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