Sub s for Dali Megaline system


I am interested in a subwoofer system (1 or 2) for my two channel room. It consists of the Dali Megaline III speakers driven by McIntosh electronics--C1000C 3 piece preamp and 2 sets of MC501 monoblocks. My listening tastes vary widely and includes classic/orchestral, classic rock/pop/r&b, and specific female vocalists. I am strongly considering a pair of Jl Audio Fathom 212's (the Gothams seem way too big). I'd appreciate any input. Ray.

Acoustat6, The Torus is -3db@20hz. It's flat at 25hz. I've had the Torus, pairs of JL audio's, Rel's and Martin Logans all in my setup. I didn't buy the Torus because I couldn't justify the cost of a pair of them in my almost full range system. They go plenty low if you listen to music which doesn't contain a lot of organ or you are doubling for HT. Qualitatively they were the best and I wouldn't hesitate to buy them if it were for 2 channel only and I had a lot of money that my wife didn't have better use for. - Jim

I have not seen that spec anywhere. It is not on their website that I have seen. Correct me if I am wrong. And for $6000 it cant reach 20 hz....?

Actually if you want to "really" take it to the max,there is the Eminent Techology TRW-17!!

An experienced audio friend had this demoed for him,and was flabbergasted!!

This "is" truly a serious design,but requires a commitment from the hobbyist....as in re-doing some vent work in the room/house.

It is reviewed on the "IAR" web-site,where it is proclaimed "the only subwoofer".

Looks serious,but I have not heard it and never will.I've got alot of experience with REL's better offerings and do think they work well.

The room size,and what the hobbyist realistically expects(aside from the financial considerations)will dictate the ultimate success.

Good luck....you already have a great speaker-:)

I asked that a few days ago and apparently Aldavis is having a hard time finding this also! So he keeps guessing.
