reads Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I may pull the trigger on a new sub. My SW-12 is on a bypass machine since the amp went humm-ville. I am using an Audio Control c101 to recurve an old Pioneer amp to power the 'ol girl right now. I wonder how the RSW-10D will match my CF3's and Academy rear surrounds. Still running the KV-3 for center duty. I am unable to demo the sub before I buy. Looking for home theater duty only. Any opinions? -reads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reads Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 Also - If I do this, is anyone needing parts for their SW-12? I suppose we could part mine out. -reads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 a sub is playing different frequencies than your other speakers so timbre matching is not really a factor. get a sub, sub is good, this is a good sub. As long as it's enough power for your listening space you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Oryou could get a replacment amp from Parts Express if you can retrofit it into the cabinet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reads Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 Thanks - Room is 12' x 24'. Thanks for the heads up on the aftermarket amp. RSW-10D is $400.00 from an authorized reseller. -reads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reads Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Well - Picked it up for $399.77 with 12 months no interest. What a difference a sub upgrade can make. This thing sound good in the basement. -reads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reads Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 It was at a Montana VANNS store. Last one in the store in my city. There are two open box units with full warranty on the vanns.com website right now for $450.00 The one in the store was 20% off (open box sale). The sub was sealed and not opened when I got it home. I call myself lucky on this one. -reads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reads Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Flogged it tonight. Transformers on Blu Ray was intense. Running the sub at -4 Flat EQ using the LFE setting. Perfect match for my system. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
