joehernandez509 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Lol I inquired about that sub already. The only thing that I don't like about it is the age and I think it's missing the external crossover it came with . I am a little worried about its dependability . Also for close to its price I have seen subs like a martin logan dynamo 1000 for 500$ . I am not sure how those stack up against eachother but I just wonder if I can get a newer sub for about the same price that could give me about the same performance or better ?

Scrappydue Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 i just bought an dynamo 300 and to me its ok for a little bedroom sub for watching movies once in a while. but it isnt a real sub at all. i bet you that the rf-83's play just as low and cleaner at higher volumes than that dynamo would. you have big towers that need a beefy sub. take your time saving as a sub is the second speaker that you are supposed to spend the most money on. o me unless you get an svs, the sub should be a 15". svs gets away with the pb-12 plus and pb-13 ultra because they are insanely high quality drivers with very high output. if your speakers are black, then the new psa xv-15 in black oak would probably match very well.

derrickdj1 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Go for a 15 in sub to do it right. You need a good sub to go with the RF 83 and RC 64. If space is a problem then the Outlaw or SVS sub are nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Derrick outlaw doesn't make a 15" sub. Svs cylinder will save on space. Depending on your listening volumes and room size the pc-12 Nsd could be a great alternative. Or you could go DIY......yep I am officially gonna be one of those guys now. Best bang for your buck by FAR! And it's so easy with all the new options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joehernandez509 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Thanks for the suggestions guys. What do you guys think a out that paradigm servo sub. How would it stack up against the svs or hsu? Also remember if its till available I think I could get it for under 400$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I personally get a little worried about subs if they are a few years old. In fact I generally am not comfortable buying a sub without a warranty really. There is an svs pc-12 plus on avs for 580 I think and it would probably dominate the servo 15 and newer too. It's just a bit out of warranty. Only reason I didn't snag it for my living room. Ill buy stuff with no warranty if the price is great and something breaks and can be replaced and still be a good deal. Otherwise since subs involve electronics I stick with newer stuff.

joehernandez509 Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Yeah I kind of feel the same. If something is just a couple years old that's o e thing but going on almost ten years old or more makes me worried although that one looks pretty good condition.

joehernandez509 Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 I am sitting here on my day of rest listening to some music and it sounds great . Piano really sounds good for some reason on these. It's amazing also how much effeciant these speakers are and how explosive they sound even at low volumes . Maybe tomorrow I get a chance to really crank them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should have worded things a little better.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had I never got on this forum I'd be listening to them right now with about 15,000$ more in my savings. But insure do enjoy everything I have now.
