Subwoofer for classical music listener
That's what I thought!  I can't understand why he would have told me that.  Maybe it's because it was closing time on aFriday and he didn't want to be bothered transacting a cable sale.  Who Knows?!

stfoth:  I finally got around to the idea of trying the high-pass filter option.I called SVS to order the cables and the rep said I needed powered speakers to go that route.  I don't have powered speakers

I got to "systems", but I can't find where to post photos.Easier to send a PM

After several 18 hour days of unpacking and cataloging many thousands of records and CDs, and making wrenching descisions as to what to dispose of (at least a thousand) because they wouldn't fit on the shelves, I'm just about finished. After I fig...

Falconquest:  Your case is a lot worse than mine.  At least my house survived, even though three rooms had to be gutted.  Also, my equipment and media came back like it never happened.  I really feel for you.

Jafant: How do you PM on this site?Right now my room looks like a warehouse.when I'm finished with shelving the 1000s of CDs and records I'll send you a picture.  Might be a while.

It's now been about five months since I had the fire and began the posts. Well, the room is now beautiful with a twenty foot wall of empty built in CD and record shelves.  The equipment survived in great shape and sounds as good as ever.However, I...

Well, here goes again. Changing the Y splitters from Radio Shack to thicker audiophile cables has made an improvement with the sub. Seems to have smoothed out everything.  If anything, there seems to be a wider soundstage than without the sub.Plea...

Tablejockey:  I'm sure you're right that I haven't found the ideal setting and spot for the sub.I have limitations as to where I can place it (furniture, closets, doorways and most important, wife.) I also don't know if I have the fortitude for th...

Upon extensive listening, I've discovered that, although I love the sub, there is a definite coloration and lack of precise imaging when listening with it on. It's wonderful for selections with low bass, but in pieces with complex harmonics it doe...

Tablejockey:  When I'm ready, I'll start experimenting with two subs.I can see I'll have to get creative in setting them up.It would probably be an improvement over one.So far, though, I'm delighted with the one I have.Happy listening to you too!

I just fine tuned the bass of the sub by a method that some people might find useful.  Like, I'm sure, most new subwoofer owners, I had  the bass tuned higher than I should have.  Then I listened to two records of a classical symphony ( Mozart's 3...

Schubert: You're right. But right now I'm still in the "audiophile" stage.  When I settle down a bit I'll be "Bach."But, the audiophile stage is a lot of fun!tablejockey: I don't know where I'd put a second sub.  The opposite wall from the current...
