INFRALANAR --- A Planar Subwoofer!

98.85.46.172

I don't visit this forum very often so I honestly don't know if this has been discussed here before or not. However as I was perusing the internet I came across this planar subwoofer and immediately thought about all the Maggie and ESL users that would love to know about this speaker ---{that is if they don't know about it already}--- and so I decided to post the info here.

I hope this helps at least one Maggie or ESL user fulfill their dream of having an all dipole, planar system by finally finding a subwoofer that's as fast and clean as their Maggies or ESL speakers are! They're not cheap, but at 92dB they are sensitive and they don't require a monster monoblock to make music either...

An alternative I built many years ago is a dipole subwoofer using a large dynamic driver - I used a Hartley 24" in my set-up with electronic EQ. About 1/2 the air displacement (in theory), smaller package and much lower cost, albeit with a used driver.

using double diaphragms although those are pricier still. Brian Walsh has a Chicago area customer with U-1s and U-1B subs using the steel frames.

  Particularly for headphones.
