Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music?
Any recommendations for an 18" sub driver good for music? I heard the pro audio drivers tend to put out more mid bass than HT focused drivers like dayton UM18s.

@skinzy I am with you sir. I do not care at all if my system conveys ’what the musician intended’. Instead my only concern is maximizing my own enjoyment of the music.    
ScanSpeak Ellipticor-A50-II (anyone build them?)
I have a friend who just had these built hes blown away by them. Another friend who heard them said they impressed him more than commercial speakers many multiples more expensive.

@phusis I definitely am wrestling with this now. What if I got some 12 inch klipsch subs... maybe 4 or 6 of them and put them all over my room even at different heights. For that money I can buy 2x full marty gsg cabs with 21 inch mach 5 drivers (...

Seems like your flexing/bragging ? Why say 'a months salary' and instead just say you want to spend $20k.

@kenjit I find that its not easy to find a wood worker that will be willing to cut the wood to your measurements. Usually you have to go to a full speaker builder and if you do they often want to do the whole build and the labour costs become quit...

Made the move: Focal Maestro 3 to Focal Maestro EVO
