OK, my friend with the two LFM-1s just called me with some more info on the new sub: a little more powerful amp (maybe 50 watts more), slightly different enclosure, called LFM-1 Plus, priced around $700, comes with port plug, bass extension switch bring it down to 20Hz.

What separates from the Hsu version is that Outlaw's believe in downfiring ports, which will usually fire into a nearby carpet/floor, cutting down on chuffing compared to a back firing port that fires into the air. For listeners, it basically means less port noise complaint (as Philip Roth would say).

My friend is tempted to buy two of the Plus subs at the show (to go with the two LFM-1s he already has). Peter said he would sell them to him Sunday evening.

Was at HE 2006 (Pictures) and had a real good time. The Outlaw demo was very good. 4 LFM-1 Plus' in the room. Also got the deck of cards and was sworn not to sell them on eBay. I put my entry in the hat in hopes of winning an LFM, no call yet. I also liked the demo from Earthquake audio, they had some speakers that really had a kick. I still can't believe how much sound they can get out of a 6.5 inch driver, it's was amazing.

Did they say if the LFM-1 Plus was a replacement for the LFM-1 or an addition to the subwoofer line? Were there any other new goodies announced or any mention of show specials?

I suspect the Plus is a new model, not sure. I think there was another amp, but I forgot to read the information on it (they all look similar).

The specials were 3 different packages. I believe they were all receiver and sub packages.

The other specials were that they were selling everything at the show at low prices so they wouldn't have to bring them back.

I agree, I thought the Hsu speakers (like Klipsch Ref bookshelf) sounded very good. I think I liked them better than most of the stuff there. I guess it's something about the horn for treble, and they don't cost as much as a car. The Totem speakers were also nice. They used a long thin speaker for the home theater stuff and just turned the speaker 90 deg for the center channel.

Thanks, unl1983 - that sub package (LFM-1 Plus and SMS-1) in particular is a pretty sweet deal! It sounds like the 7200 is a descendent of the 770 (7x200W, unbalanced only) with the new faceplate style.

Well....I happen to be the friend with the "BASS ADDICTION"
Gonk..the LFM-1Plus will be an addition to the LFM line...not a replacement for the LFM-1....this came direct from Peters mouth.
Hope this helps.

Later

When will all of these "Show Specials" and new products (sub and amp) be on the Outlaw site for
those of us that weren't there?
