PBJ/BJ's Carver Line Source Prototypes
OldiesButGoodies:
The speakers are beautiful, finished in black. Listened to some Beatles and the reference standard, Pat Barber. A DSP 2x4 active crossover is used to pass only frequencies above 100 hz to the towers (and EQ things a bit, I am sure), the rest goes to a subwoofer. They sounded as you would expect speakers in that price range to sound like: wide/tall soundstage and excellent imaging (Rev though it holographic), very accurate/precise, as you would expect from a good line-source design. So yes, I am envious - congrats PBJ! (custodian in possession).

Very nice. An outboard sub, I assume.

The speakers go to about 100Hz and roll off from there. We're using a sub, but it's just a cheap polk, as budget is a factor. It really only tackles the super low stuff though, and it's doing the job quite well surprisingly.

Agree, did not sense the need for anything better, maybe change its position a bit if that. The bass was really good even w/o the sub. :P
