So 3000 cuft or so, depending on that stair/alcove. A pair of 12" should work well, and I'd go for a ported design with movies in mind. SVS also has a very good rep for assisting in sub choices (they have an online chat) but you better find out what models they have, likely only a few at best is my guess.

I've never watched the video myself....I prefer to read rather than have to turn down the audio on the system :)

Man I am tired of reading .. every time I design something I gotta search and read and that's what I do for living .. at this particular time .. my mind is completely off

So about 16% over US pricing on the PC2000, but 25% on the PB12 plus (the only two I checked)...actually I expected worse; altho you don't get free shipping or in-home trial period I assume, nor the bill of rights that you get from SVS directly?

I doubt I get any of what you mentioned .. just a one year warranty inside KSA only I assume

Hasan. I just have a second but wanted to weigh in quick. Two of my 3 subs are pc 12 pluses. I love the cylinder design and if your experience is limited to your polks, I can guarantee that you have no idea what's in store for you. The pc2k is a cool sub, but the plus models are a step above, and not a mile away from the ultra.

Those are the same 2 I was thinking too. Though if Hasan has the cash, the PB13 Ultra is a pretty badass sub. If it wasn't so cost prohibitive for me I'd have a pair of those. Actually probably a pair PB16 Ultras.

The thing is man I have to prioritize when it comes at cash.. I am on the verge of building a new house and that is costly .. very costly.. but It is not before a year minimum.. meanwhile I would like something with good value and good sound that level up with my AVR you know.. that's my goal.. I am also thinking about their speakers ,, how would you recommend them?

Oh I know. That's why I said "if you have the money". Both the PC2000 and PB2000 are awesome subs. Two thumbs up.

Ask @Pogre since he has fairly new SVS speakers, I have a pair of older SVS speakers myself in one of the bedrooms (MBS-02, now discontinued), good speakers.

well @Pogre what do you think of their speakers? should I get a new 11.2 from there and get it done at one strike?

aren't they entry level like the polk I have?
Think of subs more about size of driver, power of amp, and size and construction of enclosure (which has a great influence on sub performance). IMO even their SB1000/PB1000 subs are far better than anything Polk makes....
