Had no choice and between the box (not a good idea, though we have it baffled) and placing the center about 2 feet over the TV, the seating positions required it to...

    Hi...Cannot contrast the SVS subs with HSU. But can tell you that I listened to Velodyne and several others in my room before deciding upon the VTF-3. First off I must say I am a bass person:) Ended up with two VTF-3's. I have a huge room and love bass. My better half was perfectly happy with...
