i set mine at 75dB for all channels including sub. It sounds perfectly well

Hi Simon,

Maybe you can refer to :

bass traps would be good.

Taiwan's Prime AV Award 2010 :

Hmm.... let me try to translate :

"PB13-Ultra is one of the biggest subwoofers that I had reviewed thus far. Its facade measures more than 20cm and its depth is a terrifyingly 68cm with over 70kg in weight. It uses a 13” woofer for LFE with 3 high-flow flared ports powered by BASH amp that is rated at 750W. I found this unit to be big on voice coil that measures 3” and made from high temperature aluminum for optimal power handling. There is a rather huge gap surrounding the front cone for heat dissipation, while a gigantic dual linear 9” “spiders” with sewn-in tinsel leads with dual stacked ferrite magnets, 2” thick rubber surround and copper ‘farraday ring’ for enhanced frequency response and maximum efficiency. This enable the PB13-Ultra to produce 20Hz with power. With its stitched foam-core/glass composite cone, the woofer is very strong and can hold its own up. I can feel the lowness of the LFE which it brings changes to home cinema. Not only this, it could bring the realism of being in the movie a few steps up and watching movie will never be the same again"

My mandarin translation not really up to standard so there might be some mistakes

Not yet. Troy Chu of Taiwan will send it over for their review soon. I expect it to have good review

Have you tested the scenes that I mentioned? How's the performance compared to the other renowned US sub?




No exact pricing yet. But, it would be very competitive. The unit is pre-prod sample given to Prime AV for a review. The price range would be around USD1,099 to USD1,299. As it is very compact, the shipping cost will be considerably cheaper than the sub. Hence, if the price point is right, then it will be lower than 5K to RM6K.

As usual, there will be limited pre-orders once it is officially launched. A unit of this might be making its way to my showroom next month. More info by next week esp pre-orders. Expect attractive price

No info on it yet as it is not in production yet. Expect price to be near identical for this once it hits the market.

I will e-mail to all SVS owners once it is out as priority is given to you all

tolorati, welcome to SVS club

Yes, it is indeed compact since it is based on B&O ICE power amp design. Expect the first demo unit to be here by end May along with all new SB13-Plus.

Btw, just completed this project in Klang :

The Subdude does help to minimise the vibration. Not sure how bad is your vibration. With Subdude, the bass becomes even more tighter.

On another note, PC-Ultras and PC12-NSD are on its way here.

klimal, it's RM290. Tell him that Max said so

tolorati, you can't do it with 1910. There's REW s/w and others. Maybe try PM anfieldude or kiam for more info.

Mine on auto. I always unplug all my gears when not in use. Kiasi about lightning strike. Else, all gone case.

Btw, there will be more news on SB series in these few days including SB16-Ultra

If it is a direct, whatever surge protector also no use. Better to unplug when not in use.

Usually, there is no need to run SVS sub at 3dB as it has so much of output that it can easily overpower a typical room. I can safely say that not many subs can come close to it if there is any available locally.

The Auralex will certainly helps to a certain degree but could not possible eliminate the vibrations. This is due to massive amount of air being moved by it to produce such SPL Try to pit it against a well-known US 15" ported sub that cost more than a grand more than your PC. Run the same scene again or TS Seven Eleven scene. Tell me the result

There will be pre-order for SB series as I mentioned earlier at a special price with limited units. Do you want SB16-Ultra?

Boss, sure you want SB-16? Its characteristic would be entirely different from PB13-Ultra. Anyway, it comes with a touch screen remote. It will be launched in end 3Q or early 4th Q 2010.

Won't be that 'premium' price. Will have more details on that soon.

I am hoping that SB10-NSD and SB12-NSD can make its way here before KLIAV show.

It will be here by end Nov or early Dec if everything is smooth sailing. Will let you know the special pre-order price

The SB12-NSD matt black & piano black (RM3,400 & RM3,650 respectively - pre order with limited units) would be here first, right before KLIAV Show. Then, it would be SB10-NSD for as low as RM2,450 for matt black finish (pre-order price - shall confirm the no of limited units) and RM2,600 (pre-order) for piano black finish.

The SB13-Plus would be slightly more than PB13-Ultra while SB12-Plus cost a little bit more than PB12-Plus

Boss, the sealed sub aint going to shift that massive amount of air as effectively as ported sub. Are you sure that you want one?

SB Retail Price:

SB10-NSD : RM2,600
SB10-NSD gloss black : RM2,750

SB12-NSD : RM3,699

No, it is SB12-NSD photos.

This is SB12-Plus :



and this is the woofer of SB12-Plus :



I cannot release photos of SB13-Plus at the moment w/o permission from principal.

logit85, buy want you SB16-Ultra or not? Maybe got special preorder price. But above sure RM15.5K coz confirmation no on yet price.

I will go for dual PB/PC 13-Ultra setup in sealed configuration. I can always change to port 15Hz setting whenever I like when watching movie. SB16-Ultra for perfectionist

If ronaldjoe is free, I think he is willing to go and audition your setup.
