Almost Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Adding A Subwoofer
 
Found this article while looking up best practices for adding subs. I have two JL Audio F212v2's coming from Ivan and that's a hell of a lot of bass to add, so I wanted to read up on tips.

It's an interesting article. It comes of as brash and a bit arrogant, but there's some interesting info in there I thought we could all benefit from.

Barry Ober has forgotten more about subwoofers than I will ever know. I think it is a very useful article.

Good article, and for me, reinforces why I don't use a subwoofer(s) in my 2-channel music system.

Quite a bit of the info is wrong according to other "experts" and IME.

Care to be more specific so we can all benefit? :scratch2:

Here is what I know: I like my system a lot without the sub. I like it better with the sub. I just ordered a second sub so I will have stereo subs. That article made my head hurt, so I listened to music with my horribly inaccurate and poorly installed sub, with no doubt shitty phase tesponse and timing anomolies, and guess what? It sounded great and I feel all better now. Cant wait to pick up my second sub at Magnolia tomorrow.

Gedlee and Audiokinesis are similar, there are others with different takes.

Venere's post above. :thumbsup:

Anyone here an authority on running the JL Audio CR-1 Crossover with dual subs (Fathom 212v2 for example)? I'd have to save up some big cash, but it sounds pretty compelling.
