True enough. I'm glad you're still here, Craig. I've got something here I can let you have that will fix up your bass issues. If you want, I can drop them off.As a note here, you're on your way to becoming a packrat.
what do ya got?True enough. I'm glad you're still here, Craig. I've got something here I can let you have that will fix up your bass issues. If you want, I can drop them off.
why would you say that?As a note here, you're on your way to becoming a packrat.
I say that because you're collecting a large sum of equipment that would otherwise be in someone's garage collecting dust, attic collecting more dust, or on the curb/in dumpster.why would you say that?
I have my old pair of Sansui 4-way speakers with 15" woofers. I think the mids are blown but the horn tweeters and super tweeters are fine.what do ya got?
WOW, those look amazing, last night when i upgraded to 2.1, i finally truly surpassed my parents system, those speakers would be the perfect way to rub it in their faceI have my old pair of Sansui 4-way speakers with 15" woofers. I think the mids are blown but the horn tweeters and super tweeters are fine.
I have used them just for bass by running them through an amp that is fed only below 80hz signal from the subwoofer output. It worked out well for me. Or you could replace the blown drivers and have a fine set of speakers.
Hold on, I have a pic.

I haven't used them for a long time. I'm happy if somebody could put them to good use. PM to let me know where to drop them off.how much u want 4 them?
Just because you can feel it, doesn't mean it's under 20hz. Not to be rude, but I seriously doubt your speakers can go that low. I don't even think my Dayton Titanic MKIII with a 15" driver and a 1,000 watt amp can hit 15 hz.seth, my panasonic can hit 15Hz at a very reasonable volume, so i would call them a subwoofer, and the 4" sub i got last night, well that one might not go much lower than 20Hz. but all of my 4" speakers that i call 'subwoofers' can hit frequencies below 20Hz, i have one that i use so it vibrates my like a bass shaker, that one can hit 10Hz
You're looking at this the wrong way. The first subwoofer I bought that was capable into subsonic frequencies was a Paradigm PS-1000 (a $600 self amplified sub with crossover I paid $100 for). However, subsonic isn't absolutely necessary. Most folks get plenty of enjoyment from budget subwoofers that won't necessarily rock your world and your neighbor's too, but will certainly get the job done. I honestly don't think you need a powered subwoofer at this point, you need to start with a real receiver or integrated amplifier and a pair of speakers. One member on here is selling a nice little 8" powered subwoofer that gets down to 25 Hz in certain rooms assuming it's positioned correctly, which is excellent for it's size and price of only $50 (not including his shipping though I'm afraid).alright then, how much would a subwoofer that can hit subsonic frequencies cost?
lol.......dont diss the strudel speakers, they're only tweeters
Can you ellaborate on your receiver? What is it exactly? I'm willing to wager what ever receiver it is they have, it's probably superior to any power source you currently have.i could use my parents old pioneer one, but honestly, my whole setup is better than my parents, the only place where their receiver is better, is theirs has an equalizer built in.
You should look into at the very least, maybe they'll let you have it if you do some chores or work for them. Offer to clean out their gutters before winter sets in or something, rake their yard, etc...my friends step-dad just got a new receiver in their garage to replace an old 5.1 and i might be able to buy their old one, i dont know how much they want for it however
That's because you've been using non-full range speakers. Those Sansui speakers would blow what you've got out of the water, especially after the midrange gets replaced. Please find out the model of the Pioneer receiver as well as the make and model of the receiver that your friend's step-father has.but now that im on 2.1 i dont want to have to go back to plain old 2 channel audio.
