Radio Man,

Try to limit what you put through a shortwave radio receiver, most
receivers in that catagory are just classified as seperate tuners, if I had a
communications receiver like yours I would use a seperate amplifier
with equalizer to customize your audio settings. An equalizer
works to filter out certian non desired audio frequencies to
suit your listening tastes. Please use your communications
receiver like a seperate tuner, cause shortwave receivers have
woefully poor quality audio amps, which are only good for small "tiny"
communication " wide range " speakers, like background "muzak" speakers


Most speakers like yours have a cross over inside, and need a amp
to control whats being put through them.

What I wish that communication receiver builders do, is make a
communications seperate amplifier with bass and treble controls with also DSP
filters for large stereo speakers. Also MFJ makes a speech
enhancer that you can connect between your tuner to your seperate
amplifier, and if you want add a equalizer. Capacitors are good
for also but you will need the right non polarized axial lead
capacitor, but they are only good only for crossover designs.

Ok, Here are your sources for your good audio equipment

I recently connected an 8" speaker with a 2" tweeter in
a baffle to my receiver. The audio is much improved
except there is too much bass. Is there a practical fix
for this?

My Drake R8B has no problem driving a 10'' speaker to room filling
volume.

I'd suggest the Cambridge PC Works for your listening enjoyment if
your radio lacks audio authority.

They have a seperate subwoofer (with level control) that can be
located under your desk and a wired remote volume control.
