| Subwoofer line array for 2 channel I guess the question im trying to solve is:Is a column or stack of modern day class D amplified subwoofers more effective than some of the older huge woofer columns found in mega systems that use older outboard amplification...l can tell you as fa... | |
| smaller speakers for critical listening? I haven't heard them yet but l wouldn't definitely audition a pair of Kef LS 50 meta powered monitors... or the non powered...the last generation was hard to beat sound per dollar per size.... | |

| My experience adding subwoofers to 2 channel It is like crossover building makes total sense. If l ran a test tone sweep through the mains with subs off the bass started falling off pretty steady below 50hz. Now it stays flat down to 25hz. It's the closest sound to a real drumset that ive ha... | |
