Your room is quite large. I recommend two REL S3 SHO's to play in stereo and to fill space without having to push too much. I did this in a room 13.5" x 18.5'.

Subwoofer advice
Dear @pkatsuleas : Inside your budget and with good quality performance the @instlouis advise is with out doubt the best one. At your room/system seant position you need only two subs You can try the Golden Ear units for you can have first hand experiences in your room/system. One advantage in the GE subs is that comes with high-pass filter for the Snell stays focus in all frequencies but the low bass and in this way the Snell IMD ( intermodulation distortion. ) will goes down and this permits that the overall system ( speakers/subs/roo. ) shines as never before. I think you will be satisfied with. Then in the future and after your learning self experiences with subs you can up-grade it with better quality subwoofers because not all subs sounds the same, exist quality grades in between.

+1 @rauliruegas OP - My room is 14.4x24 and the GE Forcefield 3's at 50% provide respectful and tight bass . and Don't know where you're located, but my GE dealer is Speaker & Stereo Store here in St Louis. Wylie Williams has taken care of me for many years and I highly recommend him . http//www.speakerandstereostore.com/ |
Thanks very much to all of the bassheads! Great info pretty much in sync with what I've been researching. A bunch of good suggestions. Seems like the consensus is 2 subs for my size room - makes sense. Always wanted to hear Audiokinesis' stuff. Unfortunately way out of my budget at this time. Basically, I have around $1500 to blow. Was thinking a sub and DAC (see other thread in digital). Really need to get up to speed with digital. So, its a balancing act. I started out thinking better sub and an inexpensive DAC like a Dragonfly. Now I'm leaning towards spending a bit more on a good dac/streamer. As far as the subs go, there are two local on CL that seem promising - a HSU vtf-3 mk-4 and a SVS pc-2000. Any opinions there? Really just want to experiment and start with one before jumping into 2 subs and a high pass filter (pretty sure I will get there eventually!). I have had good luck with used in the past and it has given me good bang for my buck. Thanks again |
