After reading alot of posts, about some Zens produce good Bass and others are lazy down there. The growing theme seems to be, you need a Decent sized woofer, rather then just a high efficiency. The best results for bass seem to be coming from guys running 12" woofers, even some people running high eff, 92db+ 8" woofers complain of poor bass responce, so am I right in thinking, when it comes to the low end of the Zen, dont worry to much on the efficiency, just go big, and light cone material?
Low damping factor (high output impedance) of the ZEN results in poor bass control. Output power is too low. So you have to find efficient speaker. The result will also depend on the kind of music you listen to.
Let’s face it. Size does matter.
