For all you Bose 901 Haters!
Arthur Bach’s 901’s? Just under $500. in 1969 dollars. Series V just over $1500 in 1984 dollars. Novel but over priced. Those Avalon Radian’s would be far more interesting, even today.  
Persona B + Rel to the next upgrade
Steve, perfect. Nice to have an in home direct comparison. The weekend I replaced my Paradigm Studio 100’s with used Avalon Eidolon’s, I was auditioning a dealers pair of S8’s. Not at all a cost wise fair comparison but one that allowed for a det... 
Speaker Gratification
moose, good for you. There aren't many who've experienced the advantage of remote subwoofer control as well as the flexibility that customizable memory presets can have on varied recordings all while maintaining an analog presentation above the c...

Remote Volume Control for a Sub Woofer
Emailists, FYI, the plastic on my 2011 subs remote became sticky from what seems like age. Has yours?  
Remote Volume Control for a Sub Woofer
I think there may be third part bluetooth controlled wireless devices available. I use the volume and/or select one of the six programed to memory equalization presets using the remote control quite often with the Velodyne DD Plus'. With some LP... 
Placement of Single Subwoofer Affecting Sound of Main Speakers
+1 jl35's crawl test suggestion. Most any room has an optimum location for a single subwoofer that will result in efficient performance at the listening position.  You'll need a pair of long interconnects and an extension power cord. Monoprice o... 
Try a sub a third in the back
oldhvymec, thanks for taking the time to share your explanation, I did not know that. Peppercorn putty balls, all right! Adding an extra low frequency system seems to be a great deal of trial and error regardless. It's nice to hear when someone l... 
Try a sub a third in the back
They are tuned to the room through, Putty Pinching. Perfect integration without digital correction.. Pretty cool actually. 50-100 sand bags worked the best. The slot glued to the floor so to speak.. Ceiling will work too. :-) oldhvymec, this se... 
What do you guys think of adding a subwoofer to this system?
+1 Mr. Squires. Bob, if you are overwhelmed by all the varied responses of models, brands and settings don't despair. Until you have heard your system with a properly set up subwoofer/s you may decide against even using them.    Even though a su...
