Subwoofer

[ak808]

I have the velodyne dps10 and I chose that model because well I wanted to feel the bass. Out of all I auditioned this was by far the one I felt the most. I was able to only audition the polk, mtx, velodyne vpr, klipsch and a few others I can't remember. To me this model looked the nicest and had the overall impact I was looking for. For music however I probably wouldn't recommend it since the bass is very strong. The vpr12 model I heard had a more cleaner sounding bass but for home theater the dps was the right choice for me. I actually bought the vpr model tried it out for a day and returned it for the dps. The only draw back was that it was a pain in the ass to tune. Reason being the volume control is not your conventional knob style but rather a up and down button with blinky lights so it's kinda hard to tell where you are at as far as volume goes. I did have an annoying hum coming from it when mated with the onkyo 705 but a dayton isolator fixed that problem and even made my picture cleaner. Bottom line once tuned right and humming fixed I am now completely satisfied with this sub and definitly changed my home theater experience. Oh and FWIW I upgraded from the onkyo ht800 to a 705 and def tech speakers. However, I upgraded the sub first and with the old system it made a world of difference.
