Re: Danley SM80 and others shootout Monday January 14 at Danley in Gainesville, GA.
Hey all a quick follow up to this thread now that I have since bought 4 th118's. I have come to a few conclusions.
1. I'm an idiot. Justification to be found in the next point.
2. In my quest to replicate the tremendous sensitivity difference we found that day between the TH118 and the sb1000 I have learned that the comparison that day was far from fair. We may have only been listening to one driver in the sb1000 because somebody (<--) forgot that the drivers are on separate pins. :roll: So we where hearing half an sb1000 with f'ed up tuning.
3. I am still not disappointed in my purchase because the sound quality alone is reason enough to justify them. I'm just not hearing much of a sensitivity difference when swapping the nl4 between the two cabinets with pink noise (should be the same voltage right?).
4. I'm going to try and get some traces of both subs outdoors. I'm not setup to do absolute measurements, but I can do what I feel are useful relative measurements. I'll measure both side by side, unused sub shorted, same filters applied, and simply swap the cable while running pink noise (again, the voltage should be the same).
