    Pics Of The Twin Towers

    Hello people,

    Andrew came by a for a visit over the weekend and was nice enough to bring along a digital camera. He took some pics of the subs, and the rest of my setup. Here is a little sneek preview of some of the pics. Will have my own dedicated site soon where all of the pics will be posted.

    For the audiophiles the answer would be OMG When playing Titan AE at -5 ref I could feel the hair on my head moving.
    Since we had two identical subs to play with we did a little test with both subs playing vs a single. We had the SPL meter at the couch and the single sub was the corner loaded one as seen in the image above.

        So guys, would these rate as the ultimate for 2 15" drivers?

        Totally cool!

        I like how unpretentious they are... They don't hide from their main intent, to kick the crap outta a person at all costs, what ever it takes.

          Andrew, are those near field numbers for the sub/port in the 1st set of numbers? And are they the corrected numbers or raw numbers?

          What are the numbers measuring from 1 meter away?

            Bing,

            Haven't seen anything yet that will compete with these 2, but have been hearing about a lot of IB setups being done with the Tempest drivers. I can attest to some "ass kicking" as these bad boys have been doing a lot of that lately.

            P|@,

            I'll try to answer this one for you. I am pretty sure Andrew will add in his 2 cents anyways. The first set of numbers are the near feild numbers and are the corrected values. We didn't do a measurement at 1 meter unfortunately as are ears were starting to ring.

              Pat all values are corrected and the first set are nearfield. We left the bottom base plate on for the driver measurements and the port numbers were taken with the SPL meter placed just into the port. There's only a couple of feet above the subs to the roof. The difference between the single and dual subs values were taken from his couch which is approx 12 feet away.

                If possible, do the 1 meter measurement because that's more standard and yields a better idea of the performance of the subs in comparison to other sub's frequency response (and how low it goes). I'd be interested in seeing those numbers.

                  Pat we'll try that the next time I'm over. It was hard enough doing what we did given the other people in the house
