Nice choice. I can say that my nsd/2 has never bottomed out. So with the ultra, I'm sure you most definitely won't have that problem anymore. Good luck with your future purchase.

Haha, good try! :D You will get one eventually. That's how I felt before I bought mine. Kept trying to come up with the money for a PB12 Plus/2 but ended up just going with an NSD/2. I was skeptical about buying from there "entry" level line. Well long story short, I am amazed at how well it...

Cool, thanks for the info fellas. I'm sure it is just louder and maybe it's an illusion that it sounded better. I did recalibrate and my I swear the bass sounded different (better/fuller) but who knows maybe I calibrated it a little different this time making it sound better. Thanks for the links!

So I have had my SVS PB12- NSD/2 sub for about 2 years now and it has been amazing. Love it to death. I have it connected from my H/K AVR347 via a 50ft. interconnect coax cable that I got from SVS. The other day I was reading through some HT content somewhere on the net. I saw something about...

The sliding doors are the only windows in the room and they have fabric vertical blinds that block most of, if not all light. All the other openings are actually doorways. So I don't think I have to be to worried about lighting. At least I hope not. ;) Getting some reclining chairs down the...

The sub woofer is HUGE and pretty limited to that corner unfortunately. My tv is rear projection and on a stand so that limits location even more. My current setup in the old house is even more limited and the sub is currently behind my love seat. I hate its location but there wasn't really...

And Option 4 with the surrounds on opposing walls:

Just had another idea pop in my head while slow at work. How about this setup? I guess my main concern is the sub being located next to the seating position like in option #1. I don't think that is a recommended location... right? I've been led to beleive it is best to locate the sub in line...

Yes, this will pretty much be the main hang out spot (watching TV, movies, listening to music, playing video games and ect...). NOT a dedicated theater by any means. I just want to make the best of it for now until I do some major reconstructing. You have a very good point. You opinion is much...

Hello, I just purchased a new home and I'm looking for some opinons and/or recommendations for my 5.1 setup in the den. This is of course until I knock down the wall between the formal living room and den to create a good sized "great" room (in a year or so). Anyways, here are some quick (non...

Hey, I actually just went through this same debate a few months ago. I listened to both sets at best buy. They had them set up terribly, go figure...lol. Anyways, the best buy employees recommended the klipsch simply because they cost more. When I asked why, the simply said, "ummm, well they...

Look into the Venue Series from JBL. They are pretty good for the price. I have the "Stages" (soon to be studios or stadiums), "Balconys" and the "Voice" matched with my SVS PB12-NSD/2 and it sounds impressive. They are powered by my H/K AVR-247. I was honestly shocked at how well the Venue...

Hello, I am looking to buy an HK AVR 225 or preferably a 325 for around $300. I am wanting to upgrade my current RCA receiver as recommended by some people on here a while ago in this thread. So if anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it! Or if anyone knows where I can...

Mike, I am starting to understand it a little better now. So all I have to do is get all the parts and make the connections like shown here: Then just take away the BFD.... right? I have a problem though! I am not using a powered sub. My receiver has a built in pre amp. I think this is why...
