    svs question: pb1+ vs 20-39pc+ vs 25-32pc+

    I have the PB1+. I had a few emails with Tom V. at SVS about the difference between it and the PC 25 - 31+. They both share the same driver, amplifier, and extension settings. With the PB1+ you get the gorgeous furniture grade finish and the parametric equalizer which can help tame a "hump" in...

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

    I started off with a Polk Audio PSW-350 subwoofer. Then I bought a Hsu STF-2. Last month I purchased a SVS PB1+. I still own all three subs and use them in their dedicated systems. With each upgrade, the "lightbulb" you mention illuminated brighter and brighter. I guess the obsession with...

    Lsi-9's

    I own both the LSi 9's and the 15's. The 9's do respond very favorably to amplification rated for 4 ohms. I have run them with good results on NAD C270, Rotel RB 1070, and B&K ST125.2 amps. You can also look into Outlaw amps. The NAD power amps are nice budget amps and have good sound for the...

    SVS PB1 Plus SUCKS........

    I currently own the SVS PB1+ and the Hsu STF-2. I have a somewhat large listening room at 3,000 ft3. I listen to DVDs at about -15 to -20 off of reference levels. The PB1+ still amazes me in its performance and value. Absolutely wonderful subwoofer for both movies and music listening. The...

    SVS "Mercury Red" vs. Paraidgm Studio "rosenut veneer"

    Alan, I have the Mercury Red PB1+ and the color is a little darker red than the menu selection on the SVS website (where they have all of the finishes lined up next to one another). Send me an email to [email protected] and I'll send you all the up close pics you need of it. Paul

    SVS PB1+ New Owner and 110% Satisfied

    Thanks guys. I've spent most of the morning (holiday for us down here in New Orleans due to Mardi Gras.. but the weather is horrible for parades) rearranging the living room. I have now corner loaded the sub and its like I unleashed a tiger. Totally different FR even though I didn't change a...

    Anyone heard JM Labs speakers?

    I listened to the JM Labs Electra bookshelves a couple of months ago when I was looking for some new speakers for my two channel setup. The amp used was a Rogue 88 tube amplifier and a Cal Audio 15 cd player. The JM Labs were detailed galore and had a huge soundstage and impressive bass for a...

    SVS PB1+ New Owner and 110% Satisfied

    The dimensions are 19" wide X 25" tall (including base plate) X 26" long. Yes, the parametric equalizer will come in handy as I do have a small peak to tame around 35 hz. Definitely a lot of performance and value in this sub. Paul

    SVS PB1+ New Owner and 110% Satisfied

    Well, I don't really post here very often but I felt that credit was due as it is rightfully deserved. I'm the proud new owner of a Mercury Red SVS PB1+. This sub has exceeded my expectations. The quality of the craftmanship in the woodwork and the sound quality is beyond belief at its price...

    Got my Polk Audio LSi9's...a few thoughts.

    Hey PaulBAW, Great Review on the LSi 9's. I've owned a pair myself for about 3 months now. They continued to "open-up" for me after the first month. I'm using a Rotel RSX 1055 receiver and Transparent wire to run my LSi 9's. My other set of speakers are Paradigm Studio 40's V2. I used to...
