Then a pair of subs to do the below 60hz business as there was no bass really worth calling bass.
So what you end up is bolting together a bag of bits that aren't actually a proper speaker design, in order to address the basic deficiencies.
Fun to play with but a dead end. Conclusion: it's better just to go and get some proper speakers, designed by a proper designer, and be done with it.
the frugalhorn xl here for several months had very good bass , enough to feel satisfied after playing organ music . the top end was extremely revealing . they were just slightly toppy on a few tracks but overall they were very good indeed . i would have them back in a flash if i could
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
