SVS PB-16 Sub

A friend asked me to have a look at this Sub on line as he is considering a purchase. I'm not really into sub's, and I really couldn't find much in the way of reviews on-line. Lots of "direct to door" internet sellers, but no "Brick and Mortar" shops that I could find. I did look at a promo on You Tube, and was intrigued by the big 8 inch voice coil.

Anyone have any experience with these SVS subs? Just curious, and wondering what kind of quality this manufacturer puts into the build of their subs.

I’ve been researching subs for music. Leaning towards Sumiko for their hybrid vertical/horizontal firing pattern. Which seems to me a good way to get more out of a particular size sub and perhaps help make for smoother response in more room locations out of a single sub rather than two.

I want at least a 10" driver but can't go too big.

Others I would lean towards for music: 

Rhythmik
REL
ELAC

Have also considered many others including SVS
