Swarm clone

Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

I am intrigued by Audio Kinesis Swarm subwoofer solution.

The idea is to use multiple small diameter subs to smooth out room response and maintain the "quickness" of small driver. I was thinking of "cloning" the idea using The cheap Dayton Audio 8" subs from Parts Express.

For $400 bucks I can see buying four of them, spreading them around the room and keeping their individual gain quite low to minimize distortion due to cheapish drivers/cabinets. Thoughts?

Remember, it's all about the music.
