havnt calibrate it properly as im too lazy to buy a 9V battery for the SPL meter

Tested it on Diehard 4 and Pearl Harbor and a bunch of music... verdict = 11/10 its Amazing that i wanted to vomit in pearl harbor, dunno why.. i dunno how else to comment on this aside from.. WOW

Yes u should.. the sw250 is nothing compared to this cylinder.. ive demoed it.. and with this things, u know u wont have to upgrade it anytime soon
as for shipping mine was quoted

380USD for door 2 airport
660USD for door 2 door

but. I am sure it is much cheaper if ur shipping to east msia as the route stops in KL airport before it reach Brunei. Jack28ht got it for below 300USD door 2 door when he got his svs. another user Dirtrun also got svs but im not sure how much his shipment cost.

Just send them an email and ask them how much to send a speaker to ur area (just give ur address), and they will get back to u on it. The staff of SVS are Very nice ppl

ok.. i have just spent a good hour calibrating my speakers / sub (1st time doing this since i bought them), didnt know it could be complicate for beginners.. ok.. so again i used cloverfield to test.. i just skipped to intense scene.. the difference is unbelievable haha.. so for anyoen who havent calibrate their speakers.. PLEASE DO! u dont know what ure missing! i had to reduce my movie volume from 0db down to -5db now..

ok now.. 1 question to sifus.. why do i feel exhausted.. like seriously exasperated after listening to intense BASS + effect?? when i say effect.. the svs rumbles my whole room until every building demolishing scene in cloverfield made me feel like i am RIGHT there... is this some placebo effect??? but i find myself kinda gasping for air when the scene is done.. and now i am exhausted.. and feel a bit scared.. haha

help?

palpitation yes.. sweating no.. breathing long and weak... freaky man~~ feels like im tripping..

I used this thing called "SPL Meter". i got it from the svs website (free shipment with a sub purchase)

theres alot of guide online on how to do this. but if ur lost just send me a pm here and ill give u step by step guide hehe basically its just making sure every speaker in ur room (including the sub) is outputting the SAME or As similar as possible volume to the listening position.. meaning, say ure SL is further from ur SR, calibrating would determine just how much stronger should ur SL be outputing so that itll equal the sound coming from ur SR..

i set all my speakers at the recommended 75db and my sub at 80db.. hehehe

Good luck Hian!! hope u get it through, then we can have more screenshot poison for SVS ! hahaha Gambate~~~!

first... u go to ur receiver and turn the master volume to 0db.. then u enter ur avr menu, then go to manual setup, then go to basic setup, then go turn on ur test tone. after that enter the sp level menu in ur avr. ok now go to the SPL meter and turn the dial to 70, after that... go to ur viewing spot and either point the mic upwards or aim it directly to the speaker (i prefer to aim it upwards as my ears are staticly positioned when watching movies/etc) ok.. now turn the sp level of ur speaker up/down until the meter reads 75db.. then without moving the position of the spl meter, move on the the next speaker and do the same.. rinse repeat till all speakers inc the sub is calibrated to the 75db, u can make ur sub to do 80db though (mine is at 80) after that... DOne~

ohh turn of all EQ/drc/etc settings and make sure the speaker distance is all correct before u start..

can~ hahah as long as u live within borneo lol

just now i brought the SPL meter to work.. all oso i check.. printer, binder, fax machine, scanner, door, toilet flush, the punchcard Peep, etc.. tried to pair it with my spectrum analyser.. but didnt seem useful..

.. 83.49 la... know ur bodmas..

same.. bought it for 40usd

yes its just a db meter

u'll never know until u try... go ahead.. u wont regret.. at least not in the long run..

damnit! intended to poison! rupanya bitten oredi and got vacinated! haha

no issues on warranty man, SVS will cover it u just have to send the broken item to them, and they will ship u a replacement.. hehe

no no its not like that.. say for e.g. the driver rosak, they will ask u to dismantle it and just send the driver back to them, and they will send u a new one. and then u reinstall it.. they will give all the instructions..

imo calibration is a bigger hassle.. hahha

wats the difference using Y cable for subs? isnt it the same ??
