Hi from the east canada


hey all,

i'm from montreal, always love listening and feel music since i was young. i started getting serious in the audio department and learned ALOT with car audio. unfortunalty, in september i got rid of the car and got a smaller car not worth installing audio equipment in, so I went ahead and got into home audio/ HT.

gotta have a system somewhere ! hehe

well. heres a little evolution of what a had/have.

my first real sub setup( aa arsenal 15" in 3.8NET @30hz with 67.5sq.inch):
sounded really flat, deep but dindt pass the 140s db sticked around 138-139, on music






my second sub setup( aa havoc 18" in 4.2NET @36hz with 73sq.inch):
was loud enough, snappy , sounded crisp and had some nice punch and lows but no low end extension like my first setup, but still sounded very good.







my third and last setup( 2 tc-10oem 10", each in 1.55cu.ftNET @40hz with39sq.inch )
even louder than both first and second setup, monster lows, LOT of excursion, noticeably lot louder and sounded very deep, yet, good and very controlled.





heres a little project i did just for fun:
was actually amazed, they have LOT of potential and sound good, got plenty low.




got lot of vid of these in here:

heres a little group pic of all the sub i had/have




Yes I am a pic freak , well i guess that shows you all what experience i have... dont have MUCh but still i love building boxes and all. anything audio related i adore.

Re: Hi from the east canada


well, now on to my room, heres what I had before:




now I'm working on a 2.2 HT/music system, heres with it consist:


xti1000 amplifier for bookshelves
xti2000 amplifier for 2 tc-10oem
2x art cleanbox for xlr to rca line converter

2 tc-10oem each in .78NET stuffed sealed enclosure

knukonceptz rca wires, monter 12gauge for subs and knu 10gauge for bookshelves, basic xlr wires.

and what itll consist:

b&w 685 bookshelves
x-fi pro elite as the source/preamp
widescreen monitor still not sure what size which model...


got half of the system done; here are some pics:
for now the xti1000 is running the sony bookshelves and they sound somewhat cleaner and louder.

Hello SQBubble and welcome to the Shack!

Yeah... for a minute there I thought maybe you had us confused with a car audio forum.

Re: Hi from the east canada


I love the driver pic: there's mama bear, and papa bear, and baby bears ...

Glad you've moved on to HT -- a lot more room to work with!

Welcome aboard!
