In the Thread: A listening room for a domesticated Cat?
Post Subject: I am looking for inspiration.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 7/10/2017
I had a good listening session this Sunday. The Tchaikovsky 5 and Mahler 3rd. I shut down my ULF and was listening just with the rest of the system. I was thinking what the hell I can do with lower knee of my midbass. I absolutely adore what Vitavox dove in upper and mid region. Now I need to think about the lower end and it is not so good and it even screws up my ULF. This is very problematic thinking as a pair of VItavox per channel (in parallel) does a perfect much to my system in term of acoustic output with a fully opened Milq and I for sure would like do not lose it. 
 
The idea it build a larger box that is kind of sound rational does not attracts me. The Vitavox 15” that I use has QTS of 0.202 AND IT IS very problematic for sealed enclosure. The only way how it might be “worked” is to have smallish box and overly damped wall. Something that I have done and it worked very fine as experiment but not going to be good enough as a perm solution. I knew it and this is why I did not invest a lot on the interim midbass project. Now is the question is: what to do next. 
 
With the Vitavox 15” the QTS is begged to be make is ported box but I do not like any ported sound. I might smudge QTS by using a narrow horn with front porting but I never like how this topology sound. To change drivers is kind of problematic as I need a pair of 100db woofers, hard to get with good sound. So, I am not sure what to do and I am looking for inspirations.
