Jay481985 Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Can you really have 'fast' bass. Some speakers sound slow and ponderous. Others sound faster and more dynamic. The slower sounding speakers I've heard feature more bass extension. I believe that depends on the Q, its been a while since I last looked so don't beat me up if I am wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoMany Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 fast is a misused term and i completely hate it for that matter. They are talking about dampening and mostly depends on the box anyway. think about this, is a subwoofer was faster or slower, then it would not be playing the same frequency would it?

Paul Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I have been thinking about it all after noon[],I think it would be the same frequency.[]Well i like a fast driver [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Robinson Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I think the Danley is the right approach as well. It's a beast but the tapped horn and big box combination should be as nimble (I like that word here) as the Klipschorn. I'll know in a few months when I have mine installed. I'll post reviews for sure ... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoMany Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I have not tested the DTS-20 myself, but my intuition tells me otherwise. Its still single 12", horn loaded or not, there is only so much output you can get out of a 12, and pairing it with larger horn loaded 15" mains seems counterintuitive, at least to me.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> I was at work until 2am last night finishing all the tests on our new 18 PA subwoofers. We have never really got into the professional audio market so Im excited. Its a very interesting sub because its a combination of a PA type of speaker with a home theater type of performance. In short, it will do 2-2.5" throw which is unheard of in a PA speaker yet maintain a 95dB sensitivity and a has BL product of about 27 teslas. We had two of them loaded into a huge 4th order bass reflex and we did a frequency sweep. The -3dB point was at 20hz. I was shocked! This thing easily could hit a 140dB+ in a pretty good sized room and it could handle thousands of watts. When I was testing in a room 30x20 it felt like a car audio system because it was pressuring the room and you could feel the air being pushed in and out of your lunges. We just finished the first 12 drivers yesterday and they will be used in the next Coldplay concertI'm getting tickets! The sub is not for hometheater but its the only thing I could recommend with khorns.. khorns are that freaking loud! Unforuntatly, it only comes in industrial grade texture finish not quite a spitting imagine of an veneered khorn, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
