kelA Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 For starters, what is your budget, and how big is your listening area? That should get the ball rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcon20x Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Kela asked the right questions, but I'll go ahead and speak from experience. I must first say that my HT room is fairly small (10x14) so keep that in mind when you are reading my statment. The rsw 12 is a nice addition to the already good bass of the rf 83's. My Sw 15 is to much and I find my self turning it off most of the time, I do keep the RSW 12 about 1/3 to 1/2 of the volume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUB Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Would spend $3000 or so for something good..........Room is 14X24 almost 10 foot ceiling. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUB Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Here good things about that JL F113.....but it's not cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian_Dude Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 LOL! I looked at the JL Audio Gotham g213 and its ridiculous. $11k and 360lbs holy cow. 3800 Watts, 2 13.5" Drivers. Looks purdy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUB Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 What about the F-113.......How much did you see it for CAN $$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 The only reason to consider the F113 is if a small enclosure is somehow vitally important. If you can afford a bigger sub, then there is way better potential available. I guess really the question is "how much do aesthetics override performance?"

AUB Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 What sub would you suggest ?........Servo 15.......Klipsch RT-12d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BobG Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 A key characteristic of the RT-12 (and RT-10) is its ability to seamlessly blend with the main speakers. This is partly due to the advanced room correction and partly to the other design parameters. If you value seamlessness, especially for music listening, the RT's should be on your short list.
