1.) Pure Direct mode, T1s full range. Bass level set to 1-o'clock.
2.) Stereo with subs, crossed over at 80Hz

After listening at higher volumes, at 90dB continuous with peaks well above 100dB, it seems pretty obvious now that the larger midrange drivers and extra bass is delivering the good at this end of the spectrum.


To be honest, I'm wowed by the T1s...

I'm probably going to go back and test with a lower crossover to the 18" subs. With the T2s, I needed 80Hz to get the best sound. With the T1s, I think 60 or even 40Hz might be better.

Hey murhpyslaw1978,

I too love the T1's. Congratulations on adding them to your system! As a reference, I have mine at 12 o'clock (Yes I'm a fellow basshead), and at -9.5 db gain for the .1 sub setting (with T2's on a separate .1 channel at 0 db gain). Bass is NOT a problem, just need to adjust to room conditions/room modes. My T1's and T2's are set as large/full. And you have those gorgeous 18" subs to play with.

I may have missed previous posts, but I'd love to get some feedback on how your new homebuilt subs sound with the GEt's.

As I said on a previous post, your set-up sure looks great, including those 18" drivers in I guess custom built cabinets!
