Yep, I'm sure SVS fans will downvote but the fact is you can get two 16" Klipsch rp1600sw(well reviewed) and for less than the price of one of these when on sale. So I'd say that's pretty hard to beat. I just run one rp1400sw and that thing just pounds. I can't imagine two of the 16" in my house unless I want to redo all my walls.
Just want to add that HSU is good competition with their 15" subs for less money.
Believe it or not, I was going to write the exact same thing when i wrote my prior post!!! Then I was like nahhhh, don't want to deal w/ the svs fan boys!!! lol.. Truth is you can get two RP-16's for less then one pb-16 when the Rp's are on sale and still have a ton $$$ leftover and the 2 RP16's will take out the pb-16.

It's about time after all these years of crap Klipsch subs and there horrible AMP failures, crap 2 year warranties, that they finally put out a sub class that has a real good amp, great drivers and a proper 5 year warranty at a fantastic price esp when on sale. Honestly the biggest value in subs now.. Good for Klipsch & the consumer!, Someone finally WOKE UP in the Klipsch R&D/Executive dept & gave us the RP sub line!!!

They do go on sale every few months. Just need to wait it out a bit and then jump on the deal. With Black Friday coming up, I'd say they will come out with another sale. I bought the rp1400sw for the 699 price but then the rp1600sw went down to $899. If the rp1600sw was on sale at the time I bought rp1400sw, I would have opted for the rp1600sw. I've learned that with subwoofers it's best to get the best you can afford and when in doubt to get one or two, it's better to get one good one and then save up for another one down the road. Of course if budget is not a concern then hell go nuts with SVS or even fully marty lol. There's also another option that I might have considered if they were in stock at the time are the two 12" RSL speedwoofers. I haven't looked too much into them but people do tend to like them for the price.

The PB-16 is a beast, I really like it. It's probably the best subwoofer I've owned. Also I had a great experience with SVS customer service, so I'd love to recommend them.

After my first SB 3000 sub, I'm forever SVS for life. This subwoofer shakes the foundation of my house. When people experience my home theater, they ask what they feel, and it's the sub.

Back on topic these are great subs but for not much more money, you can get their brand new unbelievable, otherworldly 17 ultra.

When on sale, the Klipsch RP-16 is ONLY $899, I think I'll take that over a 3K+ Svs pb17. I can buy THREE Rp-16's and still have plenty of $$$ left over for dinner and a movie plus++. I run a few SVS myself so not knocking there subs just that they have lost the "value" they used to bring to subs years ago and we all know what the margins are on subs, speakers etc... HUGE!.

Plus having two subs tends to have an inherent benefit of reducing room nodes, thou it's best paired with a processor/AVR with multi-channel bass management outputs.
