speakers

Hey guys I got the Adam T5V based on Amir's review and above ~200 hz to my ears it sounds phenomenal. But the bass is really wonky. For some reason it doesn't have much below 100 hz, and 100-200 hz it's quite boosted it feels like, or maybe 100 hz and lower is not there and 100-200 hz is normal...

A popular chain in our area (ListenUp) which used to carry a lot of Revel and PSB seems to have dramatically shifted their offerings towards BW, Polk, JBL, and Klipsch. Just seems sort of strange. I'm wondering if it has to do with tariffs or just yearly trends in sales.

I bought the speakers online, so I haven't had a chance to listen to the sound. The speakers have a frequency range of 25-22,000 Hz, which is why I was interested, but unfortunately, the bass sounds "boxy," while the midrange and highs are very good. Speakers are not new and actually a little...

Back in the heyday when Parts Express was still offering some nice finished cabinets, was just starting into speaker DIY and thought these looked really promising… I also bought some of the cabinets for the day when I wanted something nicer than my usual DIY cabinets. Anyway, bought and...

Background: I'm looking into vinyl wrapping some old speakers (axiom m80ti with a vp150 in the center). I made a mock up of the concept below. Questions: Should I use some kind of car vinyl wrap for this, or maybe removable wall paper? Has anyone tried this and found success with specific brands?
