SVS PB10-NSD vs Outlaw LFM-1 Plus

[FLMike]

I'm getting ready to purchase a Sub and have it narrowed to two, the PB10-NSD or the LFM-1 Plus. With Outlaw's special they are running, the LFM is only $70.00 higher. If I am reading the specs right, the extension on both is about the same (Quoted 20 for the SVS and 18 with one port plugged for the Outlaw), but the quoted SPL is 90 for the SVS and 115 for the Outlaw. Are those acurate, or should I take the SPL #'s with a grain of salt or two. Given the size of the room--is about 15'x25' with 8' ceilings--would either work or is there a clear winner here?
Thanks,

Mike

The Outlaw hands down. Not exactly an objective unbiased opinion however. The Outlaw is comparable to the PCI 20-39. I am unfamiliar with your model so I must leave that to others. However, the Outlaw is a really fine sub that I have been really pleased with.

I used to own the PB-10 and it that sounds about right for 18Hz, which is where it starts to drop off. It depends on your specific room acoustics too though. In a room that size, the PB-10 should be good, though I would probably step up to the PB-12. That means if the numbers are accurate for the LFM-1 Plus, it might be a better choice with the 12" driver.
