Hello everybody,
I have been reading all about SVS subwoofers and how great they are but I need help from you. I am pretty sure I will get the 20-39 PCi model.
Here is my problem: I currently have the Velodyne CHT-120 (front) and the CHT-80 (rear) but when I order my SVS sub should I sell my front/rear subs? Or should I keep the 120 and put that in the rear? Sell the CHT-80 for $100 to my friend?
Does the cheaper SVS Art 351 Equalizer help that much? How do you hook that thing up to your system?
Room size? Currently my room is 24' long x 12' wide x 8 ft high. This will be later change because all the gear will into my finished basement. This will be 25'x 15'x 7'.
My system is
front speakers: Polk RT800's (bi-amped)
center: CS400 (bi-wired and speaker wire is sent to amp)
rear: RT55's (hooked up to receiver)
rear center: RT35's (hooked up to receiver)
Everything is set to small; speaker lines from receiver to rear speakers (RT55's) are sent through the Velodyne CHT-80 sub, then the speaker lines sent to RT55's.
-Denon 3801 receiver
-Harmon Kardan 2.1 (5 channel amp...100 watts...high current)
-Pioneer DV-525 DVD player (will upgrade when there will be a digital connection (not 5 analog interconnects..too many damn interconnects) for SACD and DVD-Audio.))
-Audioquest interconnects and speaker wire.
-36" TV that is VE calibrated (will be upgraded when everybody figures what is the standard for HD)
I am very happy with the sound of my system but I think a SVS sub will greatly improve the sound from what I read from this forum. I need some good advice and I know this is the place. Thanks all for your time and great advice!
