Hsu MBM-12 Thread

[Tomorrow]

Gene, with that many subwoofers, it may not be needed, especially with four subwoofers! The main benefits in using the MBM-12 (or multiples of them) and letting the true subwoofers handle 50Hz and below with that system would be for even lower IM distortion and even wider dynamic range, but then again we're talking about something way overkill here

Peter,

This is undoubtedly a dumb question...but that's my job, lol...

Does the inability to have MBM-12 near-field placement negate the advantage of adding this unit to a 2 VTF-3 setup? (VTF-3's are currently hidden in opposite corners, where the WAF is at acceptable level). My room is roughly 4.5K cu.ft.

Do you need me to have "the talk" with her?

Yeah, we need an 'intervention'. LOL!!

Tomorrow, if there is no way that you can use it nearfield, then the impact may not be quite as great, but it could still improve the sound quality of the system by providing wider dynamic range and lower intermodulation distortion. That said, I woudn't sweat it too much, stick with your two VTF-3's, they should be very capable in filling that room with great sound!
