About a year ago I upgraded my front 3 to the 20's. Now it's time to upgrade my old sub. There are so many sub companies out there, I don't really know where to start looking.
Needs: - Flat responce from 20 to 120 hz. - Auto on/off - LFE input - Phase control Wants: - Small footprint (this can be due to cube sub, or tube sub [WAF]) - Style to match gloss black 20's. Room Diamentions: - L shaped livingroom (18w16d12h)/entry (8w6d12h) [aproximations] - Openings to hall, kitchen and dining room. Notes: While I mostly watch movies and play games, I tend toward a musical preference from my sound. In other words, I prefer accuracy over power. Also, I'd like to keep this under $500, but I've learned from my last outting that my budget is more of a suggestion than a requirement. Thanks to any and all with a suggestion. |

For a very flat response and small footprint the VTF-1 by Hsu Research would be great. And it is very much in your price point, its roll off begins at 25 hz, but you can expect it to get lower by about 2 hz once in your room, it will sounds much deeper then the specs state, and full sounding too. There is also the STF-2 for $319 plus shipping, it isn't as flat a response, but pretty dam flat too.
You can get the eD A2-350 also for $350, there is a 4 week lead time at the moment, but it will get to 18 hz, and has a flat response, but not as flat as the Hsu subs do. |

For a small footprint you should also check out the cylinder subs from SVS. They start with the PC12-NSD for $600. I know they're more than the eD, but looking at the part where you want a small footprint, and this sub is 16" in diameter. Forum member Fors* has two of these and I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you sent him a PM asking what he thinks of them.

On a side note, Fors have you considered making new socks for yours in a different color? I've heard of people doing this. |

I took a look at the SVS, HSU and ED a bit last night. So far I'm leaning towards the HSU and SVS. Does anyone have any experience with more than one of these(3)? I need some way to compare them. Also, any more contenders, or is this the cream of the crop for my requirements?
Thanks Last edited by drummerboy_2002; 02-09-2010 at 01:04 PM. |

When I had my Polk PSW10 with the PC12, that was a big challenge. I ended up crossing over the Polk sub at like 40-50Hz and letting the SVS sub handle everything below that to get them to sound balanced and to where the Polk sub wouldn't start "chuffing" on the much lower frequencies. In your case, they are much more similiar, but still different, so I am curious..... |
