    Miami Vice Officially Announced! (now w/Feb. date)

    Miami Vice Movie I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that Universal is currently in the pre-production phase of a Miami Vice movie starring Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx as Crockett and Tubbs! Release date is tentatively July 28, 2006 It'll be shot (not surprisingly) in Miami and...

    Do I really need an Ultra? What about Plus or ISD?

    Jesse: I'm a new to posting here as well, though I've been online participating in forums for years and years now. The one bit of constructive advice I can give you is that "researching" doesn't always have to mean asking the same (or nearly the same) question over and over and over until some...

    I'm amazed at how many bass freaks are out there

    Well, FWIW, I actually do remember watching "Die Another Day" at the local Metreon and thinking just that when I walked out. (BTW, don't take this as my saying the movie itself was all that great) :)

    Difference Between Avia and DVE - Subwoofer Calibration

    Edward: I don't understand why you're saying that one should calibrate their sub to 82dB when using Avia while the other "regular" channels should be done to 85dB? (My initial guess was that you were including a correction for a SPL meter's inherent error, but you've since stated above that 82dB...

    DOH! I did, of course, mean CUBIC feet.

    New SVS owner wondering just how far he can push it...

    Another Newbie's Follow-On: Not intereted in annoying the neighbors, cracking sheetrock or losing my hearing, but I'm also curious as to how far I could push my sub without going so far as to bottom it out and damage my PC-Ultra. Related side question: My PC-Ultra (basically a 20-39 on...

    Corrections for a non-RS SPL meter?

    Over the past few days I've been slowly calibrating, tweaking and just plain playing around with my new SVS PC-Ultra. My question is this: Are the correction factors for the Radio Shack unit applicable to other brands' models, or should I go by the values that I'm getting on my SPL meter...

    PB1-Plus and PB2-Ultra

    Ron, You posted above that the current working dimensions for the PB1-Plus is: 25”D x 19”W x 24”H The SVS website says the PB2-Plus' dimensions are 28"D x 18"W x 25" H Unless one of the specs is wrong , doesn't this mean that , in practical terms, the PB2-Plus is only really larger that...

    PB1-Plus and PB2-Ultra

    Hi Brad, I think you're right. If you look at the picture of the prototype PB1-Plus featured on SVS's website and compares it to the one for the PB1-ISD, you can see that the former is noticably taller in shape to accomodate the triple 3" ports. My guesstimate is that the PB1-Plus is going...

    Anyone cranked up the SVS animation just for kicks?

    Aren't you supposed to hook your computer up to your B4 and play that demo (at reference levels)? :D

    Svs Pb2-isd

    Ron, Thanks for elaborating on the differences and pros/cons of the two models. I don't feel quite as bad now about (eventually) spending a bit more than the price of the PB2-ISD. Here's a weird thing I just noticed while on the SVS website: The PB2-ISD is currently lists a CONUS shipping...

    Svs Pb2-isd

    What do you folks think about the PB2-ISD compared to the upcoming PB1-Plus? I ask because it seems the latter has now lost its bang-for-buck value/niche in the SVS box sub line. The PB2-ISD has 100 watts more power, presumably goes lower and louder, also has tuning ports AND costs at least $100...

    Paradigm Factory Delay

    Well, I read a while back that Paradigm has been working on getting out their Reference Signature series out this year. Maybe this has been tying up a lot of their resources. Anyone know if the new S2, S4 and S6 speakers (at $2k, $4k and $6k respectively) are going to replace the current...
