| Use a car woofer for home audio cabinet.. any downside? Hi Steve, The 2 on ebay are a bit high.... Yes, Madisound had this knocked off for them. I believe Foster made it. Neither of these is the Madisound part. I don't recognize the part with the fins on the magnet, but the other looks to be the ... | |
| What do you know about the JENSZEN Z-600 speakers and cross-overs I don't have a ton of experience with these, Its been many years These speakers require some real current to come alive.

| Does anyone know what happened to SUMO Electronics? JD, one of my best friends still uses an Electra. He has made a ton of cap improvements on this pre and it responded incredibly to the changes. This pre already uses 1% metal film resistors, but it is full of sub par caps. so if you figure out... | |
| Use a car woofer for home audio cabinet.. any downside? I went ahead and ran curves on the 2 woofers suggested.... The AD12-300 woofer Erik posted is an attractive choice indeed. As a drop in without any changes, It'll be fairly smooth and be 3db down @ 31hz. The NHT1259 Woofer posted as a drop in (... | |

| Does anyone know what happened to SUMO Electronics? Yep, Jim Made Charlie the Tuner under Gas and Sumo Labels both. The Sumo was a better sounding piece, the best sounding tuner that I have heard, but its reception was mediocre at best. | |
| Use a car woofer for home audio cabinet.. any downside? @stevethe4th The short answer to your question is "yes" it is certainly possible to use a car woofer in a home system. The problem that you run into is that the automotive environment requires a much different woofer than a living room and are de... | |
| Speakers least affected by room acoustics The advice that most mirrors my experience comes from audiotroy. If someone come to me asking me to build a speaker for them and they had a lot of boundry room issues. I would have recommended one of two. One was nailed above. An MTM with a r... | |
| Does anyone know what happened to SUMO Electronics? @marqmike Yep, Rich Did Polaris and Jason did Polaris II and III. I've listened to the Polaris many times, I sold that piece, It had a slight coloration that was pleasant. I've not sat in front of the Jason's Polaris models. I've been told tha... | |

Jason Stoddard tweaked the Athena and that was the Athena II. James did the Andromeda... bipolar output... |
