dbstedt Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Maybe, when you aren't busy testing or playing a ref+++, you driver only two or four woofers at a time. I like this idea but not for 'break-in' but for evaluating the performance envelope and limits of the box / driver. The tricky thing might be dealing with the unpowered boxes. Shorting the leads will help but not eliminate the interference. Would you be willing to try this at some point? Compare system performance with one / two / four boxes?

dbstedt Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yeah I could do that. What area of system performance did you have in mind? Just curious how much headroom you're dealing with. Can one box (or two) be driven hard enough to provide 'enough' clean output compared to the four? Will distortion become an issue, and if so at what point? If this was a single box you would be able to compare gains of adding drivers to the shared box volume (like MK's mini-IB). I like evaluating how a system performs and also at trends as you add / remove capacity from that system. Where is the sweet spot, etc. What do you actually gain by adding drivers, volume, power?

Infrasonic Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 No way can you find another pair of Snake Oil interconnects for less than $12,000 for a set of 6ft RCA cables. Balanced ones are going to require an additional charge, of course. Pairs are matched at the lab at no additional charge. We strive to bring you only the best in inter-channel crosstalk reduction.

lukeamdman Posted March 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Years ago I bought a sub from a guy on CL that had cable lifters and these really bizarre looking speakers stands with tiny monitors on them.

Are you happy with the Snake Oil products you have purchased from us? This is WAY more fun than hypotheticals about comparing drivers. Who says this place is just about bass, huh?!? Oh, whoops.
