Impressions of the THT.

#1 Post by Subsonicspectre »

I finally got this bad boy rolling. I was having a giggle when the whole house started shaking @20hz although I will have to get a piece of carpet to put under it as the subwoofer started walking across the floor. Luckily where I wanted to put it is perfect with no nulls in my 2 listening positions.
I beyond impressed with how clean the bass is.

Amazing! BTW, how wide is your Little Monster? Are you using 12 or 15in?

If I remember correctly that is true. But getting it through a doorway might be difficult with a 35" width. Even at 24" wide it digs down to 22 hz nicely. Strong at 25hz, and up with smooth effortless detail.

The last 9 years have flown by for me, I built 4 THT's for my home theater in 2015, see https://billfitzmaurice.info/forum/view ... hp?t=23085
I never reported on their performance before, so belatedly here it is. One word "gobsmacking".

I ended up having an ischemic stroke in 2019 that slowed me down a bit, I made a full recovery with no permanent neurological damage and part of that recovery was hours spent listening to music in my home theater, the four corner placed THT's are just sublime, its not the tooth rattling volume capability that's impressive it's the whole room coverage with zero distortion of "realistic" clean bass reproduction that is unbeatable no matter how much you might spend on commercial subwoofers.

Thank you Bill.
