Hi, i'm new to speaker building and wanted to understand a bit more about curves in vituixcad, to be precise i have this tang band w6 2100 and if i put it into a closed box of about 16 liters ( the vas of the driver is about 16 liters) i get this response ( black line in the SPL graph), but if i...

Which would best compliment my 2.0 system? I’m running a pair of Kali LP6V2s, and I’m looking to get a bit more low-end and generally just fuller, more powerful, punchy bass. This sub will be primarily used for music, with occasional movie use. I know the Kali WS 6.2 measures well, but all...

Having spent a long time trying to find a good sub in the $400-500 range for my second floor apartment, I gave up because shipping a sub to Denmark from the US adds another $150 to the cost. So I'm forking out the $650 for the Kali WS-6.2. I have two concerns: 1. My living room doesn't have too...

I have the Adam T5V studio monitors and I'm looking for a fitting 10" sub. The matching Adam T10S sub has an annoying standby feature which makes it a no-go. I live on the second floor so I want to be mindful of the people living downstairs. That means down-firing and bottom-ported subs are...

I’m running a R26 DAC (happily) into a Madrigal Proceed AVP2 Pre/Pro (baby Levinson). I only listen to Stereo Sound (no effects, no HT). I have run dual subs historically, however, I just learned I’ve been listening to the Proceed’s internal DAC! It sounds and has sounded “good” to me. Unless I...

I've got a Sumiko S.9 sub that I hope to connect to my amplifier wirelessly. The Sumiko Wireless kit is quite old, I can't find any specs on them, and I'm concerned about timing errors. I've been looking at the various Wireless REL solutions but I'm unsure of the quality and which would be best...

When I bought my REL sub I used the high level connection as the instructions recommended. My amp was class AB, and that was the first case explained in the instructions. The high level cable has 3 wires: black, red, yellow. For an AB amp, you connect the red and yellow wires to the red binding...

I've been doing a lot of learning since discovering ASR recently. When it comes to subwoofers, I find a lot less data (at ASR and in general), and more of brand-loyalty or brand-shaming than for other areas at ASR. Even in the subwoofer comparison thread by sweetchaos, the frequency response...

Hello! This seems like the right place to ask about setting up a new speaker system. I recently found a pair of knight kn3030k 3-way speakers for a screaming deal. After that, I needed to fill out the rest. I got a polkaudio psw108 subwoofer, and a Sony str-dh190 receiver. Plus some speaker...

Hi I have a Bluesound Powernode (latest version) and Q Acoustic 3050i speakers (6 ohm, 100 wpc,) and I am very happy with the sound and performance. But...when I increase the bass to 4 and treble to 2 on the tone controls it sounds great but after an hour at very high volumes (75% approx of...

I’m wondering if upgrading my sub from KEF Q400 to one of the below candidates would have a noticeable impact? In that case which sub (and size) would you go for? - REL T7X - KEF KC62 - I considered SVS Micro 3000 and loved the app, but I don’t like how it looks. So unless it’s significantly...

I have been experimenting with my LS50 and Sub KEF Q400 for several years, and still cannot find the optimal sweet spot for crossover and sub volume. The issue is that I find a good setting based on one song and album (let's say Diana Krall - Wonderful) but later when I listen to another album...

I have a Pair of KRK 8G4 monitors connected to a KRK10S2 Subwoofer , I have crossover options from 60 to 90Hz on the back side of the woofer I am not an audio professional I just use them for listening to music and watching movies , I started testing with my ears and using my mobile app phone...

Hello everyone, I'm getting used to using REW with my UMIK-1, along with setting EQ curves for my 2 subwoofers using a MiniDSP 2x4HD. This is a pretty standard auto-EQ I did for my subs with a mini house curve. I didn't really do any individual tweaking yet (there are definitely a couple of...
