Wow to the uk! I bet that wasn't cheap. I know years ago I bought a rel over there and brought it back in order to save some coin. I'm sure you will love it I love mine.

Cheers,
Matt

Paul,

Thanks for the kind words, one thing though about the "just real nice people to deal with" comment.

Remember, we're "NATO" (Not At The Office) when it comes to complaints about your neighbors china plates rattling and pensioners having flashbacks to "the blitz". I hope you have a nice country estate and not a flat in Birmingham?

I'm afraid the PC-Plus will be something like "The Blitz" in 5.1 surround.

Don't tell us we didn't warn you ;^)

Ron

Whoo hoo! Friday is going to be a good day! (Provided the shipping goes well)!

Can't wait, I'm holding out to watch Blade][ as the first use of the SVS!

My dual 20-39 PCplus' did arrive today as scheduled. I'm pretty well dialed in, but will be working with them more over the coming week.
First impressions are very favorable with movies (Pod Race in "Phantom Menace", all kinds of scenes from "Das Boot") and music, though there isn't a lot of stuff below my crossover point of 40Hz in stereo (listening to "Cold Tea Blues", Cowboy Junkies, "Flight of the Cosmic Hippo", Bela Fleck and the Flecktones). :D
Will hold further thoughts for the longer term, but I've been around the block enough to know that my first impressions usually hold water most of the time.
Anyone know what's the best way to take the top grill off to look inside or use the port blocks a little down the road? I don't want to bung it up with just the grip it and rip thought. Also, any thoughts how to reverse a polarized plug if a ground loop develops during my excursions of moving these tubes around the room to different plugs?
See ya. Dave

Poppin' the top is easy Dave. You can't hurt anything, just do like the info from SVS says, give it a bearhug and lift with your fingertips.

Did you listen to the stand up bass on the Diana Krall dvd yet? Blue Man Group is a lot of fun too! Try track 9.

Screw waiting long term to comment further.

Trying my best to curb my enthusiasim, but after many hours I've nailed my dual 20-39 PCplus setup for both music and movies.

Ron, Tom, and the rest at SVS....this is the best ported sub I've ever heard (felt). I've been able to blend them in pretty darn seamlessly with first order crossover Dunlavy speakers, and to the point where they don't draw attention to their locations. With music, bass notes are as stacatto as I've ever heard with a vented design, and rivals sealed-box performance.

And no need to mention movies. As everyone is starting to hear, these subs are outstanding where the movie calls for it to be a monster.

Great job!

See ya. Dave

For those of you who are still waiting on your PC+ to ship, I received my shipping confirmation yesterday. Order #5369. I emailed SVS twice over the course of 2 weeks to check estimated shipping dates. Both times I was told it would be late this week or early next week. This is the first time I've experienced a company that actually shipped something earlier then anticipated. Needless to say it was a nice surprise.
