QUOTE(jchong @ Oct 23 2009, 10:36 AM) if i do have a spare unit of EQ1, I'll bring the unit to you when I am in Ipoh.I knew that you are after quality bass. Most ppl will notice that the 'oomph' is gone, no more in your face bass after running EQ1. Always an option to run it hotter than at 75dB. Not many will be going for neutral since majority running their subs hot. There is this guy who told me that he runs his at +5dB |

Because looking you are at powderful subwoofer that amplifier need big big watt. Only best the sub fits requirement your. Forgetting not shaking bass when listering. So, your class is him above

Yes. Just imagine what it could unleash when it is being run 'hot' even if it is SVS 12-NSD.
Will arrange the EQ1 for you test. Maybe when we meet up at Ipoh. |

QUOTE(logit85 @ Oct 28 2009, 01:08 AM) i have ask him about shipping Elemental Designs Subwoofer Not bad for 2 of the best sub in around for the price of it. he said the shipping quote. Just received. Shipping for the two Elemental Designs A7-900's to your door in Malaysia will be $1350 USD. That would make your total for the 2 Elemental Designs A7-900 $5850.00 USD total price to you. I have been in the warehouse today helping the shipping department prepare one of the large shipments, and have not be available for chat. I do apologize, as I would have enjoyed sharing this through chat with you. Wow very expensive shipping sad i like it 2 Elemental Designs A7-900's because i like to louder So, it is about RM25,350 for 2 behemoth quality subwoofers. IMHO, not really expensive considering its performance over price ratio. Each would be almost equivalent of the price of an award winning 'ultra powerful' sealed sub that is available locally. Then again, I think it would be safe to say that it is a total massacre when A7-900 goes head to head with it |

Something for bass freaks
TF2 : ROTF IMAX opening sequence that let's you know you're in an IMAX theater 108db Opening sequence up to the title transformation. 110db peak First fight China Big Decepticon with giant wheel transforms and punches the ground. Highest peak of the movie. 114db Optimus parachutes down from the plane. 106db Fights with the monster Decepticon. 109db Sam and Megan on phone. I took this as a reference to what normal speaking levels were at. 70db-75db Bumblebee fighting the household appliances and destroying half the house. 104db Optimus voice during military talk. 80db-96db All spark retrieval. Some of the shots from the jaguarbot(don't know what it's called) on the government building holding a piece of the allspark. 104db Megatron rescue Diving 105db Spark in chest 109db Surfacing destroying the aircraft carrier 107db Landing on the moon of Saturn the Fallen is on 107db Fembot blows up door in the bedroom and when she enters the library. 106db Starscream's and Megatron's footsteps in warehouse when they captured Sam and his friends. 105db Battle to save Sam in warehouse where Optimus jumps over everyone while shooting. It felt like there will be some very deep bass. 105db-111db Forest First part of fight 103db-109db Second part or fight 107db Optimus gets killed and as he's falling there is some really deep bass. 106db-113db Decepticons crash landing from space onto the aircraft carrier. 104db-107db Ancient Blackbird thransformer Transformation. 104db-106db Falls down 104db-108db Blackbird warp travel Taking off from the field with the planes. 108db Crash landing in Egypt or Jordan(can't remember which one). 108db-110db Starcream Shoots at bumblebee while they're driving to Optimus. 104db EMP burst to knock out communication links. 105db Devastator Transformation 103db-110db Sucktion and battle battle with twins. 103db-106db Sam and Mikaela in the Arabic house. The footstep of the Decepticons and the house being blown up. 109db Bumblebee fights red Decepticon usind the wheel belt as a whip. 103db-105db The Jordan army helicopter crash. 105db-107db Sam running from the blasts. Sounds like a heart beating. 104db Scorpion blasts out of ground to attack Blackbird Autobot. 104db-106 Devastator killed by the secret super gun on battleship. 102db-104db Fighter jet drops around 10 bombs on the Decepticons as the Autobots run for it. Huge explosion! 104db-110db Fallen teleports in and takes matrix from Optimus's chest. 106db-107db Fallen on the pyramid using his anti-gravity power to raise all the army vehicles into the air, then drops them. Sounds like a really good mix of bass frequencies! 105db-110db Optimus vs Fallen 106db peaks This is really a good torture for subwoofer. No wonder ronaldjoe mentioned that a lot of subwoofers bottoms out. This post has been edited by htkaki: Nov 4 2009, 05:56 PM |

Sell it off and get the IMAX ver. Anyway, read postings in another forum that IMAX's audio is 4dB 'quieter' than the norm ver. Most of them saying AQ is the same. While only a few noted that the dialogue being a dB higher.

It's almost a different thing. The norm Audyysey (except Pro) cannot effectively do correction for LFE. Hence, you need another application to do so. The sub EQ comes into picture. However, most of the subs' EQ have limitation; only taming peak to a certain degree or it is a single band EQ.
So, if you do need to have a very balance (flat) curve, you need more capable device to do that. This post has been edited by htkaki: Nov 10 2009, 10:38 PM |

QUOTE(ronaldjoe @ Nov 15 2009, 10:44 PM) Went on quite well. Near flat graph really need to get use too as robinlim did not particularly like it. However, bryanlee and his friend like it. They said that the 13-Ultra's bass is tight and powerful. Lazy to elaborate here. When you are free to come over, pls let me know. |
