Awesome sub my friend! Not sure why anyone wouldn't buy a Funk unless they needed to be at a lower price bracket. The craftsmanship is first rate. Sub looks phenomenal. Pictures of my Funk 18.0C that I got about 3 years ago. Still loving it.

Sorry, did look through the first page. Lesson learned :) Good advice, we are on the same wavelength.

Any used options for you LougeRat? Never a bad idea to check Craigslist, you might be able to find a good deal there. I larger sub will often give you better performance than 2 smaller ones, better quality sound and extension as well. I would look at the SVS PB-1000 for $500, rather than 2...

ZeppFan, if you buy a really cheap sub, it will just muddy up your sound, you might as well not have one. If you cannot afford something better now, wait and save up for awhile. The 400 to 500 hundred range is where you typically get better subs, but they will not go really low. I would...

SB-1000 Review (with bonus subwoofer showdown!) I was one of 10 people chosen to review a sub as part of the SVS Subwoofer Review Challenge. The sub I am reviewing today is the SB-1000. This is part of the new series from SVS, pricing at $499, which is the entry level subwoofers for the...

Looking at the UPA-200 as well. How do you level match things? SPL meter needed? Thanks

Thanks shdayJ, I figured as much. Could improve the bass response in the room, but not get much more extension.

As the title says, do 2 X-ref subs make any sense? I know they are not the most powerful sub, but how much more extension would I be getting? My room is small, sealed, about 1700 in space. The sub goes down to the low 30Hz range,(corner loaded, so my guess I can get into the mid to high 20Hz)...

Thanks for all the great feedback! You guys are awesome. I have some fairly budget speakers at the moment, but I am not happy with the clarity of the center channel I have. I was looking at the Emotiva as a stop gate until I can manage to get some better speakers down the road. I know they...

Does anyone have any experience with the Emotiva XRC 6.2 as a center channel? They are on sale for $249 right now, and look like a steal to me. Also, do you crossover the center channel at 80 Hz like the rest of the system, or does it vary? This speaker is rated down to 45 Hz, but its...

I would stretch at least to the HSU VTF-1, which will only up your budget $100. Or the next one up if you are able to (VTF2-MK4). If your room opens up the kitchen, you have to count that as well (You have a lot to pressurize). You don't have to go crazy, but you will probably be happier in...

The X-ref are really nice subs if you want accuracy. The HSU will give you deeper and louder bass, but it won't be as clear or accurate. It depends what you are looking for. Most people seem to want the boom, but if appreciate the quality of the sound you are getting, the X-ref are one of the...

Question 1 One year trade-up policy is forward thinking. I have not seen it before. Question 2 I think SVS should be looking at high quality subs in the 400-500 price range. I believe you are loosing a lot of potential customers by having your cheapest sub start at $649. Question 3...
