Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

Russ, I'm with Duke (Hi Duke!) when he writes...

..."...dipoles have smoother in-room bass than monopoles do because of how they interact with the room itself, and this gives them better pitch definition in the bass region. You can more easily follow the notes the bass player is playing."

I love the sounds of my dipole-bass systems. Each channel uses a pair of Sonic Craft SCC300 12" drivers; they're driven with 2 300WPC-into-the 4-Ohm-load-they're-wired-as channels of an Outlaw 770. Filtering is done with the dbx DriveRack PA, 60Hz lowpass, 4th order.

Some time this summer I'll be building similar systems but with tops and which will serve as bases for the new, narrower dipole main system. I have SIX of these SCC300s, but I think I'll start with 2 each. The drivers will face left and right and not forward, since the main system will mount to the front of the bassbase.
