Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

Better and better...

Each minor adjustment makes a significant improvement.

Over the weekend I removed the cheap variable resistor I had wired into the xo's woofer output to test-shelve it, and wired in a 3ohm fixed, moving the variable to the tweeter - and shelved that to about 1.5 ohm. Wow, the bass has snapped right in. So much richer and still very controlled.

But, that variable must be a real POS (Jaycar special) as the horn is quite a bit more veiled - a more balanced output, but not as transparent. It will be interesting to see whether or not that returns to previous when I replace it with a good fixed one.
