Velodyne ULD-18 or Audio PHysic Rhea sub....

Kana813...Where did "Uncle Mike" come from? Just "Mike" will be fine, thank you. And no, a high crossover point did not account for my "poor impression".

Curt...As I stated, I wasn't trying to offend you, just stating my opinion. By the way, would you mind listing some of those "subwoofer designers" that use Velodyne as their reference? Finally, I completely agree with your final statement. ALWAYS let your own ears decide. The best product for you is the one YOU like the best! Regardless of what anyone else says (including me).

Ezmeralda11...Good post, appreciate your contribution.

Just Mike- "Uncle" is a term used here in Hawaii for those who share their mana'o(knowledge or stories) with others.

Ezmeralda11- "slow and non-musical were Just Mike's terms notmine. At a 60 hz crossover point and levels correctly set, the Velodyne does not call attention to itself and fills in the bottom octave nicely in my current listening room.

I'm sure there are better subs. The best I ever owned were a pair of six foot tall custom built transmission line Epiks which tipped the scales at 400 lbs each. They produced a wonderful sense of space and air.

Aloha.

Dan...Gotcha, thanks for the clarification on "Uncle" ;-)

I bet those Epiks were amazing, in what timeframe were they made?

Mike- The Epiks were circa 1984, before I moved to Maui.

Aloha.

I love the ULD subs. I think they are the best sub for music.
