Blending Dayton RS621 Speaker Kit & Titanic Sub

[jimofoakcreek]

I have the Titanic 10" subwoofer that I want to use with a pair of small hi-WAF speakers. I am considering the Dayton RS621 Speaker Kit.

I have the Titanic out of sight near a corner. Will the Dayton RS621 Speakers integrate with the subwoofer even though the sub is not centered between them? In other words do the Dayton RS621 Speakers go low enough? My current MMG Planars go down to about 60hz and blend with the sub with no problem.

The key here is remember the sub will not be beween the speakers but offset at the side of the room. The room is 18X24.

that kit will have an f3 of 83hz an f6 of 65hz at 60hz an f7 so if you want to cross at 60hz you have to eq the sat or kit speaker. if you want to cross at 80 to 90hz you may not.

Here is my setup with the same sub that you have. I prefer the corner location. You won't be able to tell the location at frequencies that low. I do try to keep the sub somewhat close to the same distance from the listener, coming from the same listening plane. This sub blends great with my usher/peerless speakers or the BR-1s.

I think it is your project that I am reviewing at the moment. I am considering building the Usher 8945P / Peerless HDS Two-way. Is that your project?

It is most likely not mine. There are a few that I have seen, I have only uploaded photographs of the build. Dthomas did the crossover on mine.
