    I think a Freudian analysis would reveal that thelion doesn't really want to buy a sub at all, but is actually in the market for ADORATION.


    Perhaps he'd get more satisfying results on myshitdontstink.comic.

    All I can add is there is no Turnkey solution when it comes to loudspeakers and particularly subwoofers.

    The problem is integration with the room and the main speakers. And even then I refuse to accept a sub that sounds really impressive is in fact for real. Maybe for HT but if that is the case you may need to look elsewhere.

    My suggestion is just go buy one and try it out like the rest of us.

    The only way to learn this stuff is to grow with it and that take time.

    Nobody gets to dead right first time.

    Of course if you have a speaker like a JBL 4345 or a JBL 4435 a sub is somewhat academic.

    Talking Call me crazy...

    I don't mean to butt in with a non-JBL product suggestion but I stumbled upon this thread while trying to gather information about the Synthesis series. Impressive stuff, without a doubt. I'm only 19 but I've been a JBL fan since I can remember.

    Anyway, if you're looking for something that will just blow your mind I suggest finding a shop where you can audition a Definitive Technology Supercube Trinity Signature. Frequency response touches down to 10 Hertz. Not too shabby, but I don't know much. A family friend said he knows a guy who bought one. It was shipped to his house via FedEx Freight and comes in wooden packaging because styrofoam and cardboard was simply not enough.

    All that and I forgot a link

    http://www.definitivetech.com/loudsp...s.html#trinity

    I think all of Definitive Technology's upper end products are very fine looking as well.

    Resurrection of a dead thread.

    I'm looking at some "cheap" S1S-EX subs and have reviewed the relevant posts on this site. Ian's reply should have been first rather than near the end. Straight to the point IYAM.

    To me, "turnkey" would be having enough money to pay someone to buy whatever was needed to make my room sound right, then I walk into a completed solution. Of course, that's not happening in my current reality, so it's trial, tweak, and error, trial, tweak, and error.

    Always fun to romp through past threads and see everyone up to form.
    Out.

    Room size question

    I don't understand the size of the room and where these subs will play.

    At some point, I thought I read in this thread that the room was 8,000 square feet but I'm not sure. Obviously, if this is a measure of the rooms' length and width (e.g., the standard measure for real estate space, for example) this room would be a small auditorium, I suppose.

    Anyway, can you please be more specific as to the (1) length, (2) width, and (3) height of the room?

    A picture would be great!

    What is a troll anyway?

    I don't think thelion is going to answer. His last visit was 09-09-2006.
    Out.

    Maybe he stood too close to a 16Hz test tone and spontaniously combusted
