I have an SVS PB13 Ultra in black gloss with Casta Acoustic D8 floorstanding speakers and they blend perfectly. I run it at 80hz crossover and maybe 2 on the dial with all ports plugged. Just stunning. Mind you I had a $600 Hifi Pyon Mythology sub platform madeI for it because the little rubber feet did nothing for it. Now the pitch is perfect, tight and well tuned. I would go for either SVS. You can't go wrong. Good luck!
Svs sub : should i go with sb13 ultra or pb 13
Hi, guys. In a hifi perspective, what is better : sealed subwoofer (sb13 ultra - svs) or ported sub (pb13 ultra - svs) ?
In general, a sealed sub is considering more linear.... But in the same time stereophile considered the ported sub sp13-ultra really good.... I am confused.
What is your opinion or experience on this subjet ?

I had two SB-2000's and they hit low with those rumbly notes that seem to crawl around on the floor when you encounter them - but I never quite got them to integrate well with my Buchardt S400's. I got a REL T/7i and quickly had it dialed in. It doesn't rattle the walls or the dishes so you do lose that swampy bottom if that's what you look for. |
Read this. It has been the most informative concerning subs that I have been able to find, to date. https://soundoctor.com/whitepapers/subs.htm |
