I have an older Velodyne 15" servo sub that has been in HT duty since about 2000. It still works, but the volume control needs attention. The volume jumps strangely with small movements and is hard to set right. If anyone knows what might need to be done, it's probably worth fixing. I believe it uses the older class A/B amp. When I recently shopped for subs for my listening room it was clear Velodyne no longer competed with many of the typical companies that now make the short list. I went with the Rythmik 12G servo subs and am thrilled. For pure HT, a ported model from many choices is no doubt a better decision today. |
kosst_amojan This is where Elon Musk is an asshat. He genuinely cannot think ... I honestly can't stand that fool. I knew he was and idiot ... All his windbag jive ... a complete idiot ... he knows nothing about much of anything. He doesn't understand ... He doesn't understand ... how stupid his hyperloop ideas are ... What a clown!Hey kosst, why so angry? Your remarks reveal much more about you than they do Elon Musk. |

@dweller I bought 2 JL F112s that both died at different times while I left them on overnight. I’ve never had that happen to any other sub. Also both JLs I had some pretty audible humming coming out of the drivers, which to me is a sign of either cheap electronics or too much internal amp gain. While I've had a few other subs that hummed slightly, if you put your ear right next to them, nothing like JLs which you could hear from several feet away. I think Rythmik and SVS are probably the two best names out there. Velodyne and JL in the past were great if you wanted excellent performance out of a compact sub...but I believe big box retail companies overcharge and also skimp on quality parts typically. Most retail companies charge multiples more than internet direct companies and have parts that cost only a fraction as much at the same time--publicly traded companies are driven by short term profit to placate shareholders. |
