Rakesh,

Yes, life is too short but the definition of belter ULF channel is not something that one might learn during "a project next coming weekend". The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of time I am afraid. Let pretend that tomorrow I will build/buy some kind of speaker that would do the perfect ULF channel for me. The main question would be: the perfection of that ULF channel is something that the driver and enclosure demonstrate or it is something that I am able to recognize?

There is a huge amount of people in audio who do anything doable but who failed to develop of understanding and interpretation of results. You can see tone of them at DIYaudio.com forum and at many other locations – they move hand and do actions but their projects do not advance them from listening and human perspective. This is why I never like the entire DIY community.

What I am trying to say is that the ultimate ULF channel is not only a combinations expensive driver in some kind of enclosure. The most valuable in an ultimate ULF channel is not a driver but the vested amount of system owner thoughts about what kind bass she/she is willing to get. This understanding comes literally with years. You can buy drivers; recruit a carpenter, build or by enclosures but it would serve only a solution but not satisfaction. The satisfaction is fulfillment of objectives and in my estimate a person need first to develop well formed  objectives, very clearly visualize the result and ONLY then, after the concept is conceived and clearly indentified, ONLY THEN the person might render the objectives.

With all frankness I thought that I have a very clear idea how I would like my sound from ULF to be. I have been thinking about it for years, looking what other do and visualizing how different I would like it to be in my own playback. However, the last few months, since I finished my midbass project, my views slightly changed. Nowadays I would like to have less ULF to midbass integration and I would like my ULF NOT to be a continuation of Music but rather to be a separate stand-alone awareness of Sound.  It is not as bad as it sound in writing and it need to be demonstrated, not explained at a web site. Unfortunately I can’t demonstrate it even to myself and I have the notion as a pure fiction of my mind, sort of a hallucination, a dream that I would like one day to render as a reality.  I do not have an itch about it, I perfectly might go along without it, using ULF as they are but if I do something about my ULF then I would like to navigate explicitly to what I want.
