As far away from my shared wall as possible (yes, I know that won't help).


Listen to the Real HT Info Podcast at http://realht.info, or on iTunes.

Also, listen right here on The Home Theater Shack. Just use the web applet on the front page.

I've got no place, but I'll gladly find one (in Rosenut) in another room...

foot's eye view...


That's the only place in this room...wish I could space it between the FR and the display

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


Wow...hmm. It would certainly be a significant upgrade to my existing sub. I would probably corner load it, making sure that it was visible to my guests. About 8 of my current subs could probably fit inside this monster...

As you can see here, I have a PB13 Ultra end table. If I won a second one, it would go on the other side of the couch.

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?




I would place it right where my DIY is now, and place the DIY aside in the last pinch of space in my room...yeah that'd be 2x300w RMS 8in (my towers), plus a 500w RMS DIY 12in, and a 750w RMS PB13-Ultra in a 14x11ftx7ft room

If I were to win my folks would think I am just

Ha as if I ain't already

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I would totally replace the UFW-12 I am currently using in the upstairs system with the PB13-Ultra. The UFW-12 has awesome build quality, but disappointing frequency response below 25Hz even though it's a sealed design that could have rolled off naturally. I've been trying to figure out for months now how I might be able to get a better sub into that system.

I would definitely put it behind the couch hoping to cancel the terrible axial mode in my room, and have a smoother FR

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I would put it right next to my Velodyne and do some listening evaluations...Probably followed shortly thereafter by putting the Velodyne out in the bar area with the 2 channel/videogame rig.

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I ended up buying the PC-Ultra because it was too long of a wait for the PB13-Ultra. I really wanted the PB, but now that I have the PC, I love it. You wouldn't imagine how many people think it's a heater! Then when I throw in Transformers, the last 20 minutes or so of the movie, they know it isn't a Heater!

I currently have the PC-Ultra in the right-front corner of my HT room. If I were to win the PC-Ultra, I'm going to put it on the front-left side or our HT Room to even things out.

Good Luck To All

Going to replace my Infinity PB-10. Got this thing way before I knew better. I will post pics, but don't think many want to see this sub.

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I have a Klipsch RW12d that pales in comparison to the PB13Ultra. I would move the Klipsch Sub to the side and let the PB13Ultra take center stage where it belongs. I would use the PB13Ultra to take care of all LFE and might experiment using the second sub for center or surround channel dedication.

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


If I somehow win (and the earth doesn't stop rotating), I would buy a second one to put in each corner.

One for the left replacing the PB12/Plus2:


And one for the right:

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I would put a new sub behind the large sofa that is on the left.

SVS PB13 Ultra, AR center PSC25, 2 Audio control C131 EQ's
Toshiba HD A2 & Samsung BDP1400 DVD players, Sanyo Z2 projector

Two Channel system: Yamaha RX-V995, Mission 764i towers, & A/D/S MS3u sub
Yamaha KX-393 Tape deck, CDC 805 5 disc CD changer,
LG DV7832NXC DVD player, Motorola HD-PVR,
Sony KP-53HS30 rear projection HDTV, turntable PS-T20

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I would put it in the left rear corner of my theater room. I would have to move one of my two SVS PB12-Plus/2s out of that corner and put it in the left front corner to match the other SVS PB12-Plus/2 in the right front corner. Then I would have to run another dedicated 20amp line so the three subs, 2 Onix Rocket RS1000s(350watt amps each for bass speakers), 1000watt kicker amp, and Outlaw 7700 could all pull enough power to dim the power grid in town.

Re: Where will I put my new PB13-Ultra or PC-Ultra?


I would place it somewhere in my theater room where I can sit back and admire my prize. It would be the nicest speaker I own and I would use it as the foundation to any new system upgrades.
