In Reply to: It seemed, from what I've read, to be a particular problem with the Quads posted by Chris from Lafayette on September 4, 2024 at 12:43:03:
Per Quadmaster Kentaja, 57s have about 600 sq in of panel area. The 1+1s used in my HT have slightly more at about 720 sq in and really do need augmentation by subs for decent first octave output.
The Sound Labs, by comparision have 2350 sq in.
