To @elliottbnewcombjr my buddy, I forgot to mention, the buddy has some dual 8" Omega subwoofer, sort of a limited production unit. Now they only seem to offer the 8" Deep hemp version, looks different. Before he switched in to the last two amps, he used that sub more regularly, now with the new Leben amp, he says he rarely turns the sub on any more. Says he "doesn’t really need it now" when pairing with Hersey IVs with his new Leben integrated tube amp. And, his listening space is NOT ideal btw, not fully enlosed on one side, open space. Not sure of the particulars, just likes the new amp pairing better with Hersey IVs fwiw.

Heresy IVs on their risers with their backs as close to the wall as possible and aimed at the listening position will easily go down to 40Hz. Power from tube amps is not an issue, my 3 watts per channel Luxman SQ-N150 could drive them as loud as I could want and my 6 watts per channel Luxman LX-380 drove them beautifully as well. Just remember that most music has very little information anywhere near 40Hz and the room and boundary reinforcement from your walls will help extend the bass to that frequency if there is any in the program. |
@decooney Regardless of the component in question any account of someone’s getting off the Merry-Go-Round makes for an interesting read. Thanks for sharing, nicely done. |
