I’ve a pair of Rhythmic F12SE used with single driver Voxativ Ampeggio speakers. Front end is Revox A810 RTR and Dr. Feickert TT with Ikeda and Dynavector MC cartridges. Integration was easy and the results are detailed and musical. The Rhythmic F12s don’t thump playing either jazz or R&B.
Accurate and revealing subwoofer
Hello, new to home audio, I would need some help to spot an accurate / revealing / dynamic subwoofer under $1500. It would pair a JL audio Dominion D110.
It has to be less powerfull because the room side to fill with is quite difficult with some bass frequency accumulation at the ceiling level. I am applying some room correction though with Roon's DSP engine.
Here is a short list by now:
- REL HT (1003 ou 1205, yes, I am avoiding passive radiators)
- M&K V10 or V10+
- Dynaudio 9s
- Genelec 7050C
any other sub experimented in this category ? or should I stick to the exact same Dominion?
Context :
- living in Europe
- 30 m2 room (200 inch, L shape)
- Davis Acoustics Courbet 5 speaker (down to 50hz, bright, high and mid ranges detailed)
Thanks.

Any experience with some Bowers & Wilkins DB4S or Dynaudio 9s?
To sum up, the options to be considered:
Room frequencies correction:
Thank you |
I have the the Dynadio 18s - dual opposed 8.75 in drivers in a sealed box I like it a lot. To me it sounds very musical. and it reaches down well below 30 hz $1800 in the US The dual opposed drivers mean zero vibration is transmitted through the floor

Why do you want a revealing subwoofer? Your your main speakers should be able to handle lower level bass detail and then the sub fills everything out. Maybe you have tiny subwoofer speakers. No less than 12 inch diameter should be used for a sub. Subs became popular when the bass quality of Main speakers began to deteriorate in the industry because the driver sizes were reduced. So now people bought subwoofers. Older speakers you’ll notice have larger Drive sizes. |
