laugh.gif  spot on. Now, waiting for the new owner for a review. Planning my schedule for a trip to Penang to visit you guys in May. It would be a one day trip. Going there by flight. Hoping to audition the monstrous Submersive and audition your setup.
nadky, you auditioned this sub before, right?

htkaki,

If I remember correctly, the one I auditioned was a 8 inch Sunfire HRS Sub. It was darn small but heavy for its size. Sound wise, it's considered clean for a small sealed sub. Only one drawback, perhaps due to its size, the sub tend to 'dance' around when the bass is too low...perhaps the bigger one would not have such problem. I guess it's due to its weight and the power it could deliver....Other than that, it's not bad at all.

Tis is sooo funny.......

Plane only allow 20-25kg boss. 85kg sub 1 human cannot carry boss. If serious want to buy, which i doubt, you fly down to KL during KLIAV loh.

Please consider other ppl b4 making ridiculous request.

haha! i know this sub is rather good but am a newbie in regards to tuning a sub for best effect with my SR6003. any step 1-2-3 guidance anfieldude?

here's what i've listened to before deciding on item#5.
1. Velo DD-12 (the BEST!) drool.gif
2. Velo CHT-12Q (bass not tight nor impactful enuf)
3. Paradigm DSP-3400 (better than CHT-12Q... a little)
4. Earthquake Mini-me 12 (not much bass..??)
5. Sunfire HRS-12 (rather close to DD series but not as omphh!) thumbup.gif
6. Polk (forgot which model but i think it's a 10".... not good)

It would of different characteristic wink.gif

Unfortunately, there isn't one in PG. The nearest would be mys_terious' home.

Not easy to put the 13-Ultra's performance into words. Best is to audition it. Anfieldude, jchong, bryanlee and the rest whom had auditioned it will know about the feeling.

If Ronnt88 want the shootout, I don't mind hosting the event again. We can watch avatar again. Is it 200lbs in total for submersive? I'll get Anfieldude to bring the SVS AS-EQ1 to try out.

OK. I admit it's me. Anyway, I just got news from eD that they can ship out the kits in 1.5 weeks with the new LT1300 amp which had solved the circuit breaker trip issue. So, maybe instead of DD-12, might be eD-A7s650. Need to talk to my carpenter how much total for assembly and veneer.
