I'm looking for a budget sub for a small room 9x12x9.5 ft (~1000sq ft). Is CHT-10Q good enough? I'm particularly interested in the auto-EQ. But is it good and accurate? I auditioned the unit in AnL but the room was 3 times my room size and it was out of the box and not optimized yet. If there is anyone who owns this or the siblings, or even do the measurents please share your thoughts. I don't bother for musical performance, only the oomph for movies. Thank you.

Initially i also thought of gettin the SPl1200 but after auditioning the 1000 and based on my room size (smaller than A&L by 1/4), i decided that the 1000 was good enough already..

Calculation is wrong ler.. Sq Ft is width x length.. Dont include height... if your HT room 1000sqf can become cinema dy...

Thank you. based on your room size it is adequate.... since u don't need a musical sub I feel the 10Q is a good fit. If want 'bias' professional advise, u can try the calculator in Velodyne's website

go for 12Q la. initially i also thought 10Q sudah cukup and after audit both at hifi shop, i straight away choose 12Q. i audited both 10Q and 12Q NIB and i found 10Q is "struggling". perhaps not proper setup kua... it would great if you can audit both ... and use your ear and 'feeling' to decide

Based on the specs and price, if you want to get Velo 10R or 12R, better get SVS PB12NSD. Real sub can play quite flat down to 20hz. If SPL and above, then Velo would be a good choice due to the built in eq which is quite expensive to add on for other brand of sub. In the market the eq itself would worth min RM 1.5k and above.
