First time I tried it was at my grade 11 physics professor's house. I liked it so much I started dating his daughter. To prove how good that stuff was, it wasn't his daughter, it was his mother in law.

Hmmmm...I'll dig up a photo Craig and I'd bet that mother-in-law would make you quite jealous

She's not THAT old. Oh ... you were thinking subwoofers? My rule of thumb is the subwoofer should be equal your main speakers, in terms of investment. Get two 800's and call me in the morning.

Speaking of Advil,
Here is one new item for the record books: I was experimenting with moving some furniture around to make space for anything new such as an 800..... I moved an antique cabinet which is about 36 inches tall, 28 inches wide, maybe 13 or so inches deep away from where I was thinking an 800 would go. I moved it over to an area of intense bass in the room. It's about 6 feet diagonally across from where the EP 500 is currently resting (where the new bar is going). Low and behold, my EP 500 is putting out what seems like another 9 db output. Reflection? No idea what just happened, maybe too much bourbon, but I don't think that I am imaging this. I think the relocation of this cabinet reinforced low frequency in the room. This is better than $9K speaker cables ha!

So many things influence bass. We had an aerostar van and the wife had a stereo put in with a 10 inch sub which they put behind the front seats. It impact was less than spectacular, by alot. I moved it to the back of the van and faced it toward the tailgate and it pounded like no other. Same effect when i built a 10" for my Ford Probe , it was a hatchback and facing the sub towards the back really made all the difference. You just dont know till you try different things. Corner loading is always a good place to start. Ihave never done the sub crawl but im sure it beats the hell outta lugging a 150lb sub around.

Uhmmmm...no. Another much lower integer comes to mind when I think of her.
