SVS cylinder subwoofers?

Question

I have done a lot of research on these and one of my buddies has one of the entry level model. But realistically which subwoofer is the best for overall movie watching and FEELING the impact of the bass but in the entry to middle level models. My Hometheater room is about 2500sq feet. Thanks.

Answer 1

That all depends on what you want. Do you listen to a lot of music and want bass that smacks you in the face? Go for a 25Hz tuned system. Do you want it as deep as you can go even if it costs you some max output? Go for 16Hz tuning. And the 20Hz tuning is a compromise of the two. You have a big room so you might want to consider duel subs in the future. Duals won't go any deeper but they will increase the max output. Like many other areas there are trade offs to be made. Physics is the common denominator. Figure out what you want them to do and then choose accordingly. I do believe SVS are among the best subs on the market. You can't go wrong with them.

Answer 2

you get A LOT of bang for your buck with svs, they really are exceptional subs. there are other brands like velodyne and rel , and the BK monolith is supposed to rock. for big rooms like you have i would suggest more than one sub.

But i would go with the svs pc ultra cylinder or the pb13 ultra.

i have the pb12 plus and it's awesome in a 20x15 room.
