Upgrade subwoofer

[SlimShaggy]

I’m currently using a Yamaha 3060 aventage receiver, paradigm 200 B bookshelves, paradigm 600 C Center speaker and the v12 paradigm subwoofer. I want to upgrade my subwoofer and I am not sure what to get. ChatGPT and Google pretty much confuse me with all their text back talk. I was looking at the defiance X 15 by paradigm, but they said for the money I could get a better sub from another. The only thing the two Ai’s did was tell me that I should probably get something besides another paradigm subwoofer. Any info would be awesome. My room is roughly 15 x 18 but it’s open ended on one side as it goes into the kitchen. I sit about 9 to 13 feet away from the TV depending on where I’m at on the couch.

In what way are you dissatisfied with the current sub?

Might also take the opportunity to move to duals. Not particularly familiar with Paradigm offerings but from some general comments/reviews I've seen they generally are competent subs, perhaps a bit pricey. What's your goal? Is the V12 dying or something?

I was running duel subs. The second sub was a cheap monoprice. The v12 is functional. I just want more. It’s about 40% streaming shows, about 30% streaming movies, 30% Xbox series c gaming. This is the list both google and ChatGPT came up with.
