs for different purposes. The v2w is the sub, the 2wq is a add on to the speakers to tighen the bass and make it deeper. A sub will cause the rummble and effects in a move that is the v2w that is what you want. If you don't ... | |
