Subs

[harold280z]

Looking for a new sub for my bedroom I now have a polk PSW10 sounds just a little weak no punch. I like my bass tight, clean & loud. I'd like a sub with a small footprint.I'm thinking that maybe the Velodyne SPL 1000 or Velodyne Mini Vee will work.Giving me more punch. I'm looking for some options.My room size 12x18 my current system is :
My set up is the following
Bedroom sounds!
Pioneer Elite Receiver VSX82TXS
Pioneer Elite DVD DV-46AV
Sony Bravia 40XBR1
Motorola DCT-6412 Digital Cable Box With DVR
Polk RTi 8's front
Polk T20e rear
Polk RM 202 center
Polk PSW 10 sub

Thanks for the input. That Mimi Vee looks to me in my price range. Might still go up to the spl 1000 if I can get a good deal. I'm running the sub on coaxle, long run inside a wall.

I have one question: Why would you buy a "SUB"woofer that only goes down to 28Hz? That is the published lower extension on the minivee.

For the same price you can get a number of SVS subs with much greater range, and output. Call Erik at SVS and discuss your requirements with him.

FWIW, I have both a Minivee and a couple of SVS subs. The one thing I don't like about the minivee is the auto-on doesn't kick in as early as I'd like. It is a nice little sub, but it doesn't go down into real sub territory.

Go for the new svs sb12 sub. I am thinking about getting it as an upgrade for my bedroom system. Kicks mini vees ass.

I don't think any SVS ahs a small foot print. Do they?

The new SB12 has a foot print of only 15" x 14" x 14" and only weighs 40lbs.

I have been considering changing my subs around. I have the spl1000 2. I have no where to listen to the svs..any comparison?

It's slightly bigger, will get down to 20hz in small to medium sized rooms, sealed, PEQ, balanced, unbalanced, no remote, several finishes. Unfortunately only obtainable through SVS...$700-850 depending on finish. SQ should be similar to the SPL 1200. If you need a small footprint sub this is a great alternative.

Thanks for all the help, I've hear the Slp's 800 & 1000 but I got the martin logan dynamo, it sounded very tight. I'll let you know how it works!
