Bottom line, i've said again and again is that it sounded fine.
It's not some golden ear BS, its simple comparison.
Your ears didnt hear any problems, so there were no problems. But you dont have 'golden ears', right? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif Comparing to other systems has three fundamental flaws. One, you were comparing different setups. For all you know, or we know, the systems you compared it to had even worse installs. Two, personal bias. Of course you think your system sounded the best, you thought your dodge pick up had some exotic racing chip in it, and you think your 245hp car will turn tire at will even while doing decent speeds on dry pavement. Im sure if you did a comparison to your friends, you'd decide your shit smells like roses too. Three, your ears are not golden, and you have no way of knowing if the system would have sounded better had it been designed right (no multi-sized subs).
Really? There is no such thing as a bandwagon on CA.COM!?!?!?!?! OMFG!!!!!!!! I would like to see a count of people who have either attempted to engineer a multi sub setup, or heard one that didn't consist of at least one sony Xplode? I'm betting that number is pretty small. It wasn't the different sized subs that made people jealous, it was the fact that someone you viewed as inferior in skill to you could afford such nice equipment. It's like watching a monkey handle a bottle of fine wine. It's almost painful to watch. I know, i've felt it too.
Like I said, your ego would rather believe some vast conspiracy against you personally from a bunch of strangers than it would believe you might *gasp* be wrong. Narcissism, the tell-tale sign of an over inflated ego.
What you are doing is pot-kettling, Trying to explain to me that my setup had acoustic problems a common same size setup lacks. Well it simply doesn't.
It doesn't? I thought that multi-sized setup was no more? I think your paranoia and defnsive nature is starting to create a situation where you are losing of track of what you are even defending.
Spreading the peak frequency in the 2 sub types apart gave me a fairly even response.
After reading your response that stock systems do it, so it must be 'right', Im no longer surprised you were/are unable to build a subwoofer system that is able to maintain a flat response for a mere 2 octaves. Seems to me you just admitted you **** at building sub systems, as if it wasn't already obvious.
IEven compared to some setups? I'm sure there are MORE than plently that could put it to shame on an RTA, however, to the common ear it was perfectly acceptable for a daily driver.
I never said it wasn't 'perfectly acceptable', Ive always maintained it was simply a less than ideal situation, and completely unnecessary. Acceptable to your ears? Yes, Im sure it was, but that's hardly the point, except to the guy who thinks he'd hear any and every problem that might occur within his system. The guy with the golden ears.
Right, because the people sitting in the back seats shouldn't be able to hear the music being played in the front seats. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif And every stock system, (and most aftermarket systems) in the world don't follow this example? BAHAHA and I'm the one bucking the common knowledge now? I tell you what, why don't you publish this bullshit audioholic theory that different speakers always produce an unfavorable response when playing the same frequencies. You will revolutionize all the current theories with that piece of bullshit you just pulled out of your ***.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
People sitting in the back seat are irrelevant. Id say "and you know it" but honestly, I dont think you are even following the point any longer. Having rear passengers hear the stereo better means nothing to the discussion of if rear speakers interfere with fronts. How many serious SQ competitors have you heard of that run rear speakers? At best, they mighht run rears heavily attenuated and bandpassed, so as to minimize interference with their front stage. Ambiance, rear-fill, nothing more. Most wont bother with rears at all. Maybe you think all those SQ guys simply dont have enough friends to fill their back seats? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
I guess because Ford and Kia put rear speakers in their cars, that proves your acoustical theory? I honestly cant believe Im even debating with someone at your experience level and mentality. If I didnt get so much personal satisfaction out of it, Id dismiss your comments as the nonsensical ramblings of just another know-it-all idiot in the car audio hobby and save my breath for someone with more knowledge. But like I say, you amuse me.
Show me evidence that suggests the opposite? I dare YOU. Just because something might not be the most ideal way to do something doesn't mean its not a way to do something.
Just cant bring yourself to admit you cant find one single solitary shred of evidence to support your argument eh? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif I asked you to support your view, even stipulated you only needed to provide a mere single example from a reputable source, and you think you will turn that back on me by simply demanding me to disprove your claims? Again, if you want to shut me up, find one, just ONE source, go ahead. lol Keep squirming and dodging the fact you cant, I see right through you.
But I'll oblige you so far as to state that NO serious SQ competitor uses multiple sized subs for subsonic freqs. Not one. Go ahead, show me up and post up one, ONE. You cant. So you'll squirm, you'll divert, you'll try anything but admit you've looked and you've failed. So I'll ask again, since this is a well discussed topic, multiple sub sizes, it should be easy to find even just one single solitary reference to back you up. The more you refuse, the more obvious it is that you cant. I'll cut you off at the pass and tell you that people such as Vance Dickason and Richard Clark have discussed this topic... care to guess what their stance was? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif So go on, shoo, go find your source that says multiple sub sizes is necessary, and a good idea. Then come back and claim you wont even look, rather than admit you failed. Meanwhile I, and anyone else who is bothering to read this anymore, will be laughing.
