How far is Rocky Mount from Charlotte? You should bring your sub over to my place so we can compare subs.... but that may be a bad idea since after hearing the Ultra, I may have to get one.
I believe Charlotte is about 3-4 hrs from here, so i need a good reason if I'm going to go. :rolleyes:

Oh boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This thing is huge! :eek::eek::eek: I had to carry it by myself from the top of my driveway into the house. The shipping weight is 165lbs. I think I'm done for the night. I'll try to set it up tomorrow.

gloss black eh? ;)

it's a heavy sub, be careful of scratching the finish when trying to manuever it out of the box and into position.

OK, I will. Why do I get the feeling you don't like that finish option? ;)

If I didn't have to get up early for work the next day and have a small child in bed, I think I would have made time to play with it. I will say it was a very long day. I'll definitely get a chance to set it up and play with it this weekend. I'll try to post an update later. :D

oh no, it's beautiful. but i've had quite a number of piano gloss subs already. and my end usage of the PB13's will be below a projector screen so PG is a no-no.

Oh!!!:eek: Hadn't thought of that. The finish matches the decor quite nicely. Had to get the wife approval ya know. Currently, I am using a 480p projector and screen, but will be adding a plasma soon. I'm trying to round out the audio first since it's more important to me. My DVD's look quite nice on the 480p projector (no virtical scaling). But I hadn't thought about the glare being an issue. :eek:

it will only glare if its in a direct path of the screen/plasma.

black felt paper kills all glare though. :)

Well, finally got around to playing with this thing. Here's a few pics since some of you had asked. Let me go ahead and apologize for the house being such a mess. Oh, and the pics aren't great. It sure is hard to get a good one due to that piano black finish. It sure is pretty though! :D
