General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Don't forget the bass

Yes, I'm sure you have great speakers. But don't forget the wonders of world class bass. Before the painful dot-com boom I had an amazing system with Dunlavy Millenniums. These wonders were +/-1dB from 20Hz to 20KHz. That's right they effortlessly pumped out 20Hz. Plus they were not ported so the bass was very clean. You could clearly hear the bass strings being strummed and hear it as the stings' frequency varied as their vibration decayed. Drum strikes would move the couch. Even at modest volume of normal music, your pantlegs would move with the bass as you walked by. Absolutely nothing like it. Every single favorite of mine had to be listened to again. Of course these Millennium's had world class waterfall and pulse responses so the imaging was without peer. To this day it saddens me that I had to sell the system off due to the realities of the day.

We'll have to agree to disagree about global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along
