BIC America builds for HSU and they are the oem for other companies
Whatta Ya Think About Hsu Research Subwoofers?
I’m in the market to add one or possibly two subwoofers to my stereo set-up. I would like to spend $1,000 or less per unit, and that puts some of the higher-rated units out of reach. I came across an ad for Hsu, which I had not heard of before. I didn’t want a Chinese product and it turns out that Hsu Research is based in California and founded by Dr. Hsu, who has a Ph.D from MIT. Audio reviewer Steve Gutenberg gave one Hsu product a positive review. I was wondering if any of you have experience with Hsu and could share your impressions/recommendations with me.
My existing set—up is: Parasound P5 pre-amp with Parasound A21 amp; Martin Logan 60XT tower loudspeakers. Thanks!

Tim, I saw that you mentioned the “crawl method” for determining best position for subs. Does that involve moving the subs a little at a time and listening to the sound each time? i.e., being on my knees crawling about with them til I find the sweet spots? Good advice regarding the RCA cables. Oddly, I have the subs coming but don’t have the cables ordered yet. |
Hello Bob, The subwoofer crawl method is just a simple but very effective method to determine the optimum position in the room for each of your subs without using any expensive equipment, just you and your ears required. Here's a a link to a video explaining how to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV3oLLMgS-M If you'd like to learn more about utilizing dual subs in a room, along with the typically most successful room positions, I suggest you use Google because there's a lot of info on this subject.
