Subwoofer to mate with Casta model C's.......

@Shiva, where can I find a Seaton dealer in U.S. or Canada?

@M-db, do you think running the subs speaker connectors to the speakers allows for better blending with the mains? In my case with the Casta C's the bass driver is very fast and acurate. I would need a subwoofer(s) that can achieve the lower octaves - 30-5hz with the same acuracy as the Casta's.

I may look at the Danley subs if they have a scaled down horn that is wife friendly. If you could see the Casta C's in gloss brown grain you would be in awwwww....

I have looked at the latest Seaton submersible sub and it is very nice but the pricing is well over $3000 for dual 15's in one box. I think if the Danley's have something in that range I would be done and not need another. I don't think the JTR's look as nice as they have a commercial look to them(not my cup of tea or my wifes).

@Bob_reynolds, what do you think of the new Goldenear Supersub XXL? To me it looks like a great contender at $1999US. It would match the Castas well in the piano black but not available till late this year.

I've had a SVS PB13Ultra in piano black recently(sold) and I found with movies it hit the bottom octaves very well but music just couldn't keep up with my other Casta model D8's(2x8"woofers in each). I now have the model C's(15" woofers in each) which definitely hit down to 30ish but I still want the lower end. When I mentioned speed/acuracy of woofer relates to timing of the driver. The Castas are very tight and acurate to 30hz giving the sealed cabinet and custom made horns and drivers. I don't believe any sub can be as acurate as a floorstanding driver in its same driver size. But that's just my opinion from experiences. Since these Casta model C's(28,000) I've got dynamics, speed, acuracy, dimensiality and soundstage I've never reached before. The Svs SB13 ultra looks like a fantastic sub too but I would need to run two of them. I will specify on going sealed as I ran the pb13 ultra in sealed mode.

The Seaton Submersive F2 HP is also sealed with 2x15" drivers. And supposedly reaches 5hz. Two would be crazy and they aren't cheap - $2800 each. I could get two Svs SB13 ultra for $3000 shipped. I may contact someone at Danley to see what they think of my set-up.

I just know the subwoofer wasn't accurate. The timing wasn't the same from what I heard with the Casta's. I have good equipment running in my system and I know what it wasn't.

Thx Bob. I am waiting to speak with Danleysound to look into a DTS-10 to mate with my Casta C's. If the price suits my budget I will go with them. If not I think two SVS SB13 ultras may be the next trial-as they have a 45 day trial.

I've been researching, anyone try(have) a Revel B15(A)? I think this is the sub for me. The hookup is the way I need to run with my fast drivers in my Casta's. Hoping I can find one.

Bill, I used to have a SVS PB13 ultra because of wanting a sealed sub and eventually two. At the time I had Casta model D8's and didn't need the sub after getting the model C's. Now I want to integrate the Casta C's with a faster sub. The Revel B15A seems to have better versatility with blending with the mains which I need. The Casta model C's are very dynamic, fast and accurate to 30HZ. If I find one Revel B15, I will then get another later. My room later will be 22x25x8. That's 4400Sq feet. I'll need two. I do agree with your suggestion about two SB13 Ultras. I just think the 15" driver will play lower for the movie section and dig deeper than my mains as they too have 15" paper drivers in each of them. Very tight, articulate and accurate in a sealed floorstander. They are amazing.
