QUOTE(ronnt88 @ Oct 4 2009, 09:01 PM)  after getting this sub my pocket become peasant too  bro, after having lunch with svs boss just now, I understand now why super subs (those USD2k above) although expensive and have very good response curve still need the EQ1 to be "perfect" .. luckily I dun have super sub, so not poison by that reasoning yet..

QUOTE(arj @ Oct 4 2009, 10:01 PM) Swapped my Velo with the SVS and did some quick testing. No tweaking yet. With the Velo, during the Skidoosh scene in Kung Fu Panda, I was like "Mehh... nothing to shout about". With the SVS, it was like "FUYYYOOOHHHH!"  Plus my dad came rushing into the room and was like "wadafak wuz dat?!?!?"  wow..  soon many velo owners jump ship to next level liao..

QUOTE(htkaki @ Oct 4 2009, 11:32 PM) Can be better with AS-EQ1 eh  No question abt Submersive. Good sub. It's quite a lenghty discussion over the issue of subs in a given environment. Frankly speaking, I thought my system was good (not great). Then came the 'wake-up call' of then plotted graph. WTF... with those valleys?!  Peaks still negligible. In came the AS-EQ1. Did it up and voila....... I was like  Now, I am a bit fussy towards sound liao  I think you should poison mpyw...since he got this sub cheap..so got some budget leftover.. haha!

QUOTE(anfieldude @ Oct 5 2009, 06:42 PM) 2nd chart : Ron's room is pretty difficult and probably needs to be redone after Audyssey. If still not able might need an AS-EQ1 one to improve on this. His lower frequencies barely settle down at 300ms. In fact they linger around for as long as 1s. In fact at 16Hz there is a pickup after 300ms that u cannot see. I believe I need to redo this with the Galaxy. I also believe this will improve after 2nd round of Audyssey. If this cannot be corrected, then a AS-EQ1 is necessary for further accuracy.  bos, this chart, is it possible to make the Z axis until 1000ms ? (current max from 0-300ms only) cos still lots of low Hz bass lingering after 300ms.. I think need EQ1 to test test.. (ask maxx to pinjam 1 unit..  ) This post has been edited by ar188: Oct 5 2009, 11:52 PM

QUOTE(htkaki @ Oct 5 2009, 11:58 PM) Later, kena again like in SVS Prod Launch thread. "Eh, mana bass? No syiok." LOL..... I don't blame them as we grew up loving bass that basically does a lot of colouration tothe original recording. Not easy to change that. But, then again, personal taste. I knew ron is after near perfection as almost all of us in this page do. Will arrange for that when time permits. yeah, like how some people like artifical LCD colors on the display floor.. rather than calibrated D6500 video..
