| tlt418 needs help Hello, I'm a new member from Quebec City, Canada. I found a lot of very informative and interesting threads on the HTShack about HT equipments, particularly subwoofer's reviews and discussions. I would like to add a subwoofer to my stereo system for CD music only listening. My speakers are two Energy Veritas 2.3i driven by Bryston 4 SST power amp. I like jazz, classical and some poprock musics. I have a large room 30'x14'x8' and I like music playing as loud as in concert hall (I don't know how many maximum decibels for this level, may be 105 db?). I would like to have a well builded and finished one (ideally in piano black) that is not too big. I have budgeted this purchase from $1000 to $1500 maximum. I looked the excellent subwoofer tests made by Ilkka and I compared the results with others reviews like those posted on avsforum.com (Official Craigsub rankings thread) and on http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/maste...ubwoofers.html. I would like to receive recommandations from the community about the best subwoofer to fill my need. Actually, my choice will be among these subwoofers: AV123 MFW-15, SVS PB12-Plus, SVS PB12-NSD, Hsu VTF-3 HO, EPIK Castle. If there is a big quality difference of these in comparing to the SVS13-Ultra, I will also think about this one (though it costs more than $2000 in Canada). As residents of Canada, we must pay very much for the shipping, duties and sales taxes. Thank you very much. PS. Please excuse me for my poor English. | |||

| Re: tlt418 needs help Welcome aboard Tony. I'd bet a post in the sub woofer forum would get you lots of suggestions about what the best sub for you would be, plus the reasons for the suggestions. We have some very knowledgeable sub woofer experts here. Mark | |||

| Re: tlt418 needs help Bienveue au Shack Tony. Je suis aussi dans la région de Québec, plus précisément à Beaumont (près de Lévis). C'est toujours surprenant de rencontrer des gens qui proviennent de la même région sur un forum aussi international ! Je me demandais justement s'il y avait des membres près de chez-moi, et bien j'ai une première réponse ! JP | |||

| Re: tlt418 needs help Bonjour Jean-Pierre, Il me fait plaisir de pouvoir vous contacter via ce forum. On pourrait peut-être s'échanger plus librement en français par courriel si vous le désirez. Il faut préciser que je suis un mélomane mais ne possède pas de connaissance technique très poussée come vous. Mon email est tlt418@hotmail.com. Tony | |||
