I want more bass…


Superb pair L’Instrument large horn speakers with two 12” woofers in each speaker.
So how to get more bass? My PassLabs XA25 was too little, my Luxman M900u was too sweet, of course these are not party or club speakers but my guests who are not audiophiles (you know the one’s who ask what are those? I say tubes…) let’s call them the sound bar set!

These speakers are rated down to 18Hz can anyone suggest the best value amp that can deliver bass to these speakers take control and make them move? 98dB sensitive by the way…

Give me some used cheap but real good amps to try please. Exposure? Class A. Not my weak knee’d Bouyrrang A50 300B 😉

Even my D240 MKII Audio Research seem not to push them deep and strong enough for the sound bar set. Can’t imagine I need a subwoofer…

Wait!!  I had the XA25 and it produced a lot of bass. It was more resolving then the First Watt amp I had but the lack of bass is not the XA25 IMHO.

I hope to get one back again someday.

I found bass when I got rid of the cheap industrial  receptacle s I has put in and I swapped  them out for the tip of the line furutech  plugs. That was a huge difference.  The industrial  plugs really sucked. They are mid way between hospital  grade and basic. Go try a furutech  receptacle  and sit back and enjoy 

I suspect it’s could be the room., usually too big for the speakers, I resist subwoofer to get good bass.Until I finally gave in. As long as the sub were dial correctly.Your system will be benefited from a good bass.

I’ll connect a sub to this system and see what happens…

Thanks everyone for you comments ✅

Bass Counts!! 

Are those speakers bi-ampable?

If so buy a Class D ganfet and power them.

Better strategy is to buy 4 good subs and power them with another amp.
