Finally found a pair of Monitors I could live with.

Some say it is a little large for my room - but what do they know.

Full range design, no tweeter.

3am ROCKS

    All joking aside -

    I wonder how this will sound...

    (FWIW - There is a towel under the sub)

    Probably doesn't help the sound with it laying on its side with the driver close to the ground.

    The vertical presentation is how my sub was designed. I really enjoy that fact. It made room placement a little easier.

    Well for music it sounds a lil cleaner....

    I want to try the drivers facing upwards - PR firing into the back wall... that would be nifty...

    The title to this thread scared the bejessusosophat out of me. I thought to myself..."surely not."
    btw... When are you gettin' your damn monos?
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Klaus said beginning/mid July last I called him instead of end of June...

    Im patient -- Khartago is getting along, not the best - but along none the less...

    And FWIW -- this Larger is phenominal firing upwards..

    The Khartago can get them to my levels...

    But it loses its cool right at my levels. It gets brighter and harsher --- eeeek

    And how loud is that approximately? The Khartago is a beast of an amp.

    BTW, did you get my PM?
