A aoaaron Audioholic Intern Oct 29, 2023 48 0 6 36 Nov 12, 2023 #1 Hi. I have a 4Mx6.5M room. I have a Perlisten S series base layer. I'm looking for subs. I have 2 spots where I can fit a D212S or a D15S comfortably. I cannot fit a D215S unless I put it on its side as my screen height is 75cm up from the floor. Which subs should I get? I want infrasoics and pressurisation of room as much as possible.

Maybe for your smaller room, the dual D15s might be okay. But they sucked for my room with just the 2 subs. I had to use my other subs in addition to the dual D15s.

I am on a quest to find a replacement subwoofer but it is proving difficult to find one that is comparable. Tried a REL 12" sub but it seems underpowered and lacks equal performance - any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Click to expand... A friend of mine bought 2 Perlisten subs that both failed after 2 months. So any subs with built-in amps have the risk of amp failure regardless of price. Equal-sized Ported subs will give you more bass output than sealed subs. The key is going to be how you EQ the sub. Reactions: Danzilla31

This was like 3 months ago during the summer on brand new subs. I assumed all these little plate amps are class D. What other types of amps do they use?
