Hey Guys,

     I attended a "Home Studio" seminar put on by Berklee College of music faculty a few 
years ago.   One thing they recommended for an economical subwoofer is to use a good 
home-theater model.   I have a sub now, but my i/o amp isn't enough umph to drive the 
thing.

     Any technical and economical advice from the Logic gallery here?

      I can't find any photos on the internet but It does say:   Nominal impedance, 8 ohm

     Thanks!

       Pete

i tried one of those and couldn't get it to work right in my studio.

i bought a consumer JBL, self powered for under $200 and it's great. you can get them 
even cheaper, like at $100 or less.

I bought an M-audio powered subwoofer from Musicians Friend through Amazon 
and I think that was $199 new. It works with their B5a powered speakers to make 
a nice little system. If I were to do it again, I don't think I would get the 
subwoofer though. I have to turn it down quite a bit so it doesn't overwhelm 
the rest.

Hi all,

I bought a Tannoy TS10 to go with the Dynaudio BM6a's and think it is  
great.
Crossover is good- bass is deep and defined without overpowering the  
Dynaudios.
Price is right also- at $550.

For placement- I found the best way was to put the sub on a stand in  
the mix position and then crawl around on  the floor listening to  
where it sounded the best.
It ended up being against the wall between the monitors - my mix  
position is at 38% the length of the room.

I just picked up the JBL4328s and the JBL 4312 subwoofer.  This system
ROX.

 

Sold my Mackie HR824s and am not looking back at all.
