[QUOTE="LoudSound, post: 8544622, member: 671797"] looked it up. so beaming is basically loss of sound at certain frequencies when your head is not facing the speaker directly? the website I read said 2800 Hz for the 8". You can add a dedicated midrane to battle it though. I guess I was giving advice based off of MY preferences but I did say to the guy decide what you are going after, I think that is what every build should start with. Well, depends what music you listen to I guess. I listen mostly to rap and electronic music like dubstep and stuff, so I don't really NEED an SQ system for that. The 8' and the bullet tweeters do just fine. Goes good with loud bass too. I know a 2 way wouldn't be good for rock. And I will definitely read more about science of sound, BUT watch this and let me know what you think =) [MEDIA=youtube]GDzoiXAbOr4[/MEDIA] That is impressive for 2 pairs of $54 dollar speakers is all I'm saying.
