Yes I bugged them to increase the port length so its a new change as of last month going forward on all new products shipping today as far as I known. EMP is offering existing customers FREE port extensions (minus shipping) if you want to retrofit your product with the longer ports for...

My review unit was pre-production (first article sample). I trust EMP will have good quality control with actual products shipping. Part of the problem with us scooping reviews due to the popularity of this site and manufacturers wanting reviews ASAP, is we often are the guinea pigs of this...

It's a bit tricky placing a sub in such close proximity to the listening seats, even if an 80Hz xover point is used. I've had good results doing it for multi subwoofer installations where the one right behind the sofa was turned down a little lower than the others.

The finish is NOT a real wood veneer so the cost may not be as high as you think. EMP seems to have found the right balance between performance and aesthetics based on my findings when reviewing this sub. The dominant limiting factor in this sub is its small box size. If they would have made...

at $499, there are subs from Rythmik, HSU and Epik that likely produce more usable output below 30Hz but I don't think any of them match the aesthetics of the EMP sub and they all require more floorspace too.

Now that we are being more stringent in how we evaluate subs, it's forced me to be a bit more critical in the ratings. We've also had time since the Ultra 12 to further study offerings in this price point which again made us re-evaluate our ratings. Also, the Ultra12 eventually came down in...

The event will be in Tarpon Springs Florida on October 27th. More details coming soon

I re-read this passage and I can see how it's insensitive to our readers so I changed it as follows: If you primarily listen to heavily compressed music, consider bring along an audiophile friend (or his choice music collection) that has a wide diversity of quality recordings so you can use...

I have much of those and they still don't compare to a really good Jazz recording or even the likes of music from Sting, Eagles, etc. Hey use all the music you like and as much diversity b/c ultimately it's what you listen to!

I listen to some heavy metal (no death metal though) and I would NEVER use it as demo material. With the exception to Porcupine Tree, very few metal or rock bands produce good quality recordings.

While the Emo Xref-12 is a nice sub you may want to hold off a few days for my EMP ES1010i sub review which has similar performance to the Emotiva XREF12, but matching cosmetics to the rest of the EMP system should you decide to go that route. If you don't care about cosmetics matching or...

I had this combo many moons ago and loved it! The DSP-A3090 is a smooth sounding amp and the Sony DVP-S7000 had awesome sound and build quality. I sometimes miss those components.

I went to your website and it appears you only offer Car Audio products? see: Subwoofers - Cadence Sound Store We don't do car audio but if you do sell home theater subs, please point me in the right direction. thanks.

Good point and I was mostly talking about desktop and laptops not tablets. I've been able to get a 13.3" Lenovo laptop for about $650 that had the same hardware configuration (I5 processor, 4GB ram, 500GB HD) for roughly 1/2 the entry level MacBook Pro without including buying a separate...

Agreed and this is why I will never own an Apple computer. It's the same hardware as an IBM clone for 2X the price (not counting the extra software you need to run it in IBM mode) b/c of a proprietary operating system. Sorry but I keep each laptop I buy for about 4-5 years and tend to never...

$129??? That can't be right! My neighbor bought this sub last year for a bedroom system to compliment his E55ti's. I was a little hesitant since he paid almost $400 for it and felt he could have gotten a sub with better specs for the money. He wanted everything to match and got it anyways...

Sorry I misread the model#. you are correct. Between the ES10i and the Ultra 12, I'd go Ultra 12.

Hmm, it's not showing all the pages yet. Give it an hour or so for our site Cache to catch up. In the meantime, here is the full review: http://www.audioholics.com/reviews/speakers/subwoofers/eq-max-15/eq-max-15-introduction

This is a good question and although I haven't compared both subs in the same listening environment, I use an Ultra 12 in my work out room all the time and really like it. It's compact and very tight sounding. It has a better quality driver in it, but the EMP sub is subjectively nicer looking...
