I have a very small listening room,9x13x8. I run three subs! Now 4 would be ideal,and that will probably happen when I rearrange things a bit. All three subs are cut off kind of low for the speakers I am currently using. (Graham Chartwell LS3/5) not much bass below 75hz. I have not measured,but my ears tell me different. Is it the BBC bass hump?? I have two of the subs crossed at 55-60hz,the third crossed at 45ish. To my ears works and sounds great! I rotate a couple other pairs of speakers in my system and crossovers are changed accordingly.
Mmmm Crow tastes good...
So I have been anti subwoofer. And now I’m getting the hype (and maybe the vapors too).
I’m off all this week and remembered a crusty old subwoofer stashed in the dankest corner of my closet. Since the Quicksilver preamp I got a couple of months ago had a 2nd set of outputs I decided to put it on play.
this is a Pinnacle sub, 10” and 200 watts. I think I paid $129 on amazon a few years ago for home the water. Ironically it’s a sealed box implementation.
after a couple of hours of messing with it I think I have it fairly well integrated. I’ll have to make sure it’s not killing my neighbors. It’s not an audiophile sub but it really does add to the enjoyment of my patchwork system.
I do notice that, as with my stand mounts, there less bass at my siting position vs standing in the same spot. So I’ll have to figure out what’s going on with that.
But yeah, assuming I’m not blowing out my neighbors I’ll sincerely consider 2 good subs.
