I am no professional so take my opinion with a grain of salt but here it goes. I had the BIC America F12 for about 3 weeks and decided that it wasn't powerful enough. I researched and read a lot about different woofers and My choice was between an HSU 15 or the PB12. After some debating I had decided to the PB12 and sent an eMail to SVS, with a few question that I had about the PB12. I had sent the eMail on a Saturday evening and was promptly answered on that following Sunday at around 8 AM. That is amazing customer service and I am very thankful for it. My order went through that Sunday and I received the woofer today. Was a hassle free and fast delivery. The woofer itself is pretty big and sounds incredible. I have tried a few different movies and sounds with this sub and one thing I have definitely noticed is that the bass goes to low that it actually starts vibrating my couch, which I didn't get with my Bic F12. But before I even got to the point of testing the speaker, the newbie me didn't know where to attach the RCA cable I had. My old BIC had a simple LFE connector and was pool proof. The SVS had multiple connections and nothing seemed to make sense to me. I called SVS and Mr. Ed Cullen (I think he's a user here) picked up. I asked him about where to connect my RCA cable to, which he obviously answered, and instead of just ending the conversation there, he asked me which speaker system and reciever combo I had and even further explained to me which way to set the Sub and the crossover points etc. He was VERY helpful and very understanding oh the newbie-me. I can not tell you guys that this Sub is better than Sub A or Sub B, because at the end its about what you like, but if you are looking for a company that stands behind their products and is very knowledgeable, approachable and helpful, give SVS a try.
