| Making active speakers with 4 Gallo A'Divas Hi Manoterror, If these are single full range drivers, Why would you need an electronic crossover?

| "American Sound" Speakers I believe the time of "British Sound" has come and gone. As technology improves we all are listening to more accurate. There certainly isn't a Chinese, Danish, Japanese or German sound. That laid back mid range still exist and we think of that as ... | |
| Do you listen alone or with guest s I am with Hotmailjbc, My family and friends probably thing of me as the audio authority, but really don't want to discuss it. Occasionally I'll hear "you should hear Tim's tunes" or rarely my wife will want to hear a song she might like that I was... | |

| Transmission Line Bass I have heard very good bass all types of inclosures, including Transmission Lines, as it has been alluded to here already, the line can be quite long and quite frankly, the transmission line enclosure is the toughest to get right. I believe that i... | |
