DT Supercube I and II

[vios500]

I need some input on the supercube I and II. Was looking to add one of these bad boys to the HT and am not sure which one to go with. I read an earlier post on someone saying that they prefer the I, III and above for their durability. Says that the II was getting returned more and more where the others were not. He says he used to sell Definitive technology speakers. I certainly cannot go with a reference I supercube because my neighbors will not appreciate that. I have first hand listented to the III and I thought it was greatest sub I have experienced, a real clean controlled bass. Am I missing much by not going with the II? Any input would be appreciated.

I listened to the supercube II and to the sunfire HRS 8 , well , no doubt I would buy the HRS 8 , more precise and deep , and guess the price is even cheaper . However , cannot say a lot for the supercube I , but is supposed to be a wild beast ..... I will buy for my ht a sunfire HRS 12 , after many doubts about velo,deftech supercubes and sunfire indeed .. cross the fingers , as don't really know how the hrs 12 will sound in my room ....

bye from italy

In your 18 x 20 x ? room, you definitely want the SC I. I'd only use the II/III for music or much smaller rooms. If you don't mind their size I would enthusiastically recommend the SVS PB12-Plus which will save a few $$. http://www.svsound.com/products-sub-box-plus1.cfm

Thanks for the reply, I noticed that you have a pro center 2, is that bigger than the procenter 1 or c-1 center? Looking to pick up the C1 speaker this week for a good price. Is the C1 bigger than the c2? Trying to get it at around $50 or so, what do you think? Comparable to the CLR series?

I was looking at buying a tv from them via amazon.com and it shows 97% positive feedback... seems pretty good to me. Check resellerratings.com as well.

Couldn't anybody here answer this persons' question instead of telling us the buisness practices of this 6th ave electronics? That's the part I can't stand about forums.

The SC1 is an excellent unit for a larger room. If you are going under 1000 cubic ft volume, then go for the SC2. SC2 is great for 1000 to 1500 cubic ft.

I have heard the SC1 in a large room and it sounded awesome. Go for anyone that fits your room size as mentioned above.

Hope this helps

I certainly cannot go with a reference I supercube because my neighbors will not appreciate that.

There is a possibility your neighbors might still hate you even with a SCI, they are quite capable of prodigious output. In fact, if you have the dough, you will definitely appreciate the additional extension the Ref has over the SCI -- I own 2 Refs and have auditioned the SCI in my home. There is no comparison. You will not believe that that much low end is coming out of such a small enclosure. Get the Ref and turn it down to a respectable level. Then again, if you only have enough to get the SCI you still should be quite happy with its performance.
Oh, and don't bother with the SCII.
