SVS PB-12 Plus 2 Need advice please

[jamie2112]

I have the chance to pick up a used great condition PB 12 plus 2 for 600. I am not sure if this is a good deal. Any advice would be a big plus......

Ought-oh. I hope that you're not eyeing the same one that Carl is (start at post 9).

Then again, you two might become buddies and start rocking out.

BTW, I'd say it's a good deal, but definitely read Warp's input and advice in that thread that I linked to above.

I don't know what the used market is on the Plus/2. I do know that is some awesome performance for $600 bucks.

 

[Warpdrv]

Id be all over that If I was you....

Its a great sub... and worth that money...

I paid 1300.00 for my first one, and 1000.00 for my second...
They are premium finish though... and prices fell since then...

Good luck

He is in NC and I am in DC...thanks I will check it out

 

[Warpdrv]

Looks like they are both in NC so I imagine they are looking at the same sub...

Wow what are the odds...

**** Edit**** must be an error on my part... not the same places...

Seemed close enough to me that you might be seeing the same add. Hopefully not, as it would be great for both of you to snag a sub like that for $600!

 

[jamie2112]

I guess I am going to snatch it up then. I will be getting my first "real" sub I am getting excited......

Excellent! Please keep us updated.

BTW, do you know if it has the latest 12.3 drivers? SVS is selling those for $169/each, or $300 for a pair. Something to consider if the sub doesn't have them but you want them - that ups the price to $900 (plus shipping). Just something to consider.

Excellent advise.

Excellent advise.

Thanks, Mazer! Warp mentioned it first in the other thread...I just added the prices.

want me to ban the other dude?

just kidding other dude.

600 bucks for a plus/2 is great! (as long as the finish is intact)

LOL....I was hoping you would chime in there Mike. I am getting it on Saturday and I am very excited. Like I said, it will be my first real sub so I am glad I waited to get something nice. Thanks for all the input guys....as usual big help in making decisions

 

[mike c]

what finish is it in?

even at clearance, svs was selling it at 1000+.

it's a mighty killer sub. remember, it took the ultra13 to replace the plus/2.

 

[jamie2112]

Its the black finish...

 

[jamie2112]

I just got the Jamo concert series 5.1 upstairs and needed a new sub as my old velodyne was sold last week. This will be perfect...

[jamie2112]

Oh thats what I thought we couldn't be going for the same one. That would be too small of a world IMO.....Good luck I got ahold of my guy last night and closed the deal......
