Still blown away- there is an old Telarc CD called Time Warp and its a great checkout disc, that will tax most any system. hah... the system laughed and I just about cried... all the clarity and volume from the heresy and the visceral kick from that sub is just what I wanted. magnificent ! Thanks again Bill.

This one? https://open.spotify.com/album/7LoG7jbA ... QYa-eXObnQ

As cool as that is for a real treat watch the opening scene from 'Lara Croft, Tomb Raider'. It was one of the first flics I watched after making the first TableTuba.

That's it- the first two tracks will let you know how your system holds up.

Love the idea going to try that now.

Follow up- been about 6 months, and right now I'm listneing to Baloney again off Sailing to Philadelphia, theres a bass line in there thats subtle, but if it's right you just feel it in your veins.

Also, Why so Serious off the dark knight soundtrack whoa right around 3:25 in, it is visceral.

Man- so glad I made this sub.

ok so now show us some pics

Super plain jane-... she's no showroom special, I dont even want to set myself up for the shame!

No matter, you can't hear how it looks.

Table Tuba was designed with home theatre / film in mind. Lara Croft, submarine drama with torpedo's and depth charges, earth quakes, explosions. The vast majority of recorded music does not go that low. Yet it can still make a horn loaded sub shine. My modest T18 and AutoTuba took me by surprise. There was this track on a sampler CD that I rarely played at all and this track never stood out. It still has an understated easy go atmosphere. Yet on a horn loaded sub it suddenly came to life. Not in a spectacular way. The lows just make me smile. A stupid smile if you will. You may want to give it a go: Café de Flore by Dr Rockit.

The version I have on CD is short at 3m36s. Spotify has several versions, all longer, some quite different. All have the "stupid grin" lows.
