Those are clearly facts that you cannot seem to show it seems...those have been called " alternative facts" most recently I think..nod

You have stated you have experience with the " majority of Best Buy employees", so I cannot speak from a level of experience of over 50,000 people


However..I guess I travel in the circle and know people that are most concerned with better sound quality as their prime motivator for selection

So the tested/actual/published figures for jitter, distortion and noise floor for the Denon X3800 , making it a " not recommended" piece would be a concern and one that I dont know how you would fix

In fact , according to the test evaluator, the X3800 showed a step backward " regression " in factual testing results then went further on to explain the concerns with design and build quality

Buy hey...you you do...Smilie
Don't get mad at me if you disagree with those "facts", they are not mine!

You are the one that said the Onkyo makes a "great per/pro" even though you admitted those "facts" say it's "not recommended" as one! Dontknow

I never disagree with facts...cited that many times

I just question your myriad of statements/beliefs such as " coming to your own conclusions" and your experience with the " majority of Best Buy employees"...nod

Use the rest of my statement...and it aligns with the facts and I even provided what I would do to solve the " Not recommended" issue for the Onkyo/Pioneer

But you never answered my question about what you would do to address the Jitter, distortion issues with the Denon X3800 which, according to reviewer, was related to its design and build quality issues
This all coming from a source that you have cited as litmus test of performance..EEK!


Its interesting that you keep deflecting....Applause



Again..you do you

Hmmm deflecting...... Like continuing to bring up the 3800 review regarding the Onkyo review! Scratchhead

"Facts" measured and reviewed the Onkyo as a pre/pro and stated it's "not recommended" as one and that "aligns with the facts" that it's a "great pre/pro"! Scratchhead
You "fixed" the "facts" by adding an "external amp"! OK!!! Teehee

Let's not forget the bigger disadvantage & issues those "facts" pointed to regarding the Onkyo as a pre/pro, those internal amps running while that external amp does! No fix! Bye

I purchased a PB-2000. Its amazing... but HUGE. I had no idea this thing was the size of a coffee table!! lol

My AV rack is in another room for my Den/Media Room. When we gutted the room we put the sub connection in the wall in the rear of the room back to my receiver in the other room. Everywhere I am reading online showing it should be up front near the TV... Since this thing is huge, I'd rather it be in the front of the room.

Question: Has anyone used audio over ethernet solutions for a sub? I have extra ethernet available I could use if this is possible.

The second question: Does anyone know of a wireless solution I can use with my receiver in the AV rack in the other room to get the signal to a "receiver" end at my sub? I would need one w/o line of sight.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

The two users arguing back and forth, do us all a favor and take it to PMs. No cares about the pointless back and forth which has nothing to do with the deal.

Already have one Subwoofer.

what is good? whether
1 PB2000 or
2 PB1000?
Dual PB-1000 should probably be slightly better assuming you have plenty of space for both subwoofers. However, one PB-2000 is totally fine, and you can also do that and consider upgrading to a dual PB-2000 down the line. Either way, you have the option to upgrade/replace/swap with SVS. I personally have Dual PB-2000, and that sounds great.

If you pair cashback deals, it should be better to go with the PB-2000. Capital One gave me a 21% offer. If you can get that or similar, that $200 price difference would be <$160.

I am back to home theater after more than a decade. Smilie
I will wait for additional deals (from CC or SVS itself).

I've had many subs over the years and the PB-2000 has been my favorite. Very clean, hits deep and just SUPER reliable. It sounds great with HT and music as well. Hasn't missed a beat in 7+ years. It sounds WAY better in a corner facing the wall/sideways than it does firing forward, especially in a large space. Good deal at $599, not much else at that price that competes…

Whatever you do, avoid Polk and Monolith. Polk uses sub-par amps/subwoofers (I've had several) and Monolith uses unreliable amplifiers, also Monoprice will only replace the whole unit if defective (can't buy parts, have to ship entire sub) and their CS is AWFUL. I've barely used my Monolith and it has had tons of issues…SVS supposedly has awesome CS, but thankfully I've never needed it…

As far as an actual good subwoofer/good price/good service/warranty I don't think you can beat these svs outlet sales.

Interesting, I gotta try this out. Do you have it completely facing sideways or at an angle towards the side? Also how much space do you have between the front and the wall?

I have one in an 18x18 room and although solid, have never been blown away by it. I haven't had time to do any room treatments though so I've chalked it up to that. But it always bugged me that a family member's soundbar setup (although a premium one with a Sony HT-ST5000 [sonypremiumhome.com]) seemed to hit harder even in his huge untreated, 18ft ceiling open family room.

Bass in theory is omnidirectional and facing shouldn't matter.

That said, you'll find 100 links saying it does matter, but half'll say face toward the listener, half will say face the wall, and the third half will tell you to buy a downward firing one LMAO


Ultimately sub placement regardless of facing will be hugely YMMV from one room to another.


Also if you're saying the sub on that Sony system felt like it was hitting harder than your PB2000 there's something badly, badly, wrong with your setup. Like, "are you sure the SVS is turned on" bad.

That sony sub is 30 watts.
