    JBL PSW1000 vs JAMO SUB 250. Anyone have input?

    Hi, I have to choose between two subwoofers being offered to me for free. One of them is a Jamo Sub 250, the other is a JBL PSW1000 that has had the woofer replaced with a Martin Logan woofer from a dynamo sub of the same size. Would anybody be able to give a recommendation of one or the other?

    Velodyne ULD subwoofer Servo Cable Question

    I am currently using a vintage Velodyne ULD-15 subwoofer from 1986 in my home theater setup. More or less happy with it, although I suspect the 5-pin servo cable has a short in it somewhere. The cable works well, but If it's moved, it sometimes causes the driver to pop, or worse - so I don't...

    Dayton ultimax Driver Swap for Velodyne hgs18 advice

    Hello fellow AKer's! I have a Velodyne Hgs 18 that has some unique behavior. It seems to bottom out at specific low frequencies, even at low volume. But can handle much lower notes even at much higher volume. Me and AudioFreak71 seem to think it may possibly be the servo. Regardless, there's an...

    Bose 901 subwoofer?

    Hi all! You'll have to excuse me because I'm fairly new to this whole world, but I'm working on building a decent system. I recently found what I think is a Bose 901 subwoofer, but I can't find any resources on it. Did Bose in fact make a 901 sub?

    Run a subwoofer with a C28?

    Could I use the main center output of my C28 to drive a subwoofer? I'm guessing I'd need to be able to adjust the subwoofer since the C28 won't let me control the output of that particular channel, right?
