Re: More on subs
Very good experimentation, and useful information. Thanks for the feedback.
I have almost always found that flanking subs are a first priority, and one or two distributed subs are next in priority. But sometimes the priorities switch - Rooms that ha...

Re: 2 Pi Towers and thwack
Good to know! I learned a couple things from your comments:
1. Your room was overdriven with bass, possibly midbass, when the towers were supplemented with REL subs. Better to omit the subs in that case.
2. The REL subs have a gentle-slope cros...

More on subs
A friend has a really troublesome room. Nice gear but tough room.
We've implemented multiple subs in three steps in the past year or so. I'll spare you the details of why it took so long to bring it all together as there were a few technical obstacles...

Best Amps for 3Pi
I have a pair of 3Pi's and am well pleased with them. I run a pair of flanking subs. So far I have run the 3's with a single ended all triode/no feed back amp (Tubelab SSE) and with an ultralinear el84 amp (stock Dynaco st35). The ultralinear amp is good ...

Re: Amp for 4pi speakers
Nice to read that I (and the room) did things right there.
I guess my expectations were wrong here. Should have read your paper better.
Can I get good EQ with 200$ budget for EQ? If so, any advise?
Any thoughts about MiniDSP 2x4?

Re: Amp for 4pi speakers
The flanking subs did exactly what I would have expected, which was to reduce 15dB ripple in the 100-200Hz region to 6dB ripple. That's a "textbook case" of what to expect. Flanking subs can smooth the range a little lower than 100Hz - usua...

Re: Amp for 4pi speakers
Thank you for the answer, Wayne. I've read the post through and I realised that this was exactly what I tried to do a few years ago in our previous house!
This was my setup with (temporary) flanking subs:
This was the measurement with one ...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
I agree with Barryso......the improvement is not subtle.
I would try them approx. where your white boxes are in your pics. Right next to (and behind) your mains. Sometimes outside of them is better, but yours look pretty wide apart.
The trick here is h...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
You should try Wayne's multi sub trick. It takes things up a level or two.
I've been playing with flanking subs and a distributed (rear) sub with a pair of 2 Pi Towers. The addition of the subs, setup as Wayne suggests, takes the sound quality up quit...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
That's true.
And still they'd not likely be as good overall. The dynamics and uniform directivity are hard to beat.
Are you running flanking subs? It really was the icing on the cake for me lol.
I've had a few different types of loudspeakers over the...
