Nice work phil...

I am a little weary of that response though.

I am currently using the Reckhorn with a slightly high subsonic cutoff...

Just curious, how high?

I never noticed the AE logo on the sub until the latest group of pics you put up, looks nice. I have an AV15-X on the way, thanks for the box design inspiration.

Unfortunately the knobs on the B1 have no markings, but it's almost as high as it goes. I also am using the boost frequency on it at about 24Hz which sort of sharpens the roll-off (like another tent pole in the response graphed in my last post) so the signal I'm currently using would look a little more like a mesa than what I posted.

I am starting to get frustrated though, since I had much deeper roll-off using the EP2500 30Hz cut-off switch, and I spent $100 on this unit for that very purpose. It seems that a dedicated subsonic filter shouldn't have such a lazy trail off in the low end where it counts. My sub is quite powerful, but it's not designed to thunder with those 10Hz signals in content like the Incredibles or WOTW, at least at the levels I like to listen to movies.

I donn't know if John told you, but you can get those dust caps custom done with your own logo if you want, or even no logo at all.

I don't really have anything better to put on it. Blank might've been nice, but I think the logo looks professional.

how long did it take to get your av15-x from order placing to arriving? its been over a week and mine hasn't even been built yet.

the single orders are way backed up. they have so much demand that mine took ~6 weeks but when it came it was worth it. they hand make all their stuff in the US.
