i will pair it with psw150..
or any recommendation mga masters?
i will be using it mainly for music..
sometimes movie and occasionally for pc games?

i used to have a 9.1 and 9.2, had the chance to do a&b comparison of the two.. highs and mids sounds almost the same but the bass coming out of the 9.2 sounds fuller and more natural.  for music use, the 9.2 is my pick even without a sub, low end response would be sufficient. the 9.2 sound more musical..

for me, a 9.2 in 2.0 set up sounds better the a 9.1+12"sub in 2.1 set up for playing music (audiophile tracks)..
but for movies or home theater, having a sub is always netter..

hope this helps..


btw, i used a sansui au-@607extra in the a&b comparison of the 9.1 and 9.2

hi guys im planning a "little" upgrade for my 9.1 that is being driven by my dayton DTA-1 rated at 15watts per channel

im eyeing the 9.3 because of its bigger driver that would go lower but because of my amps limited capacity

should i just go with the 9.2?

has anyone tried driving the 9.3 with dayton DTA-1?

9.3 is too much for your dta.
bring your amp and audition it with 9.2

Audition both options to see which one suits your need.

I'd personally almost always choose the 9.3 over the 9.2. Also check out the Polk M20 and the Infinity P163.

the 9.2 doesn't really go well with low powered amplifiers.  i'd say the 9.2's are a lot more power hungry than the 9.1's.  tried it with my 30wpc harman kardon hk3350. it was ok with the 9.1, but base sounded muddy with the 9.2. just my 2 cents..

hehe, I did try it, I was wondering if other guys tried it too and found a difference, i'm thinking that it may just be a psychological difference.

technically there is a difference, as there is no perfect acoustically transparent cloth. whether or not that difference is significant and noticeable depends on the psycho-acoustic perception of the listener.

re: covering the port, doing so will modify the frequency response, making the woofer behave closer to being in a sealed enclosure as opposed to a ported enclosure. generally it would result to "tighter bass" at the expense of low end extension
