What’s the rest of the equipment in your system, and do listen to 2-channel too and if so how important is that to you vs. HT.
Subwoofer suggestion
Hi,
I have a pre-amp/amp 5.1.2 setup with 200w amplifiers and B&W Speakers/Sub. Currently I have the B&W ASW610 subwoofer and looking to upgrade it to DB4S. I don't go very high in the volume and even for the current subwoofer, I feel that I barely scratched the surface with the bass. Is upgrading worth it? What difference will the DB4S sub give?
Appreciate your suggestions.

@hawkrider00 Well the 855 damn well should outperform the PC12 — you’re comparing a $3k sub to a $950 sub and inferring B&W subs are better. Apples and oranges dude. |
@hawkrider00 Here are two reviews from the same time period that quote the retail prices as $3000 and $949 for the 855 and PC12, respectively. Either way, to say the 855 outperforms the PC12 is, well, duh. https://www.kenrockwell.com/audio/b-w/asw850.htm Even at $2200, for that price you could get two SVS SB3000s. Now that’d be a more interesting, useful, and relevant comparison and truly apples to apples. |
