$498 each I'll shake the chair for you for a six pack

Lol. Yes they’re expensive. But, they’re a lot cheaper than trying to build enough subs to get sub 15hz frequencies in a concrete room. And, if you’ve never experienced Crowsons....well they’re impressive.

Not sure why you felt it necessary to add a link. For other people maybe?? Either way I was well aware of the cost when I mentioned them. And, they’re arriving today.

Wow. Been a minute. We’ve moved again and now my “theater” is the 5th bedroom. So, 4 of these in a bedroom with 1299s is impressive. My room response is also impressive. I was a little over 130dbs the other night. No clipping the amps. But, as much as a I love these subs. I really can’t keep them in this room. They just take up too much space. I’ve listed them on AVS. Going to build some 21” monsters to replace them. But, I’ll have more flexibility in the cab design.

Tried to post a pic but it’s giving me a HTTP error.

How about building some THTLPs instead, and stand them up....less floor space.

Yeah. I did forget about that option. But, this is an opportunity to experiment with a few 21” drivers. And, I’ve wanted to build some LLTs with 21s for awhile.

But….THTLPs would only cost me the cost of BB. Something to think about!

Thanks Tom

21s are what you use when you don't know how to build horns. Simplexx 21, loaded with the Eminence NSW 6021-6. It's compared with the 2x12 T60:



The T60 has higher sensitivity and costs a lot less to build, the S21 is a smaller cabinet. If you have room for the T60 it's the better choice, if you don't there's the S21.

4, in one bedroom? You probably weren't giving them more than a dozen or two volts each. Try removing two or three and seeing if that isn't still enough bass for you.

In a 12x14 room I have a hard time thinking you need 4 of these in there.

The THT's are absolutely visceral ..I have 6 of them in my main Theater room powered by 3,000 watts rms...My guests are overwhelmed..sometimes visible shaken.
