Sub suggestions


Hi all,

I've decided to go with a new sub - finally. As of now I'm running Reference 3A de Capo BE's powered by an LSA Statement integrated and have an ancient Velodyne 8" CHT sub.

What're good recommendations for a sub-$1000 (new or used) sub or pair of subs? I listen mainly to jazz, folk-rock, and occasional good rock and ambient techno on a mix of cd and vinyl, but nothing too heavy in the bass area. I have a small, small listening room for the next few years, but have bass traps.

Thank you
simao

"Again, ported or sealed?"

Sorry. SB = Sealed Box, PB = Ported Box

So sealed most likely will yield better results for music, IMO.

"So - if I went with the SVS sb 1000 - should I get ported or sealed? My listening room is fairly small."

If music is your main focus with this rig, the the SB1000 would be the better option. If HT, the the PB1000.

Personally, I would go with the SB2000.
