Oh-kay...
Another sub post..
What are everyone's thoughts on being a good neighbour while owning badass subs? Get a smaller sub? Turn the volume down? Etc etc? Driver size, power considerations?
Situation:
1. Subs in question: HSU STF2 and Adire Rava.
Downfiring, ported, 10" vs. Sidefiring, sealed, 12".
2. 90 percent Music, 10 percent HT.
3. HARDWOOD floors, 4th floor apartment!
4. Room size approximately 22 x 15 x 8
5. System: m60s, Denon 1604, Toshiba Dvd player
6. Listening habits: from medium loud to low volume listening at late evenings and night, need to bring out the low freq. for latter.
7. Aesthetics, black box vs oak veneer!
From what I have researched so far, it seems that a downfiring, sub in question, STF2 on hardwood floors while
undeniably great, might not be very neighbour-friendly. Have also read that the Rava, as a sidefiring unit, might be a better choice here. Also as it is mainly for music-listening, the latter comes highly recommended for being faster, tighter...
Thoughts, folks?
