amusingisthedawn Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SubDudeHD/ Would you use one of these on an HsuTN1220HO? I'm not sure if cylinder subs would fall into the catagory of needing something like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ave Bona Cornwall Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I have seen some SVS PC line subs on SubDudes. FWIW. I think it may just be personal preference?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amusingisthedawn Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 I just wonder if the theory still applies if the direction of the driver changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdmarsiii Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I have one and love it, but I don't have a cylinder subwoofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4tay Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Cylindrical subs (I had that very model) have a different type of bass. The bass "fills" but doesn't have the same air-moving impact as a front firing box sub. I prefer the box subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amusingisthedawn Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 I don't know if I agree with you. Both styles really do the same thing, any difference would be pretty minor...at least with what I have noticed. Any low frequency will "fill", and they should be close as far as SPL goes, comparing apples to apples and not different companies. Haha, and I don't really see how that helps me decide if I should use the subdude. Are you saying the sub's filling doesn't hit the ground because it's so light and fluffy?

wuzzzer Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I'm pretty sure that every cylinder sub that SVS has made has a round base that's basically a round subdude. I'm not sure about other companies' cylinder subs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amusingisthedawn Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 True. However, Hsu put the driver on top of the cylinder (very top heavy)...so haha I have no idea where that leaves us. I don't think it could hurt to use a subdude with it. I might even use something similar under the KLF's. Any recommendation on a product like that?

Any low frequency will "fill", and they should be close as far as SPL goes, comparing apples to apples and not different companies. I know if I agree with me because I have owned both types (for years) and it's true. The HSu and SVS tube subs just don't have the same effect (very noticable, and they don't do the same thing). Again, make mine a TC sounds or Velodyne...box sub, period. Note that SVS and HSU's best stuff...box subs. The turbo equipped v3 is a much better sub than the 1220.
