I realize the bigger subs have a higher volume and output that the smaller ones but if you were watching a movie at around 85-90dB, would a SVS PB-2000 feel and sound the same as a PB-16 Ultra?
My room measures approx 2500ft3 and I just purchased a pair of PB-2000 Pro's which sound fantastic but I can't help to wonder if a pair of 3000s would give me more 'chest thumping impact' at the same listening level. I'm guessing the PB-Ultra 16's might but my room size won't allow me to go that large. After calibration and setup, the Denon receiver is set at approx. 70% with the subs set at -15 on the app for a comfortable listening level during movies, anything louder and my house feels like it's falling apart. The part in Aquaman when he goes to get the trident scared the crap out of me but had me smiling from ear to ear at the same time.
As we all know, bass is addictive but would it be a waste of money to get bigger subs if I'm not going to be at full volume on any of them?
