Hey,


I got mine today. It's built to last, I can tell you that. The finish is beautiful (I got light oak).

I connected it via low-level to my reciever. Put the Xover on my reciever to 100hz. I set the gain to about a quarter and fired up some test tones. Waay to much bass. I then turned it down a notch till I could just hear it appart from the mains and then turned it down just a bit more. Perfect. Playing with phase didn't help in my case, it made the sub sound thinner. Back to 0° it was.

I listened to some of my cd's which had lot of bass content in them, without the sub the bass sounded muddy (thanks to my room). Then I set the speakers on small and turned on the sub.

Ok this was how it was supposed to sound. The big advantage of a sub is that you can place it wherever you want. The bass was deeper and alot cleaner. Because the mains didn't have to produce any bass anymore the mid cleared up alot aswell. If i have to describe the bass like it is now the words deep, clean and tight come to mind.

I fired up some dvd's aswell. Some scenes are just jawdroppingly nice. The bass isn't heard anymore but it gives you a nice butt massage in exchange.

For the price this sub is simply the biggeset bargain out there. I've heard many subs that cost more then two times the price of this one and still would have to give up against this one in terms of sound quality.

I'll test some more tomorrow..
