Sub recommendation to augment Klipsch La Scala's ???
I have Klipsch La Scala's Heritage Series and love them. But am looking for a musical sub to augment them in the lower registers. Must be musical, fast, and dynamic to keep up and give me the visceral kick drums I'm looking for. I listen mostly to Jaz / Blues / Classic Rock.
I'm thinking ported in Liew of sealed configurations. I tried my Revel B15 sub pair and it was OK bot even with significant xover work didn't really integrate well with the speed and dynamics of the La Scala's.
Thanks in advance.

I listen mostly to Jaz / Blues / Classic Rock.Are your two B-15s in the corners behind the La Scala's? Why not fill the other corners with the B&Ws slaved from the B-15s? Two B-15s should be more than enough subwoofer. I don't buy into the speed and musical aspect. In my experience speed is usually associated with sub placement. Along with location, poor optimization and EQ control hinders integration or musicality. Kick drum timing is often an issue with polarity which can vary from track to track on the recording recording itself. Matching with a horn sub when your already tight on space? Not exactly sure how but Magico seems to do well with a sealed box with their Ultimate One's. While Revel's B-15 Optimization procedure is quite dated it offers much more control than many of the suggestions here. I wouldn't use Revel's suggestions of Y connectors and high pass filter. Are you using their LFO devise and disc or a 1/3 octave RTA? Good luck with it. |
How I wish I had that kind of room again. A pair of Lyngdorf W210’s would be perfect, in that situation. They certainly sell quickly! https://www.audiogon.com/listings/subwoofers-lyngdorf-tact-audio-w210-subwoofers-pair-wood-veneer-la... and https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649360945-tact-w210-subwoofers-lyngdorf-w210-subwoofers/imag...
