subwoofer

Hi, I would like to add a subwoofer to my system that I use 70% for music and 30% for moovies. I see good reviews of the SVS SB1000 but where I live (Hong Kong) the prices are insane (double the US price): around USD1,200. I understand SVS in the US is great value but is it still if you pay...

Hey, I was looking for insight into a new subwoofer build for myself. I have built five subwoofers. The earlier projects were not the greatest. Lack of tools, knowledge, and skill. I have come a long way and would like to tackle a bigger project for several reasons. All my subs have been...

What value should I choose for the HIGH CUT knob on Yamaha? Revel specs: Low Frequency Extension 55Hz, 50Hz, 45Hz (-3 dB, -6 dB, -10 dB)

So I recently went into the streaming space with a WiiM Ultra and added a Hypex Ncore NC252MP amplifier to that setup. All good stuff so far. Next up is to get a couple of reasonable speakers for the setup, not because the one I have are crap. But because they don’t fit visually and are huge...

A 28" squared subwoofer landed(allegedly does single digits to 600hz linear<unknown SPL>). As it happens it's very shallow which makes it very appealing for some people (like me) so I have to ask: What's the catch? Why nobody else thought to build shallow subs like this? How does this compare...

Hello all, I’ve got a mindwrenching situation which I cannot seem to find the answer to. I’ve got a Yamaha A-S1100 integrated amp, and a Yamaha RX-A4A receiver. I’ve got a BK PB12 subwoofer that has SpeakOn and L/R RCA-jacks. One is for LFE the other in case you use a pre-amp with L/R pre-out...

Hi guys, I am stumped now that I have looked everywhere and couldn't find a definitive answer to this situation with my limited knowledge: I have a Denon X1600H and a full suite of in wall speakers already installed. The sub is a Definitive Technology IWsub 10/10. The AVR will be upgraded to a...

So, we (Sigberg Audio) have speakers and subs with built-in manual EQ, which is great - but we have many customers who doesn't know how to and/or doesn't want to learn how to use REW and a microphone to measure their system. Even though most here on ASR might find that to be "easy" and "worth...

I recently bought my first pair of hi-fi speakers, the Adam T5Vs. I saw they are a little bright so I downloaded the EQ settings by @Maiky76 and felt confident that I'd be satisfied with the results. Then I tried them and the mids weren't as clear as I'd expected, game sounds did not sound at...

I'm thinking of buying KEF KC62 for living room. The only concerning issue is that auto-standby of KC62 does not work reliably at low volume. I contacted KEF support, they told me that the feature could be turned off on the latest firmware. I could send KC62 to their service center for updating...

Hi, Recently I bought a second subwoofer for my stereo setup and I want to ask you about proper measurement process to get things optimized. The setup consists of KEF R3 speakers and two Arendal 1961 1S subs crossed at 80 Hz. Amp is Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 with DSP room correction built in. The...

This is for a secondary music system, a 2.1 system using the ADS 200's. The emphasis is on music, this will not be used for home theater. The ADS 200's are quite good speakers but lack any real low end below maybe 150~200 Hz. They need SOME KIND of sub to bolster their low end even for the...

Hi everyone - I have a quick-ish question, which might take longer on the answer. In my HT, I have a 7.2.4 setup. I have run and re-run Audyssey calibration a ton of times, moving things around. After calibration, I run REW and check the results. I have noticed that I have 5-10db dips in the...

The original Inkognito subwoofer launched in 2020, and has received awesome feedback from both customers and reviewers! When it ain't broke you don't fix it, so the improvements are mostly practical in nature. Below is the complete list of enhancements in the second generation compared to the...

Hey, I've been waiting for enough spare disposable income to buy a new surround sound setup for my TV (after my old receiver kacked it years ago), when suddenly it dawned on me that the subwoofer for my old system is active, and I got the idea that maybe I could use it in conjunction with the...
