Simon, thanks for taking time to take pics and share them with your fellow HTF geek buddies. ;)

I thought my pair of 20-39CS+'s took up a lot of room.....hah.

No problems guys. Yeah it's pretty big I wasn't prepared for how big until I moved it into the lounge room. John your setup looks great I like the equipment rack. In the dark your setup would look like the inside of a plane cockpit very nice. Thanks to all for your comments much appreciated.:emoji_thumbsup:

Hey Tom how could I forget you your pictures kept me going when waiting for mine to be delivered. You were right it's everything you said it would be and more.No longer do I have to worry about the Sub not handling the deep bass in some dvds now. I watched T3 and my jaw hit the floor just effortless clear,deep bass.I've had 3 full days of playing and I'm still amazed at how powerful this beast is.I don't think I will ever know it's true potential as my room needs to be twice as big to really open it up. I can't see how it could sound better than it does now. To think I was considering the Crown 2 amp absolutly no reason the K1 is powerful enough. Thanks for your help as well.The invasion of the B4+ has begun.
Check my earlier posts for my pictures Earnest Yee made it easier for everyone. So here they are.

With the Crown amp the Rotel 1050 is no longer on the top of it I was just eager to have it setup. The crown does get very hot after say 2 hours of use does happen with yours? I'm sure it's normal as they said it doesn't have a fan. Enjoy the pictures

Way to go Simon. Thanks for the pictures. I think that other "Wow" factor is that you had it shipped all the way to Australia in the first place.

BTW, how does the bass in Blade Runner sound?

No kidding, Parker. The shipping and import charges cost nearly as much as one of the 2 PB2+ i'm importing over here. :)

Great pictures, Simon. It would be nice to have one of these bad boys in my home. :emoji_thumbsup:

The B4+ finish is a bit different from the pebbled look:) I got mine to please my familys eyes, while little did they know it may not please the heart when I crank it up:) I fiddled around with the glass tap in nemo and at 12 under ref (75 cal, 78 ..so 3 hot on svs) I shook the heck outta my 4500 CF room...serious unexpected bass in it:) Ever crack your knuckles under water and notice how loud it is? I think that is the feeling they want to bring to us in that scene...a girl tapping, but IN the aquarium its about 10 times louder.

Hey guys thanks for you comments. Haven't tried Bladerunner as it's only in Dobly Pro-Logic not 5.1 (spoilt by 5.1). The finish is a Dark black so I guess the wood grain doesn't show up as much as the lighter colours that have been posted before. I thought the same thing when it arrived but thats the way I wanted it didn't want it to draw attention to itself. Anyway I think the size of it does that does that anyway:) . As with the cost of getting into this country,I was just hanging to know just how good it was after reading so many post I coudn't resist. Now I know why I went through with it simply amazing. Nick let us know when you get your Pb2+.

Umm I hope she was deaf before well I guess it's too late now.

I've just ordered Finding Nemo Tom I'm looking forward to that scene. Have you tried T3 that was incredible very powerful bass especially at the start and the fight scene B/W the two terminators. Jurrasic Park 3 my god that was loud when the 2 dinos fight. I'm so happy.

Great review Simon and this has been a fun story to follow. Thanks for taking the time on the pics also. (Great Job)

I'm afraid this Thread has pushed me over the edge??? I had planned on picking up one more 25-31CS+ to make the total four and possibly just a little more output than a B4+. Now I find myself measuring up my favorite corner and contemplating selling the whole works (maybe keep one ;))and going with the B4+ in the sedona red stain option. It would double as a very nice corner table in the corner I'm thinking of also. Just when I thought I had it all figured out!

Just one more sub.

Simon...Jurassic park kicks too:) I need that T3 dvd...gonna pick it up soon. :)

Steve...I did the same thing you did but stopped at 1, and bit the bullet. I know the B4+ equal is roughly 3 Ultras...but in your case, the B4+ is workable to troll a bit lower:) When you hear that glass tap, you'll be pleasantly suprised...DON'T tell anyone its coming up:) muhahaha...same with the bird into the window..found that one to throw people back in their seat:) tom

The first time the bird hit the window or the glass tap for that matter I was not prepared at all. WHOPPP!!! I think I was running in the 20 hz tune. I have been doing some experimenting in the 16 hz tune lately though to. RELOADED is great in the 16 hz tune option.

When I spoke to Tom V he thought the four 25-31CS+'s should have a db or two advantage considering double port and close to double enclosure volume. I would be willing to put this advantage to the side though considering the looks of the B4+ to my eyes and the option of placing it in the most effective corner which I can not do with my current cylinders (WAF). I think it would be a good idea to pull the table for testing purposes and see if three are manageable. I know dual are but could be a little to much horsepower with three or four so close to seating??
