  1. I did it. As you can see I sent the sub to my work. Everybody at work including me said "Its so big" so when I took the picture I wanted to give it some scale so I left the the pallete jack under the skid. Yes it came on a skid. I got it home, hooked it up ran audissey then called Ed at SVS and he went through the set-up with me. I'm glad he was there to help. Having never set one of these up, there were lots of presets in the marantz I never touched before. It sounded very good.not quite as "in your face" as i was hopeing for, but I think thats why most of you guy's have 2 subs. But what it did was make the klf 20 sound so clean. we set the crossover at 40 and then the sub takes over. It goes a lot lower than the klf20's. Im very happy. I played the end of the bluray Skyfall at 0db. The sceen where the old orphange blows up and wow, It sounded like the theater. it was so dynamic, my nieghbor came over to see if something had happend. so I replayed for him.He was blown away. I could not be any happer. Now i need to replay everything so I can rediscover all the cool low stuff that i have been missing. Thanx for monoprice I will get my cables from them. I will also get cables for my DVD audio player. Ill bet some of those discs sound real good too "so much to listen to, and so little time". I think this is where i will keep sub. in time i will move it around to see if it sounds better or different in other places, but I think this is the spot. here is the Pic
  2. Hi, How do I post a picture? I see the icon with the tree on it, I click on it up comes a box with options and it will not let me cut and paste a picture. I go to help up at the top where you sign in and it sends me to this page that has nothing to do with klipsch. I don't understand. do i need to compose all of this in notepad or word and cut and paste the whole thing? Very confused, Alain
  3. Well It should be here tomorow, I can't wait. I have a few 12 foot RCA cords and some female to female adapters I will use for starters. What do you guy's think, will I be able to test accuratley enough? A really good cord could be as much as $75 or $100 and the sub could be anywhere from 6 feet to 40 feet ( 10ft front 15ft side 17ft rear). I want to buy the right length the first time. I have never had a home theater sub so i dont really where it will sound best. tomorrow cant get here quick enough, Alain
  4. Hi again, After my Electronics Engineer friend in buffalow N.Y. looked at both the hsu and the svs read all the specs and gave me his 2 cents worth. and after I called both companys Man it was a tough choice I made my pick. I'm going with the Svs pb12-nsd I pulled the trigger and it should be here next week. I want to say thanx to all who helped me make my choice. I will post pictures (If I can figure out how) and blow by blow or thump by thump.as i set it up. So now I can't wait for the weekend to be over. (Thats Odd) Thanx to all, Alain
  5. Hi again, I have been checking out the Svs pb12nsd Its in my price range. Its cheaper (pricewise) $769 free shipping. The Hsu vtf-3 mk4 $699 $99 shipping. So there is a $30 difference. "thats the same price" I'm going to call svs they stay open till 9:00 and there in Ohio. I just want to pick there brain. I Have only bought a sub for live sound. thanx to all for your input. Alain PB12-NSD PB12-NSD
  6. Hi, My klf c7 came with rubber feet. Alain
  7. Hi again, First of all I would like to say thanx to everyone for your answers. Youthman, I have e mailed crigslist per willland suggestion and i'mwaiting for a call. By the way, Youthman I looked at your photo gallery and Wow..... If It sounds a good as it looks, and i'm shure it does, I can only hope to get there someday. K5ss I think the HSU VTF-3 MK4 looks It might be the one. I like the way you can tune it by pluging the 2 port. It's more then I can spend but I might do it anyway. I think I will call Hsu company and ask questions. From there forum the seem willing to give good customer care. 2 votes for the RSW 10's. Still waiting for an email or call. Thanx again, Alain
  8. Hi again, The room is 14x19x8 but the home theater takes up 14x14 with the dinning room and the computer at the outher end. viewing distance is about 9 feet and add a foot once I hang the plazma on the wall (the next project after the sub) I Will check out your sggestions and thanx again, Alain
  9. Hi, I have 6 or 700 bucks to spend on a sub. I have no where in town that carries anything but the 2 to $300 "best buy" subs. So What Do any of you guys think. Heres my list of equipment; 2 Klf 20 1 klf c7 Marantz SR6005 recever Bi-amped (Highs) 2 Crown dc300A Running mono (lows) 2 s20 surrounds 50" samsung Plazma samsung blueray I get good lows, but i think I could do better. don't think the klf 20s go that low. What they do, they do real good. I could leave the setup as and ad a sub. or x the crowns and add a sub. Before i added the crowns It sounded good but with them.... Man what a difrence. lots more headroom.Then again how cool is it to say "Its Bi-Amped". Im looking at the sw112 or the 115 Thanx For any Help Alain Coirier
