I ran speaker line level inputs into a small sub with a SA70. (Voxel?)
Noticed that you needed both L and R inputs to get a decent volume.
No SQ issues.

I had a number of problems using the alligator clip jumper wires - measurements would vary from day to day with the same crossover. So I started soldering my own clips with 18G wire, and often doubling up clips if possible to minimize resist…
I had a Lenovo desktop that had some "audio enhancement" software running sort of under the covers that messed with measurements. Make sure that crap is turned off, if not removed.
I was initially offended when I read about Linkwitz' experiments with rear facing tweeters and omni designs. He said "it sounds interesting". And now that's what I think. I've heard the highly touted MBLs and they sound great, but they don…
I have been trying to learn "good" 2 channel measurements and importing into Vituixcad. Still not quite "up tp speed" on that. In the meantime, I can take some quick measurements in Omnimic and use Xsim to get me into the ballpar…
I did a headphone "shootout" a few years ago with a musical buddy. We had the Drop Senn 6xx, the ESS headphones, and one other "mid-fi" pair. Over a variety of tracks I expected one pair would "shine", but what we found…
I haven't spent a lot of time tweaking a crossover on the pair I have, but brief listening, even with the peaks and dips of my pair was very enjoyable. Brief measurements showed very low distortion. The large Sd provides great dynamics.
I was thinking press fit. You could also incorporate some kind of springy "catch", using clothespins maybe. The attachment I don't think is critical, a quick test should show good damping of the rear wave. From there you can consider a &qu…
With high sensitivity woofers, those ESS tweeters will really shine.
I keep meeting people here who want high sensitivity speakers, but they don't have any budget.. Sad.
A search today for a long 1/4 x 20 bolt in stainless steel (non magnetic) proved fruitless.
Suggest stainless steel 1/4" all thread and a nut brazed on the top and a plastic cover.
I've got a pair that is 5 years old, and has the well known bumps in the FR. I got a new pair about a year ago and it is significantly flatter. But even the older ones sound awesome. So much radiating area.
