I’m in need of augmenting the bass in my system. I’m the old school type and would rather NOT go the sub route.
My system and environment: • Pre: Conrad Johnson Premier 16LS • Pwr: Conrad Johnson Premier 12 Mono Blocks • Pwr Condtnr: Shunyata Hydra • Speakers: Tannoy Kensingtons • Cabeling: Stealth PGS IC’s, Vandenhull Bi-wire Speaker wiring • Sources: Conrad Johnson DV-2B CD Player, SOTA Star w/SME arm w/Grado cart, Magnum Dynalab Tube Tun • Music: Classic Rock, Easy listening, Female Jazz singers, Classical • Room: Big (25 X 30) w/cathedral ceiling. Harwood floors/ceiling and big glass windows. Rugs and furniture
Came across the Emerald Physics Bass Manager claims to add 1/2 octave of bass to any speaker. IYO, could that be a solution? Are there similar helpers like this out there? Not much in the budget (about $500) for a near-term purchase. Could double that for a longer-term.
Again, not wanting to go the sub route unless I have too. Can’t do room treatments or alter room configuration (it’s our living room) either.
Any thoughts/suggestions will be greatly appreciated – thank you!
Appears the obvious sure-fire solution would be a sub. Get over my resistance I say to myself!
Question: I'm currently running bi-wire to the Kensingtons. How would this be configured with a sub? Or should that be two subs?? Can the concept of bi wiring still exist with a sub???
