Thank you Frazuer1...
Trip got delayed a few days as I forgot that my Swedish passport was only good
for five years. On Tuesday morning I will know if I can get a temporary passport
in a few days.
Had the pleasure seeing Tate again, I have done some substantial upgrades since the last time I saw him. I hope he liked what heard. I also gave him the earthquake experience
4 x 18" long throw woofer driven by a 2000 watt per chanel and a sweep from 1hz - 100hz
Tate could chime in on the experience.
After he left I decided a movie night would sound fun with the
2/2000 but with that I had to go in and re balance the output levels
and distances (didn't want to screw around with Audessey) so my trusty analog Radio Shack meter got the main duty. Normally I keep the crossover for the subs at 80hz as it allows for a smooth transition between the mains and woofers. But I was very curious
if maybe 100hz would make the presentation a little livelier....
The movie: The Accountant
Ben Affleck plays a high functioning autistic accountant with some
very special skills, he's a mathematician of the highest order and with that he's accounting skills are highly sought after by the bad guys. One of he's special skill sets are weapons, but mostly a 50 caliber Barrett which if you are familiar with the weapon is an amazing killing machine. I like my movies loud and dynamic, and last night it clicked. The first shot out of the gun literally shock my core the air pressure and and the physical effect on your body
makes for a very real experience (if you ever been next to a large caliber weapon when it's fired) you know what I'm talking about. The 2/2000 took every thing I threw at them coming very close to 1kw power in the peaks.
A little bit bit of tweaking helped the speaker a lot, one thing that I didn't try was adding an 1/8" layer of Sorbothane between the cabinet and driver and with that de-couple the drivers from the cabinet. That would most likely enhance the midrange a tweeter tremendously .
Im also curious what some more filler would do as it would prevent aback wave from the bottom of the cabinet.....
So many questions, with so many outcomes......... 🇸🇪
