Hi, it's me!

Due to my small living room, that's why I'm choosing between MS309 and Wharfy sw150 instead of velo
I believe the velo 10Q at RM2.2K is good enough. I can top up even RM600-RM800 for it from my previous budget 1.2k - 1.4k.
Just, I'm concerned that is this velo-10 suitable for my apartment where the living room size around 9x8 sqft??
Will it overbassy or louder that affected other people here?

I really need your comments as Im going for my new HT setup by next week.

You can always turn down the volume of the sub if its too loud. But i personally think that most problem with sub not integrating well with the speakers is due to the poor quality of the sub. Overbassy normally happen when the sub is very boominess. But if you have a good quality sub that is clean and fast, you will want more of it instead of complaining that it is over bassy. Trust me that it is worth spending more on a good sub because it really improves the overall sound of the main speakers. I only learn about this when i got my new sub 2 weeks ago. Its the single most expensive piece of HT hardware i bought but it really makes night and day difference. Now i will not go back to those boomy sub anymore as they really sound like crap! icon_rolleyes.gif

But seriously I'm quite worried cos I've got wooden flooring in my new place...how ar?

I think the concern with wooden floor is whether it will cause any boominess. Your wood floor is laid on top of battens right?

Anyway, if really got an issue then a SubDude would help.

My "living room" is on the 1st floor. I converted the place as a 2nd living hall. Ground floor is 24x24 tiles, 1st and 2nd floor timber strips on top of concrete cement. They are the interlocking type, so it is just laid on top of the cement, that's why I am worried. sweat.gif

Yeah, those 80cm x 80cm tiles. I remembered it costs around RM150 per piece imported from Italy when I quote my renovation last year. In the end have to settle for 60x60 sweat.gif

If laid just on top of cement then actually there is less issue since there is direct contact between the strips and the cement. If you use battens, there is a gap between the strips and the cement thus giving rise to possibility of resonance, etc.
