SVS subwoofer help

[Warpdrv]

I agree with the Maple finish... $779.00


I just recently sold my PB12-Plus in Piano Black for $800.00, discounted to a local guy from $850.00 and that was a good deal for him... and me...

Thats a good price at $779.00

pb12plus

wow you sold him the piano gloss black for 800 dollars. i would have bought that in a heartbeat. i have nothing thats of that color. my tv is black. my tv stand is black. my clock in my living room is black. im not sure how it would look :-\. do you guys know anywhere where i can find it for 800? either gloss black or textured black?

Go for the HO, you won't be disappointed.

 

[Warpdrv]

Yeah, he was a really nice guy, and we had some fun just hanging out listening to different material on both my systems. I'm just glad it was a local guy.

I had bought it off of B-Stock almost 1 year ago, for a extended discount, so I didn't really lose much from a year ago, as well as the fact it was in perfect condition, not a scratch.

i just found this review of subwoofers.

AV123 MFW-15 ($599 ID): 103 points (53-50)
eD A5-350 ($715 ID/SI): 96 points (50-46
Epik Valor ($549 ID): 91 points (44-47)


SVS PB12-Plus/2 ($1299 ID): 87 points (47-40)

so does that mean the first THREE are better than the pb12 plus? since the first three are already better than the pb12plus/2.

 

[mike c]

no. not to everyone.

Hsu VTF-3 Mark III + Turbo ($799 ID): 92 points (45-47)

ok mikec. how abt out all of these which one do YOU think is better than the pb12 plus? im just trying to figure out the best way i can save money. thank you.

 

[mike c]

probably equal or better IMO: HSU HO with turbo

i'd like to recommend AV123, but there's no timeframe on when their subs are available (there is actually, but i think it's not fixed)
i'd like to recommend Epik Caliber but there's no published specs or 3rd party tests
i'd like to recommend eD but even my two drivers i had sent for rebuilding isn't back yet.

in the end, you get what you pay for.

edit: did not notice that the HSU HO with turbo might be more expensive than the PB12Plus

 

[t1mu]

yea the hsu ho with turbo is too expensive. im about to order the av123 mfw15 -it's perfect for the price and how good people say it is. my room is 20x10 once again so i think it would be perfect right?. it says ETA JULY for satin black. does that mean i will receive the subwoofer in july? :-\ and one of their options says satin black with PALISANDER ROSA FACE? wat is that??

 

[mike c]

it means the body is black, but the fascia is palisander rosa.

good luck, and let us know if you do get it in July

 

[t1mu]

ok im probably gonna get that one. im going to call them up on monday or tuesday and ask them if i definitely will get it in july then ill order it. thank you guys very much for your help everyone. i will post pictures up of my tv and my setup once i get it. thank you. bye.
