What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid?
No my friend, you are wrong; this crossover was designed by a crossover engineer who was working for a company that sold speakers. It is a 3-way 4th order crossover, T-type. 92 DB efficient. What I'm listening to has solid firm bass. These are the capacitors that are in the bass leg of my crossover. https://www.parts-express.com/solen-100uf-400v-poylpropylene-capacitor--027-616 |
bache, polypropylene capacitors are better than teflon capacitors; no one let me do anything, I changed the capacitors because I wanted the best sound; they're my speakers, my crossover. Here are the ratings in capacitors, and teflon comes in down the list from mine; https://www.gearslutz.com/board/geekslutz-forum/434325-what-best-musical-sounding-capacitors-use-rec... |
orpheus, sorry ,crossover is yours, enjoy , but i dont understand, is not clear what type capacitor you install teflon or polypropylene? you first recommendation that ------ Without a doubt, the very best way to get high quality bass from your speakers is to replace the electrolytic capacitors in the crossover of your woofer driver with teflon caps.----- Sorry Greg Bache |
Make sure your amp’s input impedance is compatible with your preamp’s output impedance. I believe the rule of thumb is there should be at least a 10X difference between them. I have a system with book shelf monitors and I cannot believe how much difference filling the stands with sand/kitty litter has made! It solidified the entire soundstage, and extended the bass. I highly recommend that anyone using stands performs this, you’ll be amazed the improvement it makes! My floor standing speakers are also filled with sand, but that’s the way they came I didn’t experience the transformation as with the stands. |
