Hmm very tempting. I got an offer for PB12-NSD for RM 3k - 2 weeks old. I wonder which should I get?

Can someone advice me? my room is about 15feet x 12 feet x 10 feet.

Hmmm I think I answered my question on what sub to get. Check out the comprehensive subwoofer test below

And check out the SVS PB12-NSD

http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/sub...12-nsd-new.html

It goes down to 15Hz with ease!!

Now that's what I call a subwoofer!

Wow very good price. Anyway I will be going down to Singapore this saturday to pick up my pb12-NSD. Hopefully its as good as they claim to be.

blush.gif I didn't poison you guys, right? But, it is indeed a GOOD sub, if not excellent.
Probably around RM3K - RM3.4k range. Still waiting for final confirmation.

I'm staying in Klang. You are always free to come by and do the comparison. But I live in a condo now and don't have a dedicated HT room. Not really good for testing. I will be moving to my new place by September and there will be a dedicated room for my HT then.

New?
elmer where do you stay. if you're in KL we can compare them later on.

Just got my PB12-NSD from Singapore on Saturday. Had to bring an SUV to pick it up. The thing is HUGE!!! I can't imagine how the ultra and the plus series will look since its bigger. I now have a very nice coffee table in my house.

I tested it yesterday and it brought me to another level of movie watching. You really ARE in the movie now. I didn't know there was so much bass in all the movies and it provided a heightened feeling of being engulfed by sound even though I'm in an open living hall. Just like SVS claimed, it was rattling my sliding doors during the strong bass scenes. I can hear my neighbours complaining now.... hahaha.

It was a good haul from Singapore. My 2 friends brought back a Marantz 6003 amp, a pair of Dynaudio book shelf, Dynaudio centre and a Marant 8002 CD player. Customs were to busy talking to one another... hahaha.

Very good deal. I had to go down all the way to Singapore to get my PB12-NSD, but it was all worth it. And good thing lepas ketam also... haha
