    My brother owns five of the original NHT Super Ones. He bought them new in the late 1990's I'm guessing. He also bought a Velodyne sub at the same time. He used the five NHT's for front, center, right and rears, as a 5.1 system. I've never heard them. He used them for less than a year, then boxed it all up. No issues with anything. They had a child, moved and never set anything back up. They still remain boxed to this day. Must run in the family. I have two brand new subs both NIB, a Polk 505 and an Epik Empire, both never opened or unboxed. I guess I'm jinxed with subs as the two I have apparently have high failure rates. But I may never know! ;)

    I stated I had a 12" NHT sub yesterday. I was wrong. :s It's a 10".

    I re-arranged my back room some more last night and moved that sub. I thought I'd remove the grill and look at the cone. :o I then measured it knowing it wasn't a 12" cone anymore. I still need to test it again.

    I also have a Polk 505 and Polk PSW111. They both worked last year or two years ago. Now...? :)

    I've had a fantastic older Velodyne powered sub. I sold it to an old co-worker for peanuts. B) I think it was a 12" with a slotted cabinet. That thing kicked butt!
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Guys,

    Thanks for the kind words earlier, they are much appreciated! 😊

    To answer some questions:
    • Our corner of the world is Los Angeles @CH46E, in a residential area north of downtown. It’s quite mountainous (foothills of the Angeles National Forest), so there are plenty of elevation changes to play with.
    • No @Clipdat! That is not my daughter! 😤
    • Not new construction @BlueFox, but a remodel of a fairly standard California “ranch” style dwelling, from the 1950’s. We are only the second owners in that time, and there have been zero remodels before we moved in. We’ve made some intermediate updates in the past, but this is the first complete remodel in almost seventy years.
    Carry on!
    Alea jacta est!

    One thing I like about living here -- you can kinda see the weather comin' when it is changeable. I mean, not like Nebraska or anything, but still, it can be pretty interesting sometimes.

    We've had metastable weather most of the day today, with occasional light rain & some thunder and lightning. Looked outside and noticed a low cloud (or high fog) zipping in a few minutes ago).

    I’m on vacation this week,and the wife and I refinished the hardwood floor in our bedroom. So,today I brought the compressor in to use my nail gun to put in new 1/4 round. I come out of the room and into the living room,and only one dog is visible.(we have 2 ankle biters). I start looking for Silas,and here’s where I find him. I guess he’s not a big fan of compressors.

    I like the urban camouflage tactic -- dog looks like skein of yarn. dog blends in with skein of yarn. :)
