| Subwoofer for classical music listener Now retired, I was a professional classical musician (pianist.)Having played in many instrumental combinations and performed in and attended countless orchestral concerts, I well know what real instruments sound like.I simply want to enhance my al... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Yogiboy, thanks for pointing it out and thank you for the encouragement too! | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Btw, I was in error. The SVS SB-2000 is NOT ported?The SP-2000 is ported. | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Stfoth. Thanks for the encouragement !I did a long time ago own a Carver Sunfire sub with a small good quality tube amplifier (can't remember the name -- very sweet sounding). Problem was a big hole in the middle of the sonic spectrum. Lows were t... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Last couple of posts very discouraging!Well, at least I have 45 days to experiment and decide.I love my system just the way it is for classical. Only want to get those lower octaves.If the sub starts to harm a hair on the head of my system, it's ... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: I'm just as happy to have a new sub instead of the very well worn used one, of which I'm sure I would be the third owner. | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener I called SVS an they assured me the SB-2000 has the same line level input (47K) as the 1000, so I ordered it.Thanks everyone for your help (especially Al) in choosing a subwoofer.I hope this one works out.Richard | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: I notice the SVS-SB 2000 is only $200 more. My room is about 575sq ft.the 1000 is recommended for small to medium sized rooms. The 2000 is ported.Is the 2000 a match for my amp as well as the 1000?Sorry to keep bothering you! | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: Thank you for the time and effort you've put into this.I notice the SVS-SB1000 sells for about $500.Can the quality at this price level be any good?Or should I look further? | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: Thanks again for your help.The preamp is a vintage CJ P11 tube model.i don't really know what modifications were done except that I sent it out not working and it came back sounding better than ever. I don't know what they did, if anything, t... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener I've found out the hard way that I'm extremely limited in what kind of subwoofer I can match to my NuForce class D monoblock amps. If you've followed this thread you've read that the Vandersteen sub I bought was incompatible with my amps and coul... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: you are a lifesaver!!i just spoke with the NuForce technician and he confirmed what you said.I can't use the Vandersteen with my amps.Thank the heavens I didn't blow the amps. They seem to be working fine.Again thanks a million!!! | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Al: Thank you so much for your input.Before I obtained the sub I spoke to the NuForce technician who modified the amps and told him I was adding a subwoofer. He didn't raise any objections.Hopefully he knew of the problem. I'll call him todayI... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener After much difficulty I finally got to set up my used 2Wq sub only to find that the left channel doesn't work. I followed the directions in the manual exactly in setting up the wx-2 variable crossover, matching it to my amp. I checked all the conn... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener Gdnrbob: Thank you so much for your post and your offer!I only just emailed the question of whether I can run the signal without a crossover to Vandersteen. The 2Wq's are coming with crossovers of 200 k.my amplifier's impedance is only 22k.Can yo... |
