Default OT- Sharing a great experience with you

I forgot to mention that by far, most people who use subwoofers have them
set way too loud. This causes the bass to be boomy, flabby & anything but
tight & realistic. A subwoofer to a sound system is like salt is to a good
food dish; the right amount is great, but too much totally ruins it!

Big ditto on that. Heck, most folks that run like that I think must have
hearing loss. They don't so much hear the music as they feel the bass
thump.

The really big benefit to a subwoofer IMO though is for a home theater
surround sound. Its those subsonics that make your hair stand on end that
really complete the big dramatic tension feeling when the train goes over
the side of the mountain.

Everyone in this group sits at a computer to take part here, but there is
no question that my environment & experience while doing so is probably
far, far more enjoyable than yours. You can easily upgrade your
experience to equal mine by continuing to read this.

I am kind of an expert on a few things, but I am a full blown expert on
one subject for certain: knowing high quality music reproduction. As some
of you are aware, I was deeply involved in the Hi-Fi business for many
years before going into the fishing tackle business, & have been
professionally recognized for no small number of audio breakthroughs,
unknowingly used worldwide today by most people, including you.

For the last few years I embarked on a quest for the best & most
affordable computer sound system a person could ever want. That quest
ended a month ago, & I have lived with it for that month. It appears I
have totally lucked out again & I can share it with you if you wish. The
total cost to you should not exceed $350.00. No skills or technical
ability is necessary to hook it up, & installation should take a few
hours maximum. It uses a self-amplified, but very small home subwoofer.
Mine sits under my desk, but if necessary it could be placed even in a
different part of your room with no sound degradation. It also uses one
pair of very compact self-amplified full range speakers that you can
hopefully place in front of you, equally spaced from your head. These
speakers hook directly to your computer, which needs no special outputs
to run it. This system will then become your computers sound system for
anything & everything. The average listener would tweak & adjust it off &
on for a few hours, & then never touch it again.

Here are the items you will need, but there is one rule you must follow:
Buy exactly what I am telling you to buy here. This is not just a
suggested guide... substitute anything else at your own risk, & I promise
that it will not work as well. This perfectly matched system will
probably sound far better than anything you ever had in your home or car,
and here is exactly what you want. These are available on line, & dealers
can be easily located on Google or elsewhe

~ 1 pr. Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 speakers (about $100-$120).
~ 1 KLH #PS-8 Subwoofer.

That's it! Enjoy...
