SVS 20-39 PCI vs 20-39 PCI+ - worth the extra money?

[Bluesmoke]

Sonicboomaudio is selling the 20-39 for $749can and 20-39+ for $1049. It's a $300 difference. Any advice?

The plus series is a great sub....

The performance difference is worth the extry money, Better driver, and much larger amp, that impact will be signifcant.....

the Plus line is a great value... If you are coming from a lesser grade sub, you will not be sorry one bit...

Depending on your room size and listening volume of course...

One word: YES. The Plus has a considerable amount more output than a regular NSD. In particular, if you have a larger room, you will want the Plus, but for a $300 difference, I'd still go for the Plus.

I have the 25-31 plus and decided to go with it instead of the PCi due to having a huge room. SVS recommeded the one you are considering, but my wife didn't like the increased height I have about 4000 sq ft. I plan to post my impressions when I get it hooked up.
Unfortunately, it is sitting in a box until the carpet goes down in the rec room on the 23rd

If the extra $300 wont break you, then yes...... spend the extra $300 and buy the more capable sub

You'll have no regrets...

HEH.... I just bought a Plus/2 at Christmas, and I don't really have the extra money, but with the discount on the Gloss Black I was thinking I might just buy a PB12-Plus for my future bedroom setup... Hmmmm

Makes one think...

 

[mazersteven]

Totally worth it.

And worse yet, there is a Gloss Black Plus/2 on B-Stock for $1149.

But I really want to try out the 12hz extension on the Plus... in a small room..
That would really add to the shaking of my bed... !!!!

Oh the senseless spending goes on...

If money is no object and the budget is flush...absolutley go with the Plus. However, if you're on a budget (like me ) just know that the PCi can more than adequately handle most average rooms. A great deal depends on the space you're trying to fill. If you've got 3000+cubic feet, then, yeah, you need the Plus...or shoot the moon and hold out for the new Ultra! However, if you're only trying to fill one or two thousand feet and the budget is tight, the PCi will rock your world without issue!
