[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 26017, member: 30"] Re: Need some new tops to go with my subs, need a bit of help. In addition to what the others have said-historically people have used Y adaptors to get the HF's louder. Yeah they do get louder-but because of the way these devices sum together, the response gets all whacked out. They get louder only by additional power capacity-not so much by the drivers summing together acoustically. So it may be louder (if that is all you are interested in) but it does not maintain the same sound quality as a single driver. Just like adding more cabinets to get the sound louder. It may be louder-but will never sound as good as a single box due to the interactions between drivers and coverage patterns. [/QUOTE]
