brw01162 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 I have 2 RF-62s running of a Onkyo TX-SR608. I eventually want to get either matching or 52s RC and RS. What sub would be a good match. I don't want to spend a lot on a sub say if a Sub-10 will do the job over a Sub-12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 At roughly 4200 cu.ft, I think I'd set my sights a little higher than a Sub-12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elitedemo Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 sub12 is great budget sub, i dont think that will come close to do the job it would be asked to in a room that size, money would be better saved and waiting for a sub capable of the task Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panacea Engineering Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 22 x 32 and two Danley DTS 10's do nicely, as you can feel the thunder......but they ain't cheap....as stated earlier sub 12 is not going to be enough unless you lay next to it.....[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brw01162 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 would it be worth to set up dual sub-12? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 For the cost of 2 sub 12's, Id find a more potent single sub that'll dig deeper. I'd rather have 1 great sub than 2 good subs, unless you've got some wierd room issues you're trying to address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panacea Engineering Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 If you have some wood working skills, the TUBA project may be your ticket. It's not so much the size of the speaker as it is the volumn of the enclosure. There are several threads running around on this forum about them. I was fortunate to pick up the Danley kits when they first came out, probably some of the best money I have spent.....! W. C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironsave Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 http://emotiva.com/ultra_sub12.shtm I have this sub. It kept up with Pro Cornwalls just fine and it was not even set up properly; as the RCA cable was not long enough. I can definitely say I recommend it. IMHO way better than a Sub 12. OTOH; you will have 10 people telling you 10 different subs. Check out Epik; ED; HSu, Emotiva, SVS,and Velodyne. Your challange will be room size. Good Luck.

StephenM Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Couple other details: how loud do you like to listen to your movies, and how far away from the subwoofer will you sit? FWIW, I own a SVS PB-10 NSD in a room of similar size to your own. I sit about 8-10 feet away from it and measure levels of roughly 103-5dB at peaks from it in my typical movie watching, which is a fair bit down from reference levels. Suffice it to say, things get rumbling well enough for my tastes (and that of the ultimate volume limiter, the wife). However, if you desire higher levels than that, or if you sit further away than I do, you'd most certainly need a more capable sub than the PB-10, which I'd say is comparable in ability to the Sub-10 or 12.
