skillet2003 Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Much like everyone else they want a big bang for the buck, I being no different than anyone else I would like the same. I'm looking for a good performing subwoofer with good performance at 20hz and it would be a great plus to even go further. I'm think no more than $1200 (may be flexible) and have been considering SVS PBS2+ and HSU VTF-3 MK 2. I'm a newb when it comes to this stuff but I'm trying to learn and get started on my collection of speakers Maybe one day be able to boast as many subs as I hear the ear has....probably not but its worth a try.

Colin Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 When it come to bang for the buck in subs, you are in my league, here is what I said: http://forums.klipsch.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=34246&forumID=73&catID=19&search=1&searchstring=&sessionID={4147DD6C-6450-4CBC-AD7F-9202D5339125} (Klipsch KSW series subs are cheap for what they do) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay481985 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 or do what formica did and make a av-15 that was a beautiful subwoofer you made, can you post more pics? since now i bet you placed it pefectly and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
formica Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Thanks Jay... It's definitely cheaper if you don't cost your time (which is unfair)... but one of my principal considerations was to be able to match the looks and output of my heritage klipsch. I succeeded is achieving that... but a part of me still wants more overkill... For those who want a link to the Klipsch forum thread... it's at AV15 sub is ready... I will get a real web page about it, online, sooner or later... with the construction pics.... but I have been quite busy lately... Rob PS: BTW... "more" overkill as when I pushed the sub close to it's maximum SPL, I got 119.5db at 20Hz (corrected in room, fast "C") before clipping and without bottoming out.

I am really, really interested in seeing the process. Possibly you could provide us newb's with detailed information each step along the way? I am thinking about the diy route eventually, but in no hurry. Projector first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
