    iFi Zen Blue v2 vs Apple TV 4K

    Why does music played through the iFi Zen Blue v2 sound better than through the Apple TV 4K, to me? Signal Chain: Samsung Galaxy S21 (wifi on & bluetooth connected to Zen) > Zen Blue v2 ( stock power adapter) > cheap optical cable > Denon x6700h (Stereo Direct Mode) > Pre-outs > SVS RCA...

    The Official "What Speakers or Subwoofer Should I Buy" Assistance Thread

    Well.... I've been tweaking, testing subwoofer placement, downloaded MultiEQ, ran single SB4000, single PB3000, single PB3000 sealed mode, duals with SB4000/PB3000 sealed mode, ordered a UMIK-1 USB mic for REW tuning, yada, yada, yada...... A pair of Prime Pinnacles will be here on Friday to...

    I'm completely new at this so please excuse my ignorance. New to higher end audio gear, not to music. I've never owned an AVR or room corrected anything before so... yeah, that's why I'm here. :) The room I'm testing in is not the room where they will end up. I'm building a built-in...

    Digging deeper into these SVS subs..... Would a pair of PB-3000s compare to a pair of SB-16s when it comes to output, room filling sound, and deep bass? Room size: 20'×30' I really love the clarity of the SB-4000 but I really have to crank it up match the output level of the PB-3000...

    You are 100% spot on. I really enjoyed the pb-3000 for its visceral impact and heart pounding capabilities. It really fills the space and your soul. Can't imagine 2 of these in my room. On the other hand, the sb-4000 is on a completely different level. The bass is sweeter, clearer, controlled...

    @JohnRice Well, pulled the trigger on an SB-4000 to compare it to my PB-3000 before i decide which one to keep for duals. Oh what fun.... :)

    I ended up going with a PB-3000. The base is insane on base heavy tracks. After fixing all the room rattles it has been complete bliss the past few days testing out this ported sub in my multi-use living room with base heavy tracks. (I'm not a basehead.... at least I don't think I am......) The...

    Holy Crap! The size difference between the PB-3000 and SB-3000 is massive! I really don't want two giant boxes in my room, lol. Especially since they will be sitting in my living room down stairs. I'm really going to have to revisit the room design. Integrating all of this audio stuff and...

    Dual PB-3000 are at the top of my list. I am curious about the SB line but SVS was adamant about going with ported subs for movie watching. Plus, you can seal up the ports and make it a sealed enclosure. Would be interested to experiment with that. Room correction is very important to me...

    Well, looks like I can no longer edit my older post so here we go. After a little research, I'm considering going with two subs. I'm currently testing out my old PC desktop system (Klipsch R-10W sub, R-15Pm monitors on stands) in my living room and can't seem to get the base dialed in. Too...

    Hello, New here. I'm looking to build my first home theater/music listening system. I'm considering SVS Ultras with an SVS sub or a pair of KLH Model 5's with a sub. I prefer American products when possible but it's not a hard rule. What are you looking for (Speakers, Subwoofer or Both)...
