You may try to consider the 20-39 Plus with the new drivers in it, if your budget does allow for it. And you want to add another one later on. ;) Also, the "black sock" finish of the cylinders could be exchanged against a lighter color, which is not that prominent in your room. That option is...
Gene, SVS offers two kind of "feet" for their Subs. One is a rather flat & rather hard one, which is good for sliding and the position finding period. Once they are located, you should use the 3M made rubber feets, which are supplied in a plastic bag. They are fitted beside the sliding feet...
I would go for a second PC-Ultra. You will have a better bass distribution then (assuming you have enough space to place one more) and you have a "stereo" look. At least, I like the dual look, which fits to the two front speakers.
May I ask why can't you keep the back speakers? Just due to missing space? I would think an HT setup w/o the back speakers will lose a lot of its attraction.
Hi Loreni, a friend of mine in Germany has made the comparison and went for the PB12-ISD/2 at first, then changed to the PB12-Plus to get the Cherry finish. Both Subs perfomed better than the Dynaudio 500 and at a cheaper price tag too. If you want to contact him for more questions...
Hi Norris, SVS Subs are coming with two kind of feets. A flat one (prefixed) which are fine for placing the sub as they allow moving the sub around. After you have found the right place, you have to add the four sticky round rubber feets (3M made), which comes in a plastik bag. Once you...
@ Himanshu_S Yeah, that's pretty close to get the gist ;) Ron mentioned the distributor would just cover Germany, however, the possibility to cover the german speaking area was discussed too. We will have to wait until the final contracts have been signed.
Bonjour Juan, nous prendrons l'entretenir la Suisse du distributeur basé par Allemagne. Nous avons déjà des clients près de Bienne et à Bâle. Salu, Axel
@ Juan C Hi Juan, if you need some help you can always contact me, as I am trying to help Ron on his start in Germany and the german speaking countries around it. You can find me within the www.HiFi-Forum.de Look for the Subwoofer section under Heimkino/Surround, and you will find...
Hi Vince, I had the M&K THX 350 Sub at my place and then bought the SVS PB12-Plus. The Plus gave me the same amount of "shake" for half the price, which the M&K would have cost me. I am very happy with the Plus, and have bought a second one now.
Hi Louis, I guess IB stands for "Infinite Baffle", one way of pressing bass waves into the room if you like to dig holes into the house. Having myself an "open house" situation with 10.044 cf space (the living room is open to kitchen and first floor galeria), I can tell from a quite nice...
David, talking about pure speaker surface, my two PB12-Plus do have the same sqcm as on ML Decent. However, due to the cabinet size and the SVS drivers, I think I have a much greater headroom. Also the power compares to a total 2400 Watt Peak towards 800 at the Decent. So I think, we...
Hi David, believe me, before you can break this unit you have to try hard. Harder than you would do, because you don't want to hurt that baby. Neither music nor movie sound are pure sinewaves, it will become more likely your parents kick you out of their house due to the loudness than...
Hi Folks, jsut received my Denon 2910 yesterday. Look & Feel is really good. Even my treasured DVD 1600 looks "plastic" against it. However, I've already seen the stuttering effect on the second DVD I put in. I'll have a look into this for sure. The main problem at the moment is the...
Hi Cam, in my Denon 2910's Manual it's saying I need to set the HDMI to "2-Channel" Audio Mode. Then, the analog 5.1 Audio connection to the receiver is kept alive.
Hi Ron, Tom, I read about the six rubber feet for the PB10's cabinet. Good choice! That's one of the VERY few shortcomings of the PB1+ design. When I had to position them, I added the rubber feets provided, but it was not possible to move the cabinet an inch after that, as they suck...
Let me think, Hmmm, possibly twice ? ;) By the way Folks, due to your comments, I upgraded my TV to a Plasma in the meanwhile. I hope, you appreciate this :) Cheers, Ax
Hi Tony, have a look into my Setup. I went for two PB1-Plus Subs to get en even Bass distribution on my listening position. I couldn't be happier and was never in a position to drive these beasts to their limits yet, although I tried hard :)...
Hi all, I also set my two Pb1+'ses with one Plug fitted to 20Hz. With very good results so far. I have a tiled floor in my living room. That's why I NEED the rubber feet. One unit came with normal sliders already fitted (a demo unit?) and this one tend to move around on heavy bass...
Hi Daniel, I own a house with a rather large living room. Very nice architecture, but a nightmare for a HT system. The living room as such is not that big (25x16 ft = 400 sq-ft). But it is 18 ft high, has openings to 3 sides and a gallery in the open up first floor. If I add up all open...
I went for two PB1-Plus units and I am very pleased with the results. It depends on your room size & placement options, whether one or two (or even more) Subs are advisable.
Seth--L & Drew_W, thank for the responses. Yep, maybe I am too much pleased with all the good stuff I got via the DVD Audio records I bought lately. Maybe the recording is a little TOO close to reality :) I've set the volume to 0db on my AV-Controller for the "MAGIC!". The Controller...
Hi, Seth--L & Drew_W, after reading your posts , I bought the "MAGIC!" CD and was very disappointed. If I play it at a volume level, where the noise is low, the organ sounds as if it would play in a church next door, and when I drive the organ loud enough , the room noise is that loud that...
Hi Shane, as I have my experience with two PB1+, I would go for the dual Sub solution. I have mine placed one on each side of the couch, and the bass centers perfectly at the listening position. For Movies the dream setup :D Ax
Hi to All, now it's time to conclude on the SVS Setup. I connected and calibrated the AV Controller and set all Speakers up, one by one, measured them through and found the best sound so far ever in this room. The corner loaded Sub is about 10 dB louder than the one to the left of the...
Hi Jason, I had various Sub's at my house for testing from smaller ones up to M&K 350 THX before I bought two SVS PB1+. Whenever I got the new Sub, I expected to find this "Disco" like Boooom sound when playing Pop Music tracks. Unfortunately, none of the Sub's did ever do this, just...
Hi Kevin, this seems to be the Black Couch & Black SVS times... :) Have a look at my setup: 2 x PB1+ Looks familiar to you, doesn't it ? I can only recommend to have two Subs if you are going to keep yours beside the couch. I found it very annoying over time to feel the rumble just...
Hi Brandon, I tried a MX 350 THX over a weekend session to ensure myself that I need a high power Sub. I was not too much satiesfied, as it did not give me the ecxpected edge over my little Yamaha Sub when comparing the prices from 500 EUR (Yamaha) to 2400 EUR (M&K). The M&K did have much...
