Downsizing
If you are willing to DIY them, these are fantastic, small and under $500. The tweeter is IMO much better than the Focal. Massive motor keeps it linear, extended and flat past 20k. http://speakermakersjourney.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-lm-1-bookshelf-version.html You can build them sealed, ideal for a sub, or ported. |
@fast_mick In your case I strongly suggest you get an EQ. :) I mean, i would suggest bass traps, but you don't have any room for them. Get an EQ and clip off the peaks of the sub, this will at least let you bring the level up some what, plus the EQ will help you with integration. Do that before doing a lot of speaker/sub switching. |
erik, any thoughts on this DIY kit? It has little larger cabinets than the LM-1 you suggested, and may sound "fuller". http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-rs722cck-speaker-kit-curved-cherry--302-973 |
Dual woofers still go as low as 1 woofer, but have more dynamic range.
Lots of people like that Dayton tweeter but I haven't heard them. If that's what you are looking for, the matching LM-1C is also an MTM. Check it! https://speakermakersjourney.blogspot.com/2016/03/introducing-lm-1c.html I apologize for the huge banner ads at the top, I am trying to get rid of them! |
