 Why are you not considering SVS or HSU anymore? The SVS PB12NSD should fit the bill nicely. |
Oh I am, just trying to keep the options open (still)
I was considering the PB10NSD, but saw here that the points were little low, then the PB12NSD was only 3-points higher. I think a 12" is the lowest I will consider.
Dang- I just wish I can hear them before a buy. I would not mind a demo, but shipping it pretty pricey on subs if I don't want it

Epic Valor
Listening results: The Valor is a subwoofer which will be the answer to many budget audiophile's dreams. It is an exceptional musical performer from about 18 Hz and up, with a very agile presentation of bass at all times. In our smaller basement theater, using a pretty good high end set up, it amazed listeners in its presentation of the Steely Dan 2AN disc, and also with its slam for HT. It is not an SPL monster like the Castle, but in the right room, it is magic.
Measured Results: 20 Hz... 99 dB ... 20-63 Hz average: 109 dB

SVS PB-12 Ultra
Listening results: A terrific subwoofer considering its 2002 design. It remained competitive in the $1200 - $1500 arena until 2007, when it was replaced by the PB13-Ultra. The "old" Ultra was at one time a standard bearer for performance, and remains a solid mid pack subwoofer today.
Measured results: 20 Hz ... 102 dB ... 20-63 Hz average: 109 dB

It seems that the PB12 ULTRA is a mighty sub... but the $$$$$$$
------------> I don't know but by specs (of course room makes all the difference) that Valor is no push over, even compared to the PB12 Ultra.
----> but, then again, it's for HT and not music
