Dual Larger Subs

zybar · « **on:** 16 May 2004, 09:05 pm »

Well, I wanted to listen (watch) a movie before I do the Elmers glue tweak. I put in matrix Revolutions and man did the bass slam!!

The dual Largers are being powered by an Adcom GFA 555 Mk II. I have a just back from the factory QSC PLX 3402 (it blew a rail and something else within 5 minutes of powering it up) in the box and a Crown K2 that will arrive on Wed.

Even without the tweak or amp upgrade I am simply amazed at the output the dual Largers can produce. I literally felt my chair and heard my walls shake (will need to figure out a way to address that). All of this with no distortion or single not bass.

I can only imagine what they wil be like with the Elmers and much better amp.

My hat is off to you Brian.

Stay tuned for a report back after the changes.

They are amazing. Finding Nemo has some good bass in it, believe it or not:) It felt like someone climbed up behind me and slugged me in the gut! Literally! Great stuff. Keep us updated on that glue improvement...

Supposedly, in Finding Nemo, when the lady fish (what's her name?) knocks on the wall, it's incredibly deep. Also, The Lord of the Rings is good, too. Toy Story II, the beginning is good.

Are you running the subs as stereo subs? What kind of processor are you using?

Bob,

I use an Outlaw 950 pre/pro (you can see the rest of my HT gear in the link below).

Right now I am only using the subs in HT and not 2 channel (via crossover in the Outlaw). Once I get an external crossover I will start using them in the 2 channel setup as well.

George,

You're magnanimous -- I'd have said, "look at my profile, dummy!" I was going to buy the Outlaw 5-channel amp to do the HT duties, but I ended up buying a Lexicon (made by Bryston). One day, I'm going to have to replace my Proceed AVP, and I might go with the Outlaw and a dedicated stereo preamp (maybe even tube).

George,

You might wanna edit your sig to actually point to your HT link instead of someone else's.

Thanks for letting me know.

Kind of weird seeing as how I haven't changes my signature in a very long time...

Guess no one was looking at your HT setup...
