I also have the capsule speaker that you mentioned. Shannon told me that you were having good results with it so I bought it to use with the Develop An Aura Of Sexiness sub.
What I found was, when I play that ultrasonic sub on that small speaker I can actually hear high pitched sounds and cracking noises. Is this the same for you?
As you said, it does meet the required frequency response of 20khz so this shouldn't be happening (I'm also playing the ultrasonic from my ipod). Thats why I'm reluctant to start using the speakers with the Alpha sub because maybe there is something wrong with the one I received.
Where in the UK are you from by the way? I'm down in London.
I can hear high pitched sounds - along with the occasional little crackle - on any speaker if the volume is high enough. If you play a song through the little speaker with your ipod at full volume, you realise it's very loud. As the speaker doesn't have a volume knob, I control the volume using my ipod. I set it at less than half of full volume and any high pitched noise is unnoticeable then unless you hold it to your ear.
I only use the XQISIT speaker when I'm not at home, otherwise I use my stereo - which is two large speakers instead of the one small one. The XQISIT is really good for sub use when not at home though.
I live about half an hour away from Manchester. I've never actually been to London, which is a bit embarrassing really lol considering it's the capital. It's only my to do list this summer.
