Addicted to Bass.

Figure 1:  The subwoofer of the JVC Sophisti SP-NXF7.

This JVC subwoofer of mine is an absolute beast!  Even on its lowest setting, -12, it literally shakes the walls.

Figure 2:  The effect that this subwoofer has on the crockery!  I sketched this very quickly with pencils and Oil Pastels.

I was watching a programme on UTV¹ a year or two ago, a programme that commemorated the Irish winners of the Eurovision Song Contest.  Dana, who won the contest in 1970, was performing.

Figure 3:  Dana, who won the Eurovision Song Contest, in Amsterdam, with All Kinds of Everything, is, unlike Meghan Trainor, not generally considered to be “all about da bass.”

I had the T.V. sound channeled into the optical auxiliary input of my JVC sound system.

Now Mrs Rosemary Scallon is not an artiste renowned for her hard-hitting bass beats.  Even so, my sub-woofer picked up a bass frequency and amplified it to such an extent that the walls began to shake.  The cacophony became so violent and unbearable, that I had to switch the sound-system off, and switch back to the sound of the T.V. speakers.
