Relax guys I forgot to add Salk to that list. I will update it NOW :eek:

I thought it also worth mentioning that the manufacturers in this list that we are currently testing have NEVER tried to sway our test results or methodologies in testing. IMHO this speaks volumes about their integrity, trust in their products and trust in us to write a fair assessment of their...

Update on the Sub Shootout HSU has been added and tested without incident. Funkywaves had to submit a more powerful amp as their stock amp isn't powerful enough for such a high mass driver to hit the CEA distortion limits. Rhymik sub has a finish issue that showed up when exposed to...

agreed. My dad spent over a year on the frontlines of the N.Korean war, one of the most brutal wars in our history. He survived it and managed to raise 5 kids and is still ticking at 80 years old! Go Dad!

Aussie Pink Floyd rocks. I saw them in Clearwater to a sold out Ruth Eckerd Hall. People were offering me 3x the face value of my tickets. They were that good!

I have no desire for litigation which is why I let this go despite the fact we would likely have won due for the same reason CR beat Bose. Years ago I actually gave Earthquake the benefit of a doubt when one of our forum members claimed their Earthquake amp caused their house to go on fire...

RE: Earthquake Sound After much deliberation, we have decided NOT to publish our review of the Earthquake Sound MKVI-15BLK. Under legal threat, Earthquake Sound insisted that we NOT review their product because they disagreed with our testing methodology despite the fact we fully disclosed it...

Anyone have contact info for Ikka? Seems like he would do a great job doing product reviews for us if he would be interested.

Actually the RBH model utilizes their new SX cabinet, new long excursion 12" driver and new 500 watt amp. Its still in prototype phase and Paul is expecting to get a sample in two weeks. I need to update the model# once they tell me what it is :)

It's a financial loss to us since I had to pay Paul for his efforts as he already tested this product. It's a time loss to Paul as he could have been testing other products for us. It's also a time loss to me to deal with this very insulting rude individual. There are losses but I don't...

Yes, this is the updated list of entrees for our subwoofer shootout: * RBH Sound 12-SE * Rythmik FV15HP * Funkywaves FW12.X_SA1000_Brindle * SV Sound PB12-Plus * Salk Sound Song Sub * HSU VTF-15H

Epik was waiting on a new product development as well. Next round....

Paradigm or Klipsch wouldn't waste their time on nonsense like this. They are a legitimately run organizations with excellent product distribution.

Nope they are not in this shootout and simply didn't enter b/c their product wasn't ready. They are a nice bunch of folks and I will definitely include them in another shootout should we ever host one after this nightmarish experience.

What is strange to me is their sub actually outperforms some of the others in the comparison at least in terms of SPL output. I was really enthusiastic about promoting a smaller but potent sub in the mix. :rolleyes:

Manufacturer Threatening to Sue is if we Publish a review of their product This is part of the latest correspondence I have had with the manufacturer I mentioned in this article threatening to sue us if we publish a review of their product after they submitted us a sample for this shootout and...

I agree my article does come off a bit whiny but as owner of this site, I feel a sense of entitlement every so often to vent a small fraction of the BS I deal with on a daily basis to bring our readers FREE content. Plus it's a great place to link when we get bashed on the various forums for...

We have nothing against Seaton as he seems like a straight up guy and his products look nice. I was trying to focus this shootout on more mainstream, established brands. Funky was the exception as they were the first unknown company suggested in this thread. I can't bog down Paul with anymore...

The Insanity of the Speaker / Subwoofer Shootout This should answer a lot of questions The Insanity of the Speaker / Subwoofer Shootout

Update All products have been delivered except for RBH. Their new cabinets wont be ready for the 1010 model so they are submitting a smaller single 12" prototype. They are the smallest sub in the bunch so I hope everyone realizes size does matter in the comparison. There has been some...
