    I recently acquired an UltraBass module from a L-212 setup ..
    its a powered 121 12 incher ... very capable sub

    Was told that it was the original choice to use with the 250ti's before
    the B460 was developed ...anyway, if you can find one, I think
    it would mate well with your new XPL-160's

    3 inch vc ?

    Like I'm going to find one of those here in redneck eastern NC where Bose is king. They were nice and ahead of their time. I just wonder if the 121 was the first powered sub ever built for home use. You have a rare beast there. I'll bet that sub amp is better than most built today. http://audio-database.com/JBL/speaker/l212-e.html

    The L212 Ultrabass is a good sounding music sub that doesn't play very loud, and usually now has a non-functioning amplifier. 4313B will tell you it's hard to beat for sound quality, provided you get enough of them together.

    There's nothing wrong with your 2235 - have you noted any specs on the enclosure type and tuning you're using? It should be great for music and movies, though it will run out of steam on movies if you have theater level or louder tastes. What amp are you running it with?

    Lastly, look around on Ebay or Audiogon for a Velodyne SMS-1 - it's an active crossover with built in auto room EQ - you should be able to get much better sound with little work, and do even better with some tweaking.

    Enjoy the speakers.
