Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room

This is what I wrote (and for everybody to see): "Good deep bass in a small room is quite simply impossible." That is simply true for the reasons I gave.

Ah, now you changed your post: you added the 'good' that you did not include before. That is dishonest and misleading. But now you reinstated the word 'good' your comment is no longer relevant because it does not address the quality of the bass. And that precisely was my point.

Give me a break. What are you talking about? I edited my post to quote exactly what you said. And what you said is patently untrue.

Have to agree with Geof.

We are not saying not to use acoustical passive tuning 3 out of our 4 soundrooms do use some kinds of treatment however, our last 2 rooms at the New York audio show sounded fantastic and used 0 bass traps.

The active room correcton employed today by Anthem was designed to deliver flat bass reponse regardless of the room

We had thunderous deep tight bass in a ordinary hotel room 16 by 14 and the Persona 9H are rated flat to 17hz.

We looked at room plots before and after rooom correction and it was not subtle.

In the Legacy room Aeris produced clean tight bass in the same size room.

The Boehmer room correction is extremely advanced 0 bass traps in that room as well.

The Calibre with Wavlet provides a complete solution and would make an excellent starting point you can allways add bass traps and the amount of bass is tuneable.

I think it was John Atkinson who said "Ahhh...big room, small problems".
