Re: SVS PB12-Plus vs PB12-Plus/2


DAP, you got similar case as mine.
have never heard of SVS nor HSU in 3 yrs ago. :holycow: only knew famous brands like Velo, MK, SF... but they are out of budget a lot! then searched forums for advices, they told me either SVS or HSU should be a better choice than those brands. studied more of both and pulled fire to SVS b/c it's made in USA while HSU is made in CN . and SVS response is much quicker than HSU's. thou I am a TWnese, still believe US made is superior to CN made!

Ron of SVS always gives me very good reply when I have a question! he recommends ISD2 over other model [forgot if it's 16-46PCi?]. dual drivers should be better. just like now Intel Core 2 Dual takes over single CPU. anyway, I am very happy for such great sub to rock my home!

BTW, today is Pig New Year, wish everyone enjoys it

Anyway, my question is, what sub to buy? Up until last week I have never heard of SVS or Hsu and was planning on a Velodyne.

Now after reading up on SVS and Hsu I am leaning towards the SVS PB12-Plus or the PB12-Plus/2.

Based on all the reviews and the comments on the internet, I walked away thinking, "I really want the PB12-Plus/2, but it is probably overkill for my system and the PB12-Plus woulld do fine. But, since I will likely not be upgrading for at least 5 years, an extra $300.00 to get the second driver seems like a small price to pay for what is, from my impressions, the last sub I will ever have to buy." I want no doubt that one is "there, in the movie".

I would certainly appreciate anyone's opinion and particularly if Tom V. would make a recommendation based on my situation I would be most indebted.

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah (belated) and Happy New Year!
