gigbyt Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 sounds like you would want to look at the SVS16-46pc+ maybe two of em . 875.00 each +shipping so what probably 1850.00 for two of them including shipping. the pc+ line has a built in 525 watt amp and phase controls. i have two 16-46cs+'s with a samsom 1000 amp and they go very low and very loud. these will shake the hell out of your room when it's called for!!!!!!!!!. svsubwoofers.com to get a look at them.

fabulousfrankie Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 I'd look into dual 16-46PC Plus' or dual 20-39PC Plus'. With the 20-39PC Plus' you can change experiment between a 20hz and 16hz tune by inserting one port plug, I dont' see much value in inserting a port on the 16-46PC Plus. If your room isn't too large, a 20-39PC Plus could probably extend to 16hz even with the 20hz tune. My room is small and my subs are tuned ~16hz but I've measured a flat response out to 12-13hz.

prodj101 Posted October 19, 2003 Share Posted October 19, 2003 why not just get the dual CS ultra package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLG Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 For $2500 you are really close to 2 PB2+'s. Can't beat that combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the B4+ is the best SVS makes right now. If I'm not mistaken, it goes for close to 4 big ones with amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With everything there are tradeoffs, the 16-46PC Plus gives good extension but lack total SPL when compared to their 20-39PC Plus and 25-31PC Plus counterparts. If you're looking for the ultimate in extensions, then get the 16-46PC Plus, if you're looking for the most output then get the 25-31PC Plus, if you want a mix of both then the 20-39PC Plus is the right one to look at. This is all going by your given criteria of must be a tube with a built in amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odiedarklord Posted October 21, 2003 Author Share Posted October 21, 2003 ok one last question tube vs the pb+ which one is better in terms of total package Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankhokie Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 copperas cove huh, i left the hood (actually killeen) in 2001...anyway, tubes - one driver per tube (3 drivers to choose from - with/without amp) pb2 plus - comes with 2 db-12 drivers and amp built in if you match 2 of the plus model tubes w/amps, i believe you have a 2-3db gain over the pb2 plus. the best thing i ever did was drop an email to tom, the "v" in svs, and tell him how you like your bass, what you listen to most, and a room description (like volume in cu ft or measurements, large openings, carpeting, etc) tom is great to work with and in my case, suggested a less expensive sub for my room than i was planning on buying. he will honestly tell you what you need and what will be overkill. with svs, you can easily overpower your other speakers if you go too beefy...okay time for me to stop being an svs salesman seriously, drop him an email and he usually will respond in a couple of hours during the day. he will settle your needs and tell you what is best for you and your wallet. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
