Why so? Are the SB12/PB12 NSD generally better than their SB/PB-2000 counterparts even though they're older?

Note this is the SB-2000, not the "pro", meaning it doesn't have the newer amp, driver, and phone control DSP. Still a great deal, just don't get the two confused.

So I was originally going to buy the PB-1000 ($499) for our media room. The room is only 11'x18 and 8 feet high, and I don't have a lot of space for a sub. Will mainly use for movies.

Would you recommend sticking with PB-1000 or moving up to 2000 line? Thanks.

ETA: Crutchfield also has this sale if you prefer to buy from them.

Buy the PB2000 now or wait for an outlet deal on it?

I disagree stay far away from getting (2) sb-1000's! Trust me on this... Either go with pb-2000 or 2 of them~!

Ok thanks! Take this rep I don't need it anymore. Got two PB2000 7.2. Now I have to hide the mail from my wife.

Having trouble deciding between 2 PB2000 vs 1 Monolith 15".. Dedicated home theater with dimensions of 13'x19'. Any suggestions?

would I need two of them (PB-2000) for a basement setup with normal ceiling heights and lets say 11 * 18 room

or should I just order 1?

I thought there was some 5% discount code for going duals ?

Since you asked the question, I think you will not need it

Even otherwise, based on that room size, I don't think you need 2. My friend has one, which he uses it in a larger room; and the room literally shakes at 50%.

Check also what SVS' customer support say (they are very responsive for online chats).

If you ask in these forums, people will say 2xPB16-Ultra or bust. I don't know what type of houses they live in, to be honest

I have PB-1000, SVS-Prime towers and center in a much larger room, and I am very happy with them. At 50% I could feel the shake even before I bought those towers and center.

Right. You can always preorder the RSL though. But I just wanted to know the general opinion between the two because I'm a first timer when it comesto building an HT system. So there's really no notable cons for the SVS compared to the RSL?

I haven't heard the RSL, but I'm an svs fan. I have a 7.2.4 HT consisting of
Ultra towers
Ultra center
Ultra bookshelves
Prime bookshelves
Prime elevations
And PB-2000's

I'm never changing my set up, unless it's to upgrade subs which I absolutely do not need to in my size room, 16x20x8.5.

Just based on the specs, I would say there's no con except the $100 more, but it's worth every penny. A 10" sub is never going to do what a 12" sub can.

The only reason I would go with 1 sub over 2 is if the 2 wouldn't hit a minimum frequency I was looking for. I'd much rather have 2 subs in a home theater, especially if there are going to be multiple people watching things in it since it will even out the bass response throughout the room.
