Any opinions on RBH 1212-SE Subwoofer?

[Jim E.]

I'm just trying to get a feel for these or other similarly priced subs.

Budget range between $1500 to $2500.

Thanks.

I have one,.... personally I love RBH speakers, but I think you can get better subs for the money. As for the 1212-SE, it does a respectable job,.... but for the price???? If I were to do it again I would go with two SVS PB12-Plus/2.

On the other hand, if you need/want a small sub the 1212-SE is a pretty good choice, it has good solid output down to 32hz and still offers some good output down to about 25hz (according to some independent testing).

Thanks for the input.

Was trying to match them to the SI6100's. The other option was to use two 1010's but not sure that I want to go that route.

Will look into the SVS PB12-Plus/2.

Cheers,

The BMF is coming soon too, and has been compared to 4 SVS subs (not as loud, but easily as full and deep). It will be 1999 and they are basically allowing you to "borrow" a Rocket UFW-12 for the time being. (UFW-12 700 bucks without R-DES or 1099 with it)
