I've seen ported subwoofers marketed with plugs. I think SVS might be one brand that does that.

Well, with my Prodigy speakers, if Audyssey was turned off, the woofers would overpower the panels and the overall sound was muffled and lacked treble. With Audyssey turned on, it would lower the volume of the woofers so that the panels were no longer overpowered. Since I had a nice BF 210 sub...

The only problem is that if they are worn out, your amp is going to be forced to work extra hard to drive them. I had bought a brand new Aragon amp and was unknowingly pushing it very hard all of the time. Having it set to +14 db all of the time. Whatever amp youre using, its having to work...

So you found the serial numbers for both the panels and the speaker cabinet, because they have their own. I had to look real close to see the serial number on my panels. Its kinda small. If the panels are original and 24 years old, they have most likely lost quite a bit of performance. When I...

When were the speakers produced, and are those the original panels? Usually panels are worn out withing 20 years. I replaced my Prodigy panels when they were about 20 years old and the improvement is incredible. The old panels dont put out near the volume and lose a lof of high frequency...

Also, that Sunfire doubles it's power going fron 8 to 4 ohm. That's what you need with electrostats.

It's a 8008. 200 wpc at 8 ohm and 400 woc at 4 ohm. If that 2 channel Sunfire is in your price range I'd just get that since it's in your price range. There are quite a few members on here using their amps and they love them. I owned a Carver subwoofer that was really good. I'm pretty sure...

Wow, great explanation. Thanks for taking the time. I used to teach high school Chemistry, Gen. Science, and Biology. I think you would have made a good teacher!

I use a single two channel amp to drive my Prodigy speakers and it sounds great. I'd buy the 1st choice, the 2 channel Sunfire. I use an Aragon 2 channel amp that I bought new.

Hum. Will having a coating that's only 1/3 as conductive as the original affect things in a negative way? Your hypothesis about why it's not coated by the spars makes a lot of sense. I'd be interested in seeing what happens if you coat the whole thing. Your diagram shows the spar being thicker...

Yes, it's black on the latest Edge browser for me too. Looks great.

I've been waiting for these speakers ever since i first read your report on them here. Whats the holdup!?

That's what I figured too. Just wondering if a few might actually exist. It would be nicer than IMAX, and even those are rare these days.

Just thinking, do any theaters use waveforming? Im guessing no because the subwoofers arent usually behind the listeners.

Youd make an excellent salesman for them! You have my interest. If I ever build a new home with a dedicated theater, ill be looking at doing this.

Ok, I was just curious. Ours is pretty strict.

Does the helmet meet the specs required at your track? I know mid ohio has rules, and they keep upgrading requirements. I'm guessing every track goes by a certain rating. There's a rating for each helmet. I'm hoping mine is still good. You might run into trouble with that?

How does the bass sound different than a traditional setup with front and rear subs but no wave forming electronics? How does the sound to your ear differ? Curious to know how much of a difference it makes.

Id like a t-shirt.

Only way I'd spend considerably more is if I planned on upgrading to higher grade speakers later on, because then youd have to upgrade the relatively new amp. I'd rather just buy one amp and not have to sell one and buy another. You lose a lot of $ when you sell.
