In the immortal words of Frank Barone, "Holy Crap!"
I've had a JBL 10" 100watt sub for the last 8 years and have enjoyed my HT immensely. Last night, my enjoyment shifted to giddiness and then euphoria and I've only had a couple of minutes to mess with it. Basically right out of the box, it blew me away.
I had been planning on putting my HT on it's own circuit for some time and after reading the inside front page for the LFM-1, that gave me reason to do it. The whole system is now on it's own 20 amp circuit. So, the LFM-1 was sitting in my living room/ht for a whole day without anything to do but wait for me to finish the wiring.
My wife went to bed early but said it was okay if I wanted to test it out. I finished the wiring about 11:15 and by 11:30 I had the Finding Nemo disc out. (Chapter 24 and 25....24 is the pigeon chase and 25 is Darla banging on the aquarium.) I played it once with the old sub...nice. Then I played it with the LFM-1....YOW! What a difference. I'm not kidding you when I tell you the entire house shook at a reasonable volume level. If I'd had it cranked, I might have shaken my wife out of bed.
Again, I've only had a chance to mess with it a little bit so I haven't played any music yet (mine will be used 99% HT though) but the sound is very tight and not rumbling like my old sub. I'll try and post again after I've messed with it for a while and demo'd more material. But I am even more impressed so far than I was expecting....and I was expecting a lot.
Run, don't walk, to your nearest computer and order the LFM-1 if you're in the market for a sub. You will not be disappointed. Kudos to the Outlaws!
