Mr. NightroI hear what you are saying to a degree.
However, keep in mind the average listner, owns
a mini system in their homes. So, anything that
sounds better than that will be incredible to
them
There a some of us, that want it above average.
We are our worst critic, and strive constantly
to sound better, than previous gigs.
Those are the guys (including myself) that need
to know the numbers.
Check out the post regarding "Subs Deploying,
And The Round". The response alone, should tell
you, this forum, is about optimising the sound
with no compromise.
While I do understand the nature of the Tuba,
I agree 100% with JR that this is a pro audio
forum. One of the
only forums on the
net, that can get into the specifics, regarding
pro audio.
If the specifics are not explained, or, measured,
then there will be alot of disgruntal Labsters
speaking their mind.
The happy users of the Tuba are estatic, and, want
to share their good fortune. However, they don't
have the experience to get into the specifics.
So, when the benefit of doubt is addressed, and,
people ask the designer, the answers are not given.
With that being said. Say, you wanted to build
eight of these boxes, and, needed to know how
would they respond under those conditions. Would
you be willing to risk the time and effort of
building so many boxes, not getting a ballpark
estimate on the performance?
Hopefully someone will bring four Tubas to the
Subwoofer Shootout in Texas, so all the praising
can be justified.
