Smile WOW do those new PC-Ultras sound great.


Got them this week, broke them in maybe 30 hours with pinknoise, switched and plugged them to 15Hz, adjusted the PEQs* with a third-octave RTA, phased them correctly with the main speakers, and WOW!!!!

I thought and still think the 10" Bob Carver Dominators sound better than they have a right to for the money, but the PC-Us are definitely a step-and-a-half up. The LOW-frequency bass from, for instance, 'U-571', 'Master and Commander...', and 'Black Hawk Down' has a solidity...a feeling...that was missing before. I also played them with stereo sources and they sound quite well defined in the mid- and upper-bass octaves.

I'm thrilled.

* One to the primary frequency of c. 30Hz and the other to the secondary peak of c. 50Hz.

Great news Jeff, I take it you purchased 2 units. I sure love my pair. For interest, where did you place your subs and have you tried more than one position?
