Non SVS subs with app or remote?


I love my SVS SB16s but would like something a little better for music. I'm also addicted to the app and can't fathom getting up to change volume/phase etc.. I love being able to immediately hear the difference in my listening position.  I know the higher-end REL's have a remote but is anyone else making a sub as good or better than the SVS with an app or remote?

@missioncoonery  a couple of things about this line of reasoning.

1. getting it integrated properly is much easier making tweaks from the listening position as opposed to getting up/down multiple times to make minor adjustments.  Each time you do that, you alter your hearing perception - i.e. your brains capacity to remember what it heard a minute ago suffers.  But yes, over a long period of time, this can certainly be done.  But almost none of us have set-it-and-forget-it for long before making changes.. what we thought was the pinnacle of integration a month ago often changes...

2. I use mine for music and movies and they often require changes in volume depending on the soundtrack's recording, time of day (who's asleep in the house), and other variables.  I don't like adjusting my subs volume/phase etc from within my receiver - that's a beating and it only affects movies/tv..  Whereas tweaks from the app/sub apply the changes to both music and movies accordingly..  I use HT bypass so that's why I say that.
