Errr....... not first wife in charge of bass settings, second wife in charge of treble settings, third wife in charge of subwoofer level, fourth wife in charge of volume, fifth wife in charge of on / off switch, sixth wife in charge of changing cd. KingCobra pulak in charge of auditioning the speakers with a Starbucks on his right hand. thumbup.gif

Wow, I'm learning something new from you today, lots of respect to you Bro. notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif FYI, I'm not married yet but thanks for sharing your experiences with me. Appreciate it very much.

So, what type of music should be used for that purpose? Errr ....... is it only effective when the music is played through AL 4121? Other AL models can, ar? No lah, just wanna double confirm with you. icon_question.gif

So, how's the progress of modding your speakers Bro? Do keep us updated on your new DIY project yeah. Thanks! notworthy.gif

You can consider buying Yamaha subwoofer lor, they have those units available for sale from a few hundred ringgit to two thousand plus. I'm using SW-315, bought it around RM990 last time, maybe cheaper now, 10 inch woofer and 270 RMS, very good bass and it goes very loud especially when watching movies with my Yamaha amp. Not sure that's what you want. Can get sakit jantung if you put the bass level at full blast. laugh.gif

You're not supposed to turn up subwoofer level where you can hear it loudly or distinctively seperate altogether. Its supposed to add to the side effects without drowning the rest of the higher frequencies.
Anway, Ah Bengs don't subscribe to appropriate levels as long as it suits their whim.

You cannot say people like that lah my friend, people who likes more bass not necessarily Ah Bengs what. Besides, a good subwoofer always have room for you to push the bass further, louder and deeper if needed, they have an allowance for more demanding listeners (more refine word).

Well, there's nothing wrong if you fancy more bass because I myself do like more bass when watching my dvds at home. The bass gives the movies and music the much needed oompphh so biasalah unless you're listening to classical or jazz, you might want a neutral sounding system so that it sounds natural and soothing to your ears but if you're listening to Akon, Outcast, 50 Cents, etc ...... a big subwoofer is a must. thumbup.gif

Yamaha subwoofer is a common thing actually, most Hi-Fi shops have it, you can try going to Sungei Wang, Plaza Low Yat, Midvalley, etc. Electrical shops do sell Yamaha subwoofer and they have various range to suit your budget but most important you listen first lah, see whether you like it or not. My subwoofer is close to a thousand last time and that's not considered mahal, my friend bought a REL subwoofer, it costs RM6000 plus but he orang kaya so different story lah, I can't afford that unless pay installment for 3 years lah. Hahaha. doh.gif Well, you try and listen lor, if not Yamaha, you can consider other brands like Infinity, JBL, KEF, etc.

there's one altec lansing stand alone subwoofer for sale, i think the model is XA 301 or somethings like that. looks like a bomb, u can add it to ur ACS45.1 easily.
but for yamaha woofer, u might be a bit troublesome to set it up. as u must has an crossover before sending the low frequency signal to woofer.... not sure the woofer alone has built in crossover or not.there's a lot of things u have to take in count when u buy those theather woofer. in connecting it i mean.
