My JLf112 arrived today, here is a picture of it sitting in the box next to my fireplace in the 2 channel room. I have no subwoofer cable so I may have to run out to rat shack and get something to hold me over. I was planning on putting the sub. between my sonus faber Cremona's so the the bass is kind of centered between the 2 speakers. I have a dedicated outlet there to feed the sub. OR

option 2 :
I could take my velodyne sub. out and put the JLf112 in the home theater

You forgot option 3 - Order a second f112 and sell the velodyne.

Please don't put Rat-Shack cables on your JL Sub.

The Wireworld subwoofer cable is extremely reasonable and top-notch. A class sub deserves a class cable.

I have the JLf112 hooked up in my 2 channel system and my wife comes down and says so are you done now ? When will you have what you need, it sounds fine to me ? She also got a good laught when she saw the little white gloves that came with the sub. She thinks I am crazy as I wish I had bought the JLf113. Don't get me wrong the f112 is not bad but it is nowhere anywhere near as good as my velodyne sub

David, have you adjusted and optimized the F112 yet to come to that conclusion? Did you run the ARO, matched the phase to speakers, played around with the crossover slopes, gain, positioning and SPL meter to track your adjustments? It seems to me you may be rushing and jumping to conclusions once again... You just got the sub! Give it a chance. Sounds like I may need to make a house call.
