Neither one. I'd go for one SVS PB12-NSD, or, if you can afford two Max10s, an SVS PB12-Plus. You'll get more bass with either SVS, according to the AH reviews.

I can get the Max 10's, new, for $437. Looking at mostly music over HT; maybe 70/30. Not sure about the SVS musically.

I'd still recommend splurging (or saving until you can) and get an SVS. The Velodyne subs in this price range just aren't very impressive, performance-wise.

Why not go with a PSA XV15....you should be able to afford it based on the $$$$$$$ you are saying you can spend. Should crush either of the options you have suggested.

PSA XV15 is looking really hard to beat at $800. The only thing that comes close is the Hsu VTF3, but that is if you want the extra features more than the sheer output. Velodyne and SVS don't compare as well. The EQ Max 15 actually has pretty good mid bass output, it just has really sad low bass output, whereas the opposite is true of the PB12, but at least with the PB12 you get a flat frequency response. One sub I am curious about in this price range is the Klipsch SW115.
