    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    I need to make an ISO file of the matching tones. That would encourage more people to do this. It was extremely eye opening for me. It was also nice to see a graphical representation of what I was hearing. That peak in the response made my theater sound like your average 16 year old's car stereo...

    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    I created my own test disc with sine waves matching the frequencies on the PEQ spreadsheet ( http://www.pvconsultants.com/audio/eq/peq.htm ). When I measured my room, I had an inductance peak of 14db at 54hz that really impacted my MCACC auto calibration. I used the parametric EQ in the...

    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    Yes. That works just fine. Since the work load is divided, the drivers don't need as much excursion. Also, Chad (the owner) has been in the sub business for quite a long time. These are quality drivers even if they aren't flashy. Most of his drivers are sourced from Fi Car Audio. Fi's owner...

    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    You guys make me laugh. Here's the largest sub I've ever read about that wasn't built as part of the room. It was built using the 78 pound Resonant Engineering XXX 18" driver.

    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    If you local dealer is getting them, he isn't buying directly from Paradigm. He is buying from a distributor who is also marking up the price. Factor in a much larger company with more overhead and tons more advertising and the fixed costs keep going up. SVS is factory direct. When you order...

    Pardigm Sub 12 VS Paradigm Seismic 110 VS HSU VTF-2 MK 3 VS SVS 12NSD

    Don't assume anything. The specs are almost non-existent on the Paradigm site. The only thing I could find was that it would play down to 16hz. Is that the -3db or the -10db point? How was that measured? Yes, the finish of the cabinet looks great but I think that is the high point for this...
