subwoofer

I am trying to fine tune the phase for a Rhythmic L12 and a near field setup. The subwoofer is behind the listening position. Subwoofer is crossed over at 80hz via the amplifier crossover. Posted is a snapshot of the RTA using Pink PN with a sequence length of 64k, full range. Also included is...

I built a pair of Zaph ZD5 speakers a couple of years ago and finished the matching center channel speaker a few months ago. After that, I was thinking I was done building speakers for a long time. They're always WAY more work than I inticipate and I've got plenty of other distractions. I've...

Hi, My current setup: Tidal> Laptop> S.M.S.L M300 MKII> Edifier R2800 powered speakers. Thinking how to add sub or two subs to the system. If one powered sub. Just need connect dac to sub and sub to speakers. Correct? Thinking of JBL 310s and maybe upgrade to JBL 308P MKII speakers. If...

Hi all, on a lark I find myself the proud owner of an RBH SV-1212NR subwoofer. This thing is 38” tall, weighs 110lbs, and is completely passive. I’ve got a lot of questions, but the two most pressing are these: 1) I’m using a XLS 1502 in bridged mode. The sub is rated for up to 2400W, so the...

Hi Guys I’ve just setup all my new Monitor Audio Bronze speakers, loving them! I’ve been running a Q Acoustics 3070S as my sub, it’s not crap, but it’s just “so so” I reallly want a better quality bass, but not too much as to upset my neighbours above me! I live on a ground floor flat, it...

It's rather new so so far I've got "opinions" based on listening experience prior to the release of this sub. I value that, some of those opinions are inteligent and a worthy experience. However, I'd like to get an opinion from an ASR member who is tough on audio BS, but is not judging the sub...

I built two of these. They feature a rigid compact design with force cancelling. Each subwoofer contains two Dayton Audio UM18-22 drivers. 25mm baltic birch baffles 18mm baltic birch otherwise Pocket holes could be filled and sanded I didn't drill routing holes for the wires but that can be...

@carlob mentioned that my subwoofers looked interesting and suggested I created a thread to share a bit more information, including of course objective measurements. I'll start out with a more subjective / informative post to share a bit about the product and concept, then I'll add an additional...

So, I'm thinking on getting a sub for my room as my self-given birthday present. My room is small, and my budget is limited so I want to buy a good subwoofer which can go as low as 20hz or so if possible, it probably will be the only one I may be able to buy in a long while, so I better do it...

This article seems to go against a lot of what I hear on the forum: (Is this guy just trying to sell something?) https://www.acousticfields.com/why-you-should-never-place-subwoofers-in-your-corners/ "So don’t buy into this culture of putting the subwoofer in the corner. And definitely don’t...

I am currently running the smsl su8 DAC. I have that plugged into my PC via usb. I then have the monitor2usb connected to that via balanced cables to the monitor2usb input 1. From the monitor2usb, I have my two monitors connected to monitor A output. I then have monitor C, the mono channel...

I’m still using a PSB Subseries 9 subwoofer and was hoping to replace it with two Rythmik subs (I do not have room for three or four subs). My dilemma is there is virtually no market for a used PSB 9 subwoofer in which, after shipping/eBay & PayPal fees, I end up with anything more than $150...

Good afternoon! Please help me what to take to listen to music rock/blues/jazz in a regular room 12 m^2 (130 ft²). There is no opportunity to listen. I've been reading forums for a week now and just get more confused. Dac Topping d50s or e30: Presonus r65 / r80; Adam T8V; Hedd 05; Adam T5V...

Hello, after buying a pair of small 5" actives for nearfield, I just need a good subwoofer to finish to setup and I have a few general questions/topics. Alternatives It seems that a lot of people are using hi-fi subwoofers with an external crossover because you can get much more for your money...

I am planning to build a simple amplifier switch box so that I can easily connect both my Onkyo AVR and Onix 2 channel amp to my front speakers. I have a REL Quake subwoofer connected to the AVR via the LFE output. The Quake also has a High Level input which is designed to be connected to the...

Just wanted to pick the brains of the ASR crowd on the subject matter.

Video for Audiophiles By, Amir Majidimehr This is a presentation I made to the Pacific Northwest Audiophile Society. As the name implies, they are heavily into audio. So I thought it would be good to present video in the context of what audiophiles would want to learn. The presentation is...
