that is a hemkin massive speaker

is it a subwoofer specifically?

[rough mesa]

Its huge.. what's that capable of?

B A S S

[quasi trout]

around 4kw, its build for 20Hz and below. For the moment I have to do with a small one. Soon to start building

[rough mesa]

Jesus it does infrasound?

[quasi trout]

Yes, aimed at movies and such.

[rough mesa]

Wow, I'm sure itll sound good. Just dont get sick lol

[quasi trout]

Even this small one gets to 118dB @ 25Hz.

[thorny sundial]

you can't even hear below 20hz...

[rough mesa]

holy crap.

[thorny sundial]

even just above it, it's less of a sound and more of a feel.

[rough mesa]

exactly, if its loud enough itll make you sick

huh

I'm still guessing that it's less of a sound and more of a feel

[quasi trout]

Well most speakers can't even properly play 30Hz and below without Harmonic distortion.
as a headphone I use a Corsair HS Haptic 60 it's does go below 20Hz cause it uses a Haptic Bass as a separate subwoofer.

[rough mesa]

Hmm, do you run any type of sound bar on your TV? or just separate wall or ceiling mounts, with an amp?

[quasi trout]

Separates Surround Amplifier + Power Amplifier that drives the subwoofer.
I aim at 105dB for the Satellites 80Hz to 20KHz and the Sub takes over at below 80. Sub needs to be able to atleast get 115dB with minimal distortion, cause DTS has 10dB reserve for Low Freqeuncy.

[rough mesa]

Very nice setup. I likely wouldn't be able to afford that lol.

[quasi trout]

Well most is second hand and the Sub I just build myself that makes quite a bit of difference. And I bought the parts in like multiple steps.

[rough mesa]

Ah I gotcha. Honestly I probably couldnt get into high end audio, I would never be able to listen to anything else again 😂

[quasi trout]

That is very True.

[rough mesa]

My dad runs fosgates in his car and my cheap jbls sound like absolute shit compared to those. Before I thought they sounded pretty good lol

[quasi trout]

I mean you work with what you have. And remember it's much easier to create a desirable sound pressure in a car it's way smaller. But looking around especially second hands can make a world of difference and you don't need to brake the bank.

[rough mesa]

Very true, I have a old 94 s10 Blazer, basically a rectangle so any sub in that vehicle makes it sound great due to the shape

[quasi trout]

😉

these arent "builds"
