    Why??? Because with the cash you spent on sixteen of the 1500SUB drivers you could have bought maybe three of the W1500H drivers?

    They aren't available yet anyway... Harman Japan is jumping the gun.

    What have you all been doin with the SUB1500´s ?
    I'm evaluating a pair, each one is running in a 3.4 cubic foot (gross) volume tuned to 28 Hz. Slightly larger volume than the HB1500 and tuned slightly lower (same physical size as the Citation 7.4 sub).

    You like bas reflex then, why not the closed boxes?

    No, I actually prefer these volumes sealed for my listening room.
    I wanted to evaluate several options.

    but have you finnished evaluating these SUB1500 ?
    So you are going to use these in 3,4cu sealed cabs.
    I presume corner placed.

    No I haven't finished yet.

    I'm currently using them with the second pair of 240Ti's I stole off eBay recently. Vented, they add very little extension to what the 240Ti's can already produce and they need to be run at -8 dB to keep from drowning out the 240Ti's.

    I would most likely run them vented with the hybrid 4430's I'm working on. At least that is the intent.

    Sealed they work extremely well with the hybrid 18Ti's (charge coupled 4406 networks) and modified L212's (Electro-Cap metallized polypropylene bypass capacitors installed) I've tried them with so far.

    I´m still figuring of I should run them in 50liters or 65liters or 80liters or 100liters cabs sealed...

    Has anybody been making any measurements to see what the big difference is?

    The answer to that Kor is based entirely on whether or not you can aquire a pair of 1500SUB transducers. If you can then the answer is "hell yes". If you can't then the answer is "hell no".

    Niklas, I would go with 85 to 100 liters and call it a day. If you have some nice EQ available then go with 55 liters.

    This is SO easy if you have B380's. Put Sub1500's in them and plug the ports with plumbers' test plugs. Dispense refreshing beverages as required....

    See this earlier thread.

    Exactly!
    Run 'em sealed or leave 'em ported.

    Anyone think of putting a 1500SUB in place of the second 2234H in a 4435 and bi-amp the whole mess? Heck, tri-amp it!
