Oh @Bunniekins @ I have tried to broaden the musical fare over there. Its hard work and i do not need to assert my music tastes. I am into those styles@Dimity mentioned as well as a little rock. I laugh inside that its called Everything music. Its fine not an argument i am interested in.
Hey @tonys and all. This is first msg from my mobile device.... always learning

Hey @Appleblossom Hope you are having a well earned, fun weekend. I was hoping now and then you would put some of youre classical bouquets in' that thread'. Just to make that squeaky sound of, people shifting uncomfortably in there in their chairs , I'll suport em. . .
Yes, I know. . . you are too. . polite. and I'm just funning .
Well done on phone, had a repeater installed a few weeks back, so I get a little music by the river and the packing shed girls are getting utube on a T V they rigged up to a laptop.. . . Makes me wonder what they are doing working for me, they should be running silicon valley.
The things they get up too. Spins my head. Go have a great time
Travel safe, tonys mb 1

@tonys Ha ha running silicon valley ... I met an interesting dude in Canberra ... who may be able to help me harness the best in new and old tek to make music in the uber deep range, with an octave shifter .... I am not totally agin smart tek, just not the massive social takeover and over commercialisation of it for the benefit of a few. In the old days I used to know sciencey and tek types who were more interested in 'plowing' their 'fields' than getting hands dirty by money grubbing....
@StuF @Dimity ... and all ...
I had a lovely weekend, and tho I gave myself "low option" of taking this morning's yoga class off, I was up for it. Yay!
Got physio and dindin with son this arvo ... gotta get extra GOOD peanutbutter, cos no store bought sauce is good enuff for my boy's taste buds. Proud mamma bear. Half the dishes got done while I was away, with a promise of more done later ... grateful for all crumbs
cheers Apple

O K @Appleblossom thats peaked my interest bigtime As you probly heard, My Hi Fi is the Only thing I have in my place no rehomed from the tip. Its hard to find a subwoofer thats audio output peak curve is In the 10 to 30 hz range. below 20 Hz is inaudible, but that is where you really feel the deep sadness and emotion, in some music, and its the fun stuff that shifts furniture around to. Remember the old Movie, earth quake, Cerwin Vega , Did the sound for that. K L F is meets the specks but If I buy them I'll be living on those flying bugs I mentioned earlier, for the next 6 months, yea yea... gently bently.. But I am really curios
To know what you are doing. And about this fella in Canberra, You know how it is,
One door leads to another.
Anyway, really glad your back, Hope you and your friends left a fun sized tornado trail behind you. and if I see your smiling dial on a wanted poster,. . I'll cash in and buy my
sub woofer. . . removes tongue from cheek. . tonys m b 1
Oh , thanks for all those supports,
Its not hard to see I'm way out off my
depth, social worker, 101, so cheers

I got son studio monitors cos figured he was missing out on quality sound with all the new rubbish around. I already had 12 inch subwoofer when met his father, with tiny amp made from dicksmith kit. Looked homemade but sounded good.
smaller subwoofers but well made ... and good enuff ...
guitar shifters .... can be fine for both digital and acoustic signals according to guy I met and his sound sure seemed to match his word...cant give too much info as might be identifiable.

I thought crossovers determined what frequency went to which speaker 🔈 🔈 Radio Shackers lol I bought their book on speaker design but never got around to building any. I had marantz, wharfedale etc beautiful onkyo amp that weighed a tonne.. never anything that was really fit for purpose though. Look out house. Might turn a room into a speaker box lol.. been on headphones and $150 mini stereos wayy too long. Yes hearing dropping off last 5 years lots hammers grinders engines at work i came to dread hearing tests. @tonys @Appleblossom

well thats cool @Appleblossom If its the actual brand 'monitor' then we have the same speakers. I have the golds but all the monitor brands got great reviews. will check those links out when forums burns down to simmer later tonight, and thankyou so much for getting back to me with all of that. And yes they don't need to be big. Its about quality and taking the pressure of the mid range monitors.
My amp is a phase linear valve amp. They don't make them anymore.
Yes dic smith had some good stuff, and really good idea's Bet it sounds like crystal .. Anyway
another thing I'm "grateful ' for, your help hey. . . cheers @Appleblossom
Wanna hear something really funny, It rejected this post first go because i used mr smiths first name. Maybe I should have sent a pic. Oh but that wouldn't go well either.
ha ha he he.. . !
