SVS-PB12-Plus upgrade...

[laneza01]

I have that sub now, and im thinkin i might need an upgrade soon here. it shakes the house thats for sure...i just feel like i might need a little more. now im not trying to ADD a sub, being that i dont have a ton of money, but thinkin bout selllin my SVS and buyin somethin a tad bigger. Do you think that maybe replacing it with a ED A7S - 450(with the bigger amp I guess???) would make a whole lot of difference? I think i would get more output, loooking at numbers, but maybe a little less low extension, as i have the SVS set at the 16hz extension mode? Would anyone recommend this? I guess im sorta directing this at TheEAR, as he always recommends the ED subs, and knows everything about subs... What do you think? Or should I just bite the bullet and spend the extra $600 and get the next biggest one??? the A7 - 450? Thanks. (note i have the 12.2 driver now and bout this sub in about September of 07.)

SVS would probably recommend to try your sub in 20Hz mode. It will still play well into the teens and give you a slightly higher total SPL output.

Have you thought about going with the PB13-Ultra?

Yeah, I should try that I suppose. I would consider the ultra except its about $700 more then the ED A7S ($300 more then the A7)..and a tad bit outta my budget...I really dont care about "looks" so to speak, as I live with just myself and my roomate in a "college house" so to speak and I guess I figured I pay a little for the "nice" look of the SVS sub. (I bought the Piano Gloss just because the flat black was sold out and it had the PeQ, haha which i never used, oddly enough. oh and DIY isn't really an option, as I'm not at all gifted in that respect nor have the tools.
