Hi Guys I'm looking for the best solution for a subwoofer to use with my 105 dB sensitive Beauhorn Virtuoso speakers! As you can see directly below, the Beauhorn's employ the use of both front-loaded & back-loaded horns. Without a doubt they're the best sounding pair of single-fullrange loaded speakers I've used to date!IMHO in my audio room at present, I feel they need some support from 80 Hz and below. But my problem is I don't know what type of subs I should use!?!? Is Tom Danely's tapped horn the way to go? Should I build Bill Fitzmaurice's designs? Or is Ed Schilling's bucket subs the way to go? I would deeply appreciate any help or advice anyone here is willing to share with me concerning this matter...
