    sealed vs ported SVS PB3000

    yup, but it seems I get that only when in Sealed mode but don't hear or feel it.

    sealed vs ported SVS PB3000

    I ran a scan with the subs in Sealed mode vs Ported. Seemed they went down lower in Sealed mode, is that from Room Gain but why only when sealed?

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    Update: I got our new rug placed in the center of the room now time to re-tune I ran some test tones to isolate door rattle, pictures etc. I used some weather stripping to fix the front door rattle and some Loctite Fun-Tak for the picture frames. I then DB matched sub1 vs sub 2 from listening...

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    I was testing the restorer last night, on some song like an old Carol King it really helped a lot but some of the ones that were good to start with got a bit overdone. I will leave it on low for now. We moved things around a bit in the Living Room and now I need to order a new rug. Now have both...

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    Got it, yes I left them alone but was interesting to see how the distances, crossover points and speaker sizes changed. Distances all are correct now before the subwoofer was off. Was told to set them to small but after checking it appears the Audyssey changed them to large. Not going to worry...

    hey guys, just checking in. My MiniDSP microphone arrived but I haven't run it yet. I did however run the Audyssey but before I did I looked at the EQ settings and yes it was pumped up at a few spots and my distance was a bit off with from my last tune. After running the tune I played some...

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    Yeah, when I was in the demo room it took this newguy over an hour to figure out how to even get the sub to play nevermind tune it to compare. we only matched volume levels. Overall it was an awful experience. I originally wanted sealed due to size but nearly everyone I talked to said to get...

    The PB3000's in Sealed mode sound better than the SB3000's IMO. I just got them so still figuring it out.

    I just set up one so far, didn't even calibrate a thing just cranked up a song and triggered my glass break sensor in my kitchen which set off our alarm system (Outdoor sirens and all) . So far so good, seems like it cleaned up my midrange. Need to set up the other and plug the ports and run...

    My other option is to put the sub in the top left at the bottom right facing same as the one at the front right

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    Thanks guys, clearing out some space for them, going to move some things around a bit, wife is being very flexible with me moving things around a bit. I plan to put both subs in the front of the room but have them 90 degrees from the listening position, because of a doorway I can't get one of...

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    No, I asked if it came with them he said no. I inquired about them at the dealer and he said they were much more than just foam rubber, he said they help when you have Hardwoods which is what I got

    Did I overkill my room just ordered a pair of SVS PB3000's

    I got a 4700 cuft room vaulted ceiling real Hardwood floors and large opening to the kitchen. I wanted so much to get a pair of Piano Gloss SB3000's but heard a pair and was not that impressed, the dealer was really pushing Sealed Subs but I don't think they had everything set up right, it...

    Null at 70-85 hz when I play a sweep

    They have scratching posts and pads but not sure if they will attack these. I had a friend back in high school that had these awesome speakers. , went over his place one day and his speaker grills were shredded, part of the cones were destroyed as well, was a sad day. Anyway, looking at the...

    Null at 70-85 hz when I play a sweep

    oh, cant go with those, I have cats looks too much like a scratching post! That is why I leave the grills off on my towers, just cant trust them. So PB2000 better than a SB3000 you think, I don't play loud, just want to feel the effects when watching movies and want music bass that is not muddy

    Null at 70-85 hz when I play a sweep

    I switched the phase, no more null. It was going from 74db down to 62, now that I changed the phase it dips to 72 at the lowest from 74. Wifey says to buy the subwoofer I want. Dual SB2000's, SB3000? I think the PB3k might be too big plus I want piano gloss to match my other speakers.

    yes the low end of the ceiling about 8' and hallway to bedtooms, a short hall to the front door and a large 8' octagonal archway to large Kitchen/Dining area same size as this room. I might add the Null is huge
