Yeah, we eagerly await your pictures on Wed!

Eh, haven't you seen all the updates and pics? SVS 1st and 2nd shipment has landed here and htkaki is the local dealer.

I see the SVS poison is very strong...

Actually they can calculate the tax early on (even before touch down). All the info they need is in the airway bill and accompanying invoice, which the local office can receive by email from the sending office.

So ronnt, is the tax calculated ok? Sometimes ketam have their own funny ideas...

Velo DD has the equalization function, but cannot generate the graph.

I checked again and I think you're right. The DD can generate a graph. The sub has a video out jack.

Here's an example of how the DD graph looks like:

That is my understanding.

However, usually the EQ has limited boost (+) so if you have a deep valley it cannot bring it up totally to flat. This is where positioning and bass traps come in.

Yup, that's all true.

So in the end we still need to do proper positioning, room treatment and EQ if we want the best graph.

If you have a valley then a boost is needed. Boosting means pushing the sub driver harder and this will require more watts from the amp. It's just like turning up the volume on your sub, except this is specific to particular frequencies where the valley exists.

I like that solution! Apart from helping with freq response, also gives more headroom.

Wah, arrived ahead of schedule.

No need to run Audyssey first. Just fire it up and do a test run as is. Make sure everything is working. Do the fine tuning later.

I suspect you'll be sleeping late tonight... and maybe your neighbours will be cursing you too

I thought you already applied for leave?

I'm sure you can extract even more performance with careful positioning and then with Audyssey. Don't worry now you got all the time ahead of you to fine tune it.

Thanks for the pics. It's one big sub isn't it?



I guess your placement options are rather limited. Nevertheless, congrats again and enjoy!

How did you ground the plate amp?

Hey ronn, your place now become bass mecca... all of us want to make pilgrimage there...

When you say 'close to reference' you mean the volume on your AVR near to 0 dB?

That would be plenty loud. The 'skidoosh' scene should sound massive at that volume. I only play that around -20 dB volume on my 876 and the bass is palpable.

You mean the previous Canton sub or the 12Q? For the Canton, yes I imagine it cannot deliver that scene. As for the 12Q (which I also had before) it can part deliver that scene.

I imagine the Submersive is very powerful, so even if you turn down the sub volume knob the level is quite strong (hence the Audyssey sub trim is at -9 dB). This factor is quite dependent on each sub.

To me it's not crucial for the sub trim to be within +/- 3 dB. My Rythmik is on -10 dB sub trim.

Oh yeah, would love to see REW curves for the Submersive. If you can, do some curves before and after Audyssey.
