Last week, during one lunch time, I had a quickie visit to a shop near where I was having lunch in Pandan Indah.
He had a 18" Kaino sub hooked up with a 12" JBL DSP250.
Played a clip from Eli, the assault at the old couple's house where they had the gattlin machine gun.
Man, the thump in the chest was insane..boomy as expected but I think with better EQ can be reduced
Aside from it's industrial look, anyone ever contemplated going down this route. Combining one for it insane mid-bass power with the LFE extension of SVS/Rhythmic...etc

doc.. when wanna have lunch at pandan indah again? biggrin.gif curious to listen

you can drop by yourself if you are in the area.
It is in a 1st floor lot, over a unisex salon.
You can call him for an audition. Joseph 016-21503744
Be prepared tho as his place is very cluttered and messy, as he does a lot of installs for HT.
Just go and feel THE FORCE !!

One word for the bass... Devastating! Tempted to get a pair of 18 and 15in! Or 15in to pair with svs

The ones I saw doesn't look like the pro audio series. The enclosure is much larger 73cm height x 61cm width x 61 cm depth, while the 15in is 45 x 51 x 68. They come with built-in amp. According to the supplier he asked kaino to customize the amp and driver. Amp supposed to be a us brand but can't remember the name. His setup is less than ideal and many things were rattling when the bass effect is on. A lot of amps and speakers lying around. He tested with harmon kardon amp and Bose speakers.

Downside is the enclosure looks industrial rather than those higher end brands which have better outlook. I hope there are more experienced bros who can go to audition and give more feedback. Ask Jim to put on book of Eli and turn on the 15in & 18in at the same time.

Not ask u to fight but wanna hear both svs and kaino combined. Cos the kaino is super powerful mid bass.. And svs has really good low bass so may be a good partnership la.

The FV15HP should not behave in that manner. Try to elevate it. Btw, you found a new place that day?

went to a few places already.. most not suitable for ht room coz got built-in cabinets and doesn't allow me to place the speakers properly. Average room size around 11 feet by 14 feet.. small right? Mostly I saw are condos in the range of 1600-2000sf built up. Some got very large living room but small bedroom.. so can't have ht room liau. This coming few days will look for landed property..mostly semi-d or bungalow.
