I'm about to purchase my first subwoofer ever. I've bought my system over a long period of time, thanks to a lot of information from this forum, and now it's time to put that ".1" on my 5.0 system.
My current system has a Denon 3802 receiver, Paradigm Monitor 5s, CC-370, and ADP-170s. I'm looking at either the SVS PB-2 ISD ($900) or the PB-2 Plus ($1200).
I think my living room is a Home Theater System's nightmare, having multiple hallways and large openings into my kitchen and keeping room. The two hallways are on the "north" side of my living room (standard hallways leading to bedrooms) and on the "south" side of the room I have an extra large opening leading to the kitchen and keeping room with another doorway sized opening to the kitchen. All of these openings are near the corners of the room. The living room is approximately 19 feet long (east-west) by 17 feet wide (north-south). However, I have a entrance hall and a dining room which are a part of this room as well on the "east". The width of the entrance hall/dining room is approximately 10 feet. Sorry for the poor description, but I can't figure out how to upload a sketch.
Obviously I'm not looking for a litmus test here, but opinions are appreciated. The easy answer, I guess, is just to spend the extra $300, but the money is hard-earned and I don't want to just spend it unless there's a good reason to do so.
Any advice?
Thanks.
