@zgas-music In room my Hsu easily does 16 Hz. :)
Pro/Studio Subwoofers
Anyone try pro subwoofers in their HiFi system from the likes of Genelec, Dynaudio, Adam, etc? In some cases (e.g., Dynaudio 18s) they seem like a good value - this sub has opposing 9.5 inch woofers and purports to go down to 16hz +/- 3 db for under 2k, though it only weighs less than 50 lbs. Or the Genelec 7370a which is more expensive at $4k but has a 12 inch woofer and weighs over 100 lbs, but has tons of connectivity options and DSP included. Just curious what experience people have with HiFi, and if the subs are worth looking at before shelling out cash for a REL, JL, etc. which I think have started to get expensive in the last 5-10 years on the home audio inflation curve.

I think you may be happier with good value home subs like Hsu or SVS. For more, look here:

While I find the JL brand impressive, especially the room correction, for my modest needs they are far too overbuilt. I can get excellent results with a new sub from SVS or Hsu and an EQ. |
