i like her face expression but i want to see more of it..just like 10 secs more...lmao...
 
Only 4 subs in this Shootout

We found some design issues with the Salk and an amp issue with the RBH sub so neither will be in this shootout. We will review the RBH sub next year as a dedicated review and update the data in the pending shootout with its data and all subs data that we test using CEA methodology.

The Shootout Measurement Primer will be posted by this coming Tuesday for you guys to dine on during the XMAS holiday.

We have some other hot reviews (non sub related) posting in the next couple of weeks so sit tight.
 
HSU VTF-15H
Rythmik FV15HP
Funkywaves FW12.X SA1000
SVS PB12-Plus

Still not a bad line-up and reading the methodology alone should be pretty educational!
 
Strictly from a Canadian perspective I know who I'll be pulling for..:D. Hey...the fact you still have 3 of the largest sub manufacturer represented in this shootout will still give this review all the credence it needs...IMO... can't wait...:).

That's easy for you to say. You probably have seat belts on your chairs;):D
 
Wait so there's only gonna be 4 subs in the article?

At least the hsual svspects won't get shafted

lol good one! I'm quite looking forward to seeing how the Funky Waves build stacks up against the others.
 
Can't wait for the results! Hopefully the results show that the HSU VTF-15H is the best sub ever (I bought it anyway, but a little pro validation would be nice!).
 
This should be fun.

Will a new thread be started for the shootout or will the results be posted here?
 
Update

The measurement protocol will be published tomorrow, not the actual measurement results. Those should start coming in after the holidays as individual reviews of each product and then a shootout summary of results article.

Can you expand on what you mean by the Salk having a design issue? I take it that one of the criteria was that the vendor was responsible for all s/h costs to and from, yes?
 
All;

I am the last in my family to get strucken by a nasty stomach virus today hence why I did not post the article. Hopefully tomorrow.....
