Post Subject: Using Exotic LF CDs for BassPosted by skushino on: 11/14/2016

Oxric, I can't imagine a CD making good sound so low. In my experience, paper cone drivers simply sound better than CDs below a certain point, let's say 250 Hz (usually higher). Of course there are always exceptions to every generalization, and I haven't heard every CD, most especially the exotic LF CDs, but after wasting too much time and $$$ looking at exotic solutions, I came to the conclusion that for me, most of the times, a more conventional approach, implemented with fanatical attention to detail, usually leads to happiness more often than pushing the envelop with exotica.
Having said that, I would be happy to be proven wrong.
