I was wanting to know if anyone has owned one of these for awhile and if they would be good to buy used? Any particular model to avoid?
there's really no match for the 5000, IMHOOh, I know of a few subs that could give an MX5000 more than a run for it's money with a $3000 budget. There are a number of DIY options that could do it for less than $1000 and with $2000-$3000 could run it into the ground.
Also a better comparison from SVS price wise to a MX5000 would be a pair of PB2+ subs, or the B4+, or a pair/quadruple of 20-39PC+ subs, or a pair of SVS Ultra's. None of these would have a problem keeping up to an MX5000 output wise. Sound wise, that's up to you which you like better.
Oh and adding a second 20-39PC, if placed properly would add 6dB of headroom across the board.
And as far as SVS goes.. God knows they make the best subs
in the world and nothing can stand against them...
