This guy does not contribute or ask any questions. All this person does is harass and post silly threads.
Please either ban him or kick him off for good!
Read the silly posts he writes - please.
Thank you.

LOL nothing compared to silly American threads about the silly government we here in the UK and Europe don’t care about your silly threads you little git! You decided to come on my thread and start BASHING IT! So if you can’t take the heat for BASHING me first off, STFU you silly little wanker!
Seriously.
There is a difference between government threads and a silly thread no one responds to except yourself about a cinema that 99 percent of us threaders dont even care about.
Go back to your doctor and bring these threads with you. You are the one that needs help.
I am not bashing at all, just stating a matter of fact opinion. Do you know the difference?
Thank you.

Tell you what stay far, far away from me OK! And I’ll stay far, far, far away from your threads deal!
If you call bashing outright openly discussing the fact that the thread has no purpose - then be it.
I guess you can't teach old dogs anything!
Moderators - Is there anybody out there?
I started this thread, so can you close it. I got my answer and now it is being used to harass me.
Thank you.
I will give you each one public warning and that's it. Take this sophmoric behavior off this forum now. It will not be tolerated.

I am not familiar with your Paradigm sub, however most subwoofer demonstrations like most surround sound demonstrations are overly exaggerated... what I am getting at is that most Hi-Fi shops and even most trade shows tend to jack up their settings so that you really hear what they are contributing. In a properly set up sub for a system that already has extension down to 40 or 50Hz, the sub will hardly be missed when it is turned off... turning it on and off should be quite subtle for most music... in some cases it should have no impact on the sound at all and with some music the effects of the added sub will be far less subtle.
What I am trying to say is that if you get the feeling that there is too much bass due to the addition of a sub, you are probably correct, turn down the power to the sub... that said, there isn't a vintage system out there that won't benefit from the subtle improvement that a properly set up, high quality sub can bring.

I would add that most sub-woofers in the shops use a 15" in too small of a box. Most use eq on the plate amp which makes the problem worse and in the case of sealed boxes looses most of the advantages of using a sealed design in the first place.
I think that may be why some people think 15 and 18 inch woofers can't be musical. Also the small woofers may sound "faster" because they are not putting as much sub 30hz energy into the room.
Its seems like most of the speaker designs noted for tight, fast bass never have much lower bass. (Altecs, Klipsch, bookshelf speakers, ect) If you had a Valencia or Model 19, waved a magic wand, and it was the exact same speaker but magically had flat response down to 25hz. I wonder if owners of the speaker wouldn't like it anymore because the upper bass didn't stand out anymore.
So, you guys are saying better to sell the subwoofer?
You are right about the tight bass and the comparison to a subwoofer. The subwoofer more often than not puts out too much bass and like you said, it is very flat.
Thank you for all of your guys' help.
I have this sub in my system right now, but will take it out and put in on eBay within a couple days.
