Another strange sub design...
« on: January 10, 2025, 10:42:08 PM »
... at least for me.  It's the mighty Dayton Audio MKSX4 Four 4" Driver Low Profile Passive Subwoofer.  Yes, it has four 4" long throw drivers that are somehow manifolded into a big square opening.  At $70 for a restocked unit, curiosity killed me.  :-[ 

It reminded me of one of Ed's creations that seem to defy intuition, physics, good sense, etc.  ;)  Once I get to play with it, I'll let you know what happens.

Since it's hard to discuss one's impressions on sound quality online, maybe some sound measurements would help to determine the quality of this sub.  But the price is good (considering the inflation these days).

I guess the weird sub will have to wait.  It seems that Parts Exp. cancelled my order and refunded my money without explanation.  Maybe next time....

edit:  01/21/25 - I just ordered another restocked unit.  Maybe this time it'll happen.

Nice to hear from some of the Members. Ive been suffering from withdrawl not seeing new posts. Can anyone recommend a good glue for the veneer on my Horns, I guess being in storage even for the short time of my move to Arkansas put the whammy on some of the sides.
