In Reply to: Re: Buying Titan II Sub? Help! posted by JerryS on January 03, 2002 at 09:47:02:
I've dealt with ACI countless times over the years. One of the finest organizations I've ever spent money with. I'd bet my next paycheck that they charge the price in effect when the order is placed, not when it is shipped. The Titan II LE is WELL worth the wait!

JD,
I would be amazed if they did other than charge the price in effect when the order was placed. I asked the question so "MintFranklin" would ask the proper questions of ACI and relieve his anxiety over his purchase.I dealt with ACI many years ago and found them to be completely reliable, too.
got my 168S the other day! Sounds warm and rich in a small ported .5 cabinet. Done nuthin to the driver yet (tweeeeeeks!). After i build the BK16 (any other suggestions?) i will be looking for a sub. REL, Titan, Sonicraft (Madisound kit), Velodyne, other? I am enjoying thinking about the amazing decisions i need to make in the coming weeks. Do you like your sub choice with your Fostex???Thanks,

Yo, Godzilla,
You took the plunge, eh? Great! I was just talking with another Fostex builder about the 164 vs. the 168S, and said I chose the 164 primarily because the published response curve was flatter on the 164. But now that you are using the Sigma driver, I am very interested to hear if you notice anything amiss with its frequency response. If not, I may replace the 164 since the 168 is more efficient (and is better looking, too).I already had a pair of REL Strata IIIs when I built the Fostex, and am currently waiting for Dr. Hsu to send me a 1220HO for review. Other than that, I'm pretty much a virgin (is that even possible? ;-) ) when it comes to the other subs you mention. I did have a Velodyne F-1200R a few years ago, but the REL stomps it easily.
Please let us know about the FR on the Sigma!
Thanks,
JerryS
