Excuse my loudspeaker ignorance. Do you mean isobaric? as in two drivers in phase one in front of other to lower Fs. Or facing each other and out of phase same effect.

I once heard Isobaric's was it a Linn OEM product? Sounded good to me. but what I know about the why's and wherefores could be writen on the back of a fag packet. but I have heard plenty of stuff and I know what I like, why it works I don't know.

No, more like this: http://ibsubwoofers.proboards.com

It would be great to not have the subs in the listening room.

Oh wow, so some poor booger in the next room gets all your bass but nothing else.

Not practical in my house.

I don't know where the negative attitude comes from, Paul?

There has been some discussions on a Norwegian forum,
different solutions are being tested out, and I think it is interesting.
That's all.

Are we just talking about sealed-box bass or is there something more specific ?
I had a quick look at the link, but not easy to get the picture quickly .

I wouldn't call consideration for other people a negative attitude. But it's a free world, you call me negative if you want to. I don't agree with you.

Cool.
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.
