I think I promised a review of the SB13-Ultra and I thought I posted it here. Looks like I didn't, so here are my impressions: The build quality of the SB13-Ultra is outstanding! Looks great in the Black Oak finish and is heavier than this relatively compact box looks. I still haven’t...

More Rolling More Rolling I had the chance to play a little more with tube rolling after obtaining a set of Sylvania 5670 tubes. After spending a few hours listening and taking notes, here are my impressions comparing the Sylvanias to the GE 5670 Black Plates: On Eric Claptons’...

Tube Rolling and Final Thoughts Now armed with my very own MP-D1 we go to the rolling of tubes from the stock (still good sounding as previously noted) NOS Bejing 5670s to the American manufactured GE 5670 Black Plate tubes. Wow! There is a noticeable difference in PRaT, and impact of the...

A friend kindly offered to loan me a Grant Fidelity TubeDAC-11 (Grant Fidelity TubeDAC-11 D/A Converter) last week to play with and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to see what a DAC could do for my system. I know that DACs come in all shapes and sizes and prices range from a few...

Got mine up here in Canada on the 16th! :D Just ran MCACC on it so far and haven't had much of a chance to tweak it (waiting for an external soundcard to run REW so I can adjust the PEQ). So far, I'm really impressed with its musicality! Had a fellow audiophile over on the W/E to listen-...

Congrats PBC (Steve? I'm assuming). So now that you have another sub added to your stable, are you going to keep them all?

All reviews were great and it's because of the 3 of you that I pulled the trigger on this one. Now that my post count is high enough, my vote has to go to PBC's review for its great detail. Thank-you all!

Well, if you do happen to get the chance to compare them musically, please let us know. :)

In another review that you once did on your PB13-Ultra, you stated "...the PB13 more than held its own and in my opinion and others outclassed the other offerings in particular for Home Theater, and was rated a “tad” behind the F113 for “musicality”...." I just wondered, in you opinion, how...

Sorry. That's cubic feet.:o

The viewing space of my family room is 12 x 13.5 x 8 but it opens directly onto a seating area at the side and then up to the 8" raised dinette area to the kitchen cabinets which are 14 feet away and then to the kitchen. So roughly 1225 addtional square feet is added to the side of the 1300...

I thought about buying an XPA-3 for myself, but I decided to up-grade my sub to the new SVS SB13-Ultra. The XPA will have to wait....:o

Great reviews from all three! I decided to pull the trigger myself and just got one on the pre-order special. Can't wait!:)
