You are incorrect, it is car stuff! And they are not that expensive compared to the competition.

To my eyes, they look a lot like Steg amps.

Tried this, the speaker seection? http://www.diyaudio.com

For a closed box, you use Qts, Fs and Vas. Vb will then give you the Qtc you are after, for example, the flattest response=Qtc 0.707. I've been told that for a sealed, a Qtc of 0.8 will sound even better, I don't know. 0.8 will however give you a smaller box than 0.707. For a sealed box, you...

I've just seen a definition of a subsonic filter. Unfortunately, it is in swedish, so I hope I get my translation somewhat correct. It says that a subsonic filter is all but a normal highpass filter, and that the only difference is that it works with the frequencies at the very bottom end of...

Could it have anything to do with the install? I was thinking in ways like on/off axis and the like, that is, the directions they are pointing towards the listener?

Well, that's what I anticipated about the Mcintoshes, I know their reputation is rock-solid in home Hi-Fi. For all other, I guess the views are divided as usual, but I would guess I can't go that wrong with a 6-channel, 12 years plus, is definitely plenty of time! When being a newbie, trying...

Good to know, I stick with my bridging plans then.

Sounds a bit weired, maybe it's some kind of quasi-balanced inputs, that is, not true balanced inputs? Have you checked the manual if it says something on the matter?

If I could justify the cost, I've been told to stay away from 5-6-channel amps due to that they are kind of new beasts, and therefore their powersupplies can be inferior to 4-channel amps and less, anyone second that statement? Maybe Mcintosh is different, they must be used to powersupplies by now.

I've been thinking that way as well. I just do not want to end up with rubbish, and how do I avoid that?

I apparently forgot to mention that I will go active, and it was my intention to mention that the 4-channel amp was to be bridged. Is it a bad idea to bridge the amp when going active, if so, why is that, I've never heard that one before. So, if bridging is out of the question when going...

So, I have finally reached a what I believe to be managable number of options for the front system. I have three main choices with two sleeper options for later if need be. The three main contenders are: DLS Iridium 6.2i Hertz MLK165 Morel Elate 6 I think that it don't really matter which...

Why is that? I've heard the opposite earlier, and would like to hear the argument for soldering as well.
