??? about speakers by Visaton

[Benny the 2.]

Hi everybody out there.

I would like to collect some different views upon speaker kits from the german manufacturer VISATON.
I have build quite a few kits made by them and I’m a member of their discussion board too.

But now I want to get some views upon their kits from people, who I don’t know personally.

My intention is to re- build my current speakers into the "Atlantis"...

Has anyone of you heard this Kit before? Please write down every point of view, you have.

Later on I plan to set up speakers for use in a rather small home cinema. These will be made of "Aria", combined with an active subwoofer.

It is a setup for use in flats, so it is mostly for low- level- DVD- watching...

Do you think, this is a good choice, I’ve made? Please leave a note on this point too...

I know,on this board the brand VISATON isn’t used so much...
And sorry for my bad english, too...

greetings, Benny

We have some revelation results using a couple of dirt cheap but awesomely coherent Visaton FRS8's (8Ù, nonshielded is the star), in pushpull dipole plus a 6.5'' crossing 6dB @ 800Hz.

Why not add a sub instead of redesigning an existing speaker that works fine? With the Atlantis' dual woofers I assume your quest is for more bass? How low did you plan on XOing to the woofers?

I thought about adding a sub, but here in this flat, I'm linving in, it is a problem finding place...

Yes, I want a little more bass...

My Sub plays with 2x Visaton GF 200 in 80 l (separate chambers). I have attached a pic...

I have a "Detonation DT 150" here, and if I could find a place for my sub I would be very happy...

I wish a cutoff nearby 100 Hz...
