This is not video abut audio but more on acoustics and this guy knows his stuff. Anyway, since you already have KEF LS50 and you want good looking gear, I don't think you can go wrong with the
Hi Radio3,
I did some crude measurements using the RealTraps Test Tone CD and radio shack SPL meter. I tried the subwoofer crawl but realized how rediculous this method is (for me anyway). Bass response was down approximately 10db at 20Hz (My Radio Shack meter is probably very inaccurate in this range). Also when driven hard with a 20hz signal, it made some mechanical noises (sub was new and maybe not properly broken in). There was an article from some Australian reviewer with measurements on the web but I can't find it any longer. It measured very well but not much energy below 25Hz. I think the output of this sub is probably equal or slightly less to JL Audio E-Sub e110. I went with KEF due to visual matching and cone material that matches my R500. I hope this answers your question.
Thanks, yes that helps. I've been kicking myself for the last year for not buying one when they were so cheap everywhere. I think it's about like an SVS SB2000, though maybe with slightly less extension. I read that article too, and I thought it looked like it rolled off pretty slowly, so that if you have a couple subs you could EQ that bottom octave up a little and be fine. But no way to really know without actually trying, I suppose. I love that it is a dual opposing design. I'd love to have one up on a bookshelf to even out sound between seated and standing positions. The sub appear to almost be exactly the same as this KF 92, just with slightly different drivers (same size) and smaller amp. Was an incredible steal when on sale.
