Big Below 15k used that can play loud as heck
I moved into a way larger room, roughly 20x24 and the 802D’s just ain’t cutting the mustard. Looking for good options that can pound out bass in a large room with 500-1000 high end watts (pass or levinson etc)
Currently running 2 JL Fathom F113’s so it’s not low bass, it’s a speaker that can pump concert level music playing rap, hip hop, reggae, rock and classical/audiophile stuff etc. but I need my rig to blast rap and hiphop impressively more than anything.
At the volume levels you mention which your stated amps should be loafing at, i suspect you are listening in a deep cancellation standing wave trough…. need to move chair, speakers, sub, all three. …. How far are the B and W from the reinforcing back wall ? Are you low passing the B and W into the subs ? Try running them full range. Best to you. Jim |
Also, very respected agon member here w B and W successfully integrated Tekton Sub driver towers, they are 10” pro / musical instrument divers in a tall array cabinet Tim is not prone to over the top fanboy hyperbole and might be able to provide insight… @boxer12 , IF you go that route, i would definitely reinforce the factory Tekton box as it is much much less inert than your excellent B and W cabinet… Full disclosure, I have not heard Tim’s system, but given his wide ranging exoerience w Wilson to B and W and much more, I trust him.

(...Jim assumes that, at the levels desired, that one can stand still...*L*) There are less expensive ways to decimate sheetrock, but voting with the 'pro' purposer's... Eriks' down with your concept, but Jim (again, +) is pointing out that the levels targeted begin to turn the space into a larger version of the interior of a really large cabinet.... "Lets' get F'd up and watch the pressure waves blow the dust bunnies airborne!" Cruise the used at the pro outlets....Behringer with a soft spot for Crown amps myself, but If I go big I'm wearing muffs to keep what's left. Sounds like good clean fun to me, tho'....👍 Go forth and froth... @oldhvymec ...when the db's rise, do the neighbors run towards, or away? :)
No 'bots harmed in this production. |
