| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers Regarding the Adcom GFA-555 amps: @amtprod wrote: Is Jon Morris doing the refurbishment?! Yes, that is who I sent them to. He ordered boards and built them while I was getting ready to ship them. Between the weather hurdles and ev... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers Just and update, I founds some Arcici stands and am ordering some herbie’s dots and gliders before installing. The stands are about 45# (shipping was more than the stands) and I think the speakers are over 100#, so I am waiting on the dots to asse... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers I think the stands are made by Arcici. | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers I found a set of speaker stands, they weigh 40# each and are designed in two pieces to fill bottom with sand. Does anyone know anything about these? They were commercially made as I have seen several of them over the years. Good constructi... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers The floor is vinyl that looks like wood on a concrete slab. | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers The main room is 28x32, with the speakers on the 32' wall. However, there is another 14x28 (open) space/room at the rear of this room, so it is a lazy "L" with one wall being 56'. There is no other wall where the speakers could be located. | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers @mswale - thanks for your post. I think the room is driving the issues, but the room is also what I want. I rarely sit down to listen to music, as much as I would like to. I spend my days working in and around this space. My quality... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers @robert53 - Yes, the stock power cord on the amp. @porchlight1 - I have heard about this filter, seems the reviews are mixed... most say it improves bass but muds higher frequencies. Don't want to do anything to foul the existing clarity.... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers Regarding finding a mono signal to test my existing amp in bridged mode, it looks like this is easily accomplished with the minidsp 2x4hd. I have been thinking about getting one of these as it appears to also be a solution to my preamp/subout pr... | |

| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers I’ve been thinking I could run my amp in bridged mode to test the affect of more power. Is there a good album or other recording that I could get a good signal on one channel only? It puts out 620W @8ohm in bridged mode. | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers I made sturdy pedestal bases filled with sand that must weigh about 35 lbs @ritter06 can you elaborate on your stands on how they are constructed? Did it effect the bass? | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers I should clarify this, I listen to low to moderate levels because I am caregiver for my folks and they live with us. Mom is mostly deaf and if played at higher levels she picks up *some parts* of it and it drives her to distraction. She claims it ... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers Well, I have received lots of good ideas, thanks and keep the advice coming. Acoustically this room is a mess, will be trying to figure out how I can improve it. I am intrigued by the DBA method, wonder if four subs would be enough for my space.... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers On a side note, the HT is 5.1.4 with speakers in the ceiling for the atmos. I replaced a smaller sub with the JBL because it wasn’t getting enough energy into the room. I haven't tried using the JBL with the 2 channel system because I think th... |
