Default Reports Of Big Daddy's Demise are Greatly Exaggerated: He is alive and well.

I have been extremely busy. I was away for a while. I also had multiple problems in the past few weeks that I had to resolve. It appears that most of them are taken care of and Big Daddy will be ready to kick a$$ again in a couple of days.

Thank you all for your concern. It is nice to be missed.

Thanks for letting us know your ok.
Your knowledge about everything subwoofers, to greatly appreciated by everyone on this forum.

With that being said, I do have one question.
Please explain to us again, why you favor subwoofers with 12" or 15" drivers, over subs with 18" drivers.
I know it has something to do with "bass slam."

Nice to see you back Frank! I thought for a while there you got stuck underneath a pile of tumbling subs.

I hate to put words in Big Daddy mouth but the general consensus is 12" and 15" drivers usually have faster response times than 18" drivers.
