Pulled the trigger on a second sub. Thanks for the input!

Well I picked up a second SW 115 over the weekend. Thanks to those who gave feedback over the horn loaded subs and custom builds. My wheels will be turning for down the line as more time allows. I was able to get one of these discontinued models for a screaming deal brand new (no shipping!).

I came hope and my two year old said "Daddy got a new speaker?!" When we brought it in it shifted to "Daddy brought me a new box!!" Love the raw excitement of a two year old. :-) (see home theater IS good for the whole family!)

I have had only an hour to play with it so far. Right away I am so happy with the smoothed out and fuller bass. I walked around the room and the dead zones are full and I'm delighted by that. For kicks I played the airplane crash from Flight of the Phoenix at high but far from max volume. All I'll say is when I went upstairs my wife said she felt motion sick (she was sitting on the floor right above the theater room). :-) That's after all the sound isolation, detached double drywall via track etc.! (I realize bass is far more immune to sound transfer reduction than most frequencies). I know there are better subs out there and heritage is probably a step up from the 7ii's, but I am pleased as punch with this!

Thanks again for all the input. I've said this from time to time but I read far more than I post on here and I constantly learn from you all.

That is a cool looking fort you got your son.  :)

 

Oh, and to keep your wife from feeling the sub vibrations upstairs the next time, be sure she's de-coupled from the floor.

That is sound advice - I will make sure that happens next time! (Oh pun city!)

The crayons are out and the fort is in full swing!
