Velodyne HGS Series 1 vs Series 2


Anybody out there "in the know" on what the difference(s) is/are in the Velodyne HGS "Series 1" subwoofers and the new "Series II"? My theater room has an HGS-12 "series 1" sub, and I was curious what has been changed in the latest generation, and how the change(s) affect performance.

Thanks in advance.

Here's what the "expert" at Velodyne says:
***********************************************
Performance is the same. Over a four year period there were many modifications made to the amplifier to make it more reliable and in some instances to make it quieter. So in January 2002 we designated the units Series II.

Thanks,

My opinion is that they were trying to fix the problems that were making the sub blow up. If you read audioreview.com you will see that they had a lot of problems with the early models.
