Edgar_in_Indy Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) SUBWOOFER HAS SOLD FOR THE ASKING PRICE I need to fund a big subwoofer upgrade for my home theater so I'm (reluctantly) offering some nice speakers for sale. Up for grabs is the mighty Velodyne MiniVee subwoofer. This is a sealed subwoofer with an 8" driver powered by a 1000W RMS /2000W "Dynamic" power subwoofer. The crazy thing is how tiny it is...approximately 10"x10"x12". This tiny little sub is solid though, and at 33 lbs it feels like you're picking up a cinder block when you move it. Given its small size, it's perfect if you need to hid a sub but don't want to sacrifice sound, or you just want something smaller, such as for use with a 2.1 computer speaker system. Reviewers and owners rave about the performance of the MiniVee, and here's a couple links to reputable professional reviews: http://hometheaterhifi.com/reviews/speaker/subwoofers/velodyne-minivee-subwoofer/ http://www.audioholics.com/subwoofer-reviews/velodyne-minivee I'm asking $430 shipped for the subwoofer, and local pickup is available. I also have a pair of ELAC B6 speakers for sale in another ad. Edited May 4, 2016 by Edgar_in_Indy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgar_in_Indy Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Wow! I absolutely love your photography skills! Best wishes with your sale Thanks, photography is my other hobby. Whenever I have some spending money to play with, I'm always torn between audio/Home Theater gear, and a new lens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwells Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Is the MiniVee the 8" or 10" model? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar_in_Indy Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Is the MiniVee the 8" or 10" model? thanks Sorry, it's the 8". I don't think the 10" is made anymore, so the "new price" in my post refers to the current price for the 8". I'll update the original listing. Thanks! FYI, I also owned the 10" model in the past. Although I never listened to both side by side, the performance is very similar from what I recall of the 10". I remember seeing frequency graphs of the two subs at some point, and it seems like the 10" went a bit deeper, but the 8" had a bit more volume in the mid-bass range. The 8" model has a smaller cabinet, and is approximately two inches smaller on each side than the 10" model, so it is easier to hide. (10.9"x10.4"x12.8" vs 12.75"x12.375"x14.5") Edited March 13, 2016 by Edgar_in_Indy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Owned one of these in Japan for a couple years. Great little subs! Funny how many of us are into photography. Although I can't really say I'm into it a ton. Camera comes out maybe twice a year. Sad. I've got a lot of money into all that stuff.

Yeah, pound for pound and inch for inch, I think the MiniVee is hard to beat. I've found that by adding more-compact options to my camera kit, I'm much more likely to take my cameras out and shoot with them. I picked up the Panasonic GX7 last year, which is an m43 camera, and it gets way more use than my APS-C DSLR. It's amazing how small and light the lenses are. I own an m43 fisheye lens that I could literally slip into a jeans pocket (Olympus 9mm fisheye). And I've also owned some of the high-end compacts, such as the Panasonic LX-100 and the Sony RX-1. It's amazing how much quality they can squeeze into a small camera, as long you're willing to pay a little extra for it (kind of like the MiniVee!)

willland Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 This sub would be excellent in a PC rig. Perfect size for under computer desk and great extension for small bookshelf or PC speakers. Good luck with your sale. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
