Edward, thanks for clearing it up, for me;) :emoji_thumbsup:

Edwar,I am, of course being overly cautious, and have found from Tom Vonhandel that there will be sacrifices between the various different models,but whether the subwoofer looses clean output below and above it's tuning point with the respective models is still basically the same point in...

Edward, i agree with you, but it is still a bit worrying that so much effort must be taken to simply capture the whole frequency spectrum...okay up to a point...lets say to 8hz.Again what i said was not little but VERY impractible, it was the only way that i thought it would be achieved as for...

Mark, i'm suprised that the phantam menace actually extends down to that subsonic range(10hz), previously i thought 17-20hz was the range that the sequence extended to, but GOD i'm a bit worried now.I'm sure Brain's B4 supersub, can give good output in 8-14hz range as well, assuming that your...

Brian, you are one HELLUVA lucky man!,please describe the feeling that you got when using this weapon.Have you done any benchmark tests with it yet?

Edward, what I mean't to say, was that each svs subwoofer would consentrate on their respective frequencies, ie. not letting them play frequencies below their optimum range, so as to allow maximum spl.My room is roughly 15 by 15 feet long with 1 openings into kitchen.What I said was a little...

Has anyone played the Phantom Menace opening scene at full reference ie121db or Toy story 2 at reference, so far i haven't heard of anyone playing these scenes at this level, having smily faces, just flattened woofers.Although it is a strict requirment as both sequences do contain sub-sonic...

But isn't it far more complex to build towers or bookshelf speakers as the cabinet would be more critical to influening the higher frequencies and optimizing the mid-bass frequencies?

I know that this is off the main topic, but i am just wondering about being safe or immune from bottoming, as I have heard people that have bottomed their SVS, even ultras on the Phantam Menace opening,which kind of scares the HELL out of me.I think there is sub14-16hz content in this sequence...

I am very interested in learning the ways of DIY, and only have knowledge(somewhat) of room acoustics and info regarding driver uniformity and sound acoustics and I would like extensive knowledge based in this field, as i could then NO DOUBT build a sub to beats everyones ass.....of course that...

I'm glad that the 20-39 will whip the paradigms rear ports, and as a matter of interest, how much does it cost, and how long would it take to contruct a sub that would produce 125db at the listening position in the 16hz and up range?I know of only two commercial sub that(speculation) can achieve...

John, it's Vaughan here and not my stupid brother, he won't be that stupid to try meddle with my threads again, i did try to be the most sensible in trying to get my explanation across(In that one thread), just hope that I indeed got my thoughts across, as trolls lurking on this site is childish...

Great to hear, and what a about..say a PW-2500(hope i spelt it right),just because i live in South Africa and the exchange rate is, well almost impossible and the sub ahead of the PW-2200 is about R1500(or about $190).Would you be able to compare output wise?

Dustin, i am a bit jealous of your knowledge of DIY,as you can practically build subs to outgun any commercial sub, even the B4 supersub(SVS), and i agree with the above mentioned sub, except for one sub that you never mentioned,the frikkin KRELL MASTER REFERENCE, should be called Krell Master...

Michael, If you think that's bad, my friend bought a warfdale sub because as it was the cheapest sub there was, little did he know that it had a +-3db of 50 herz with a 6" driver,BOOM,BOOM,BOOM,MYYYYY GODDDD.That was pretty bad.

Hi guys These days, in the subwoofer market it is quite hard to get a good price/performance ratio with certain exceptions(SVS,Adire,Hsu come to mind) and there are mid-woofers, as they should be called,ARE A DIME A DOZEN multiplying like bacteria, but there are the heavy weights concerning...

Hi Guys I really need advice as to the better performer for the money,especially the output, and the subwoofers in question are the Paradigm pw-2200 and SVS 20-39 pci.Both I know are great subwoofers, but I need to know which have more output/extension? I am still deciding whether buying...

I'm just wondering if there is an Avia or Video essentials Test disk for Pal users.I am from South Africa and currently have only seen NTSC versions or doesn't this matter.I am not sure as to whether they will work on Pal systems especially calibrating monitors like projectors or direct view...

In my opinion, the Krell Master Reference and the Wilson XS are probably the most powerful consumer subwoofers that are available.Talking about the Krell, 2 15" inch drivers with 2,6 kilowatts of power and the Wilson Xs with 2 18" inch drivers with up to 1600 watts of peak power contained in a 8...

Mark, If this is correct then one additional subwoofer irrespective of being identicle will provide 3 db of maximum sound pressure if put in one corner and upto 6 db if put side by side or on top of the first subwoofer.A third subwoofer should give 3 db in the other corner and a fourth(Heaven...

Ron, I respect YOUR opinion, but simply saying this is better or not simply doensn't prove anything.All that I need is some further understanding from you or anyone else as to why you or they choose HTPC over progressive dvd player.Please can you give me some facts and reasons regarding your...

Vince, can a reasonably cheap speaker system be capable of reference level? Do not count distorion in as there will NO DOUBT be a heck of distorion, I belief.But can a cheap system at least attain reference level, for better or worse.Doesn't amplifier power come into play here, and speaker...

Mark I live in Cape Town.

Please anyone? Does the matrix have any deep bass at the end of the movie when Neo fights Agent Smith, and is there any deep or subsonic bass when Neo kicks Agent Smith when he becomes The One.(I think chapter 36.)I really like chapter 36 because Neo is just SOOO godlike in his fighting.Please...

Sorry if some read my other post regarding the Servo 15(I had a servo 15 for three years now prior to getting the svs ultra package).I was convinced to buy a duel package for even more power.I am considering using the servo for ultimate low frequencies.Just think, I will have one servo 15 and...

I must say that after watching the matrix last night on a 100 inch screen it is just amazing.Now talking about the matrix and the characters.Everyone portrays superhuman characteristics like the agents and morpheos.Neo before he was the ONe was quite powerful, and for the most part fended of...

I must say that I find it hard to believe given the quality products from toshiba and panasonic progressive scan players can be inferiour in quality to cheap computer components.My brother has a data projector and is using a Pc to watch dvds.Using the vga input, I was impressed with overall...

Dustin , my subwoofer is corner loaded and my rooms overall dimensions are very small about 6m by 6m.I will be moving soon as of 10 January.Now the servo 15 cannot and will not produce extremely high spl at say 10 HERZ.But in my room I could get 113db at 20hz(Keep in mind that spl meter is...

I just wanted to know if there is any deep bass(sub 20hz or lower) when neo kicks agent smith when he discovers that he is the one.I think it is chapter 34.Please anyone ??

Lou , I have mission m73 fronts, m72 for surrounds, m7c center and a harman kardon avr400 reciever. My subwoofer is a rel q100e. I use small speakers all round. 80 hrZ crossover, but I still get no bass that i can feel, at least no with this movie
