[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 56932, member: 46"] Re: lighten up some subs Alan, with all due respect to you........while our ears are important to the process, our ears are absolutely NOT reliable. There is tons of hearing research that demonstrates this, and even respected "golden ear" types in the industry will acknowledge this. Certainly "if it sounds good it is good" applies sometimes, but your advice to the OP of this thread is very misguided. If you had a good grasp of the design of that particular sub and the properties of its horn, it would be quite clear to you that the original driver should not be casually replaced. Additionally, changing the driver makes the cabinet no longer a UCS1, it becomes a DIY box. Bye bye resale value. [/QUOTE]
