Hi all! Sorry in advance if this is a stupid question in a wrong place. Anyway, I kinda like this CHT-12R especially after reading through this tread but since it's not available over here in Sabah, wonder if any of these Yamaha unit can even come close to it - SW515 or SW1500. Their price is RM1650 and RM2850 respectively. Otherwise I will have to carry one from KL.

Cheap sub good bass has turned into the dark side...  Hell, should I just forget about the CHT-12R or SW250 and go straight to that SVS, one time pain in the account?  Damn now I can't get that cylinder out of my head. It's all you guys fault... callmevil, Mind if I ask how much is the shipping cost?

I went to an AV shop this afternoon and the owner introduced me this Velodyne SPL-1200, costs at around RM8800 (forgot the exact figure). If compare with the SVS PC-Ultra, which one gives more punch in movies?

Thanks for that link, arj. It does help a lot. And this statement below...damn, makes me wanna click on the "buy now" button at their website immediately. That's how a subwoofer should be eh, to make the listener feel like he is right in the action.  Now waiting for the shipping quote from SVS, hopefully everything will turn out smooth... QUOTE(callmevil @ Aug 27 2008, 09:36 PM) 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?

Yup, more boom if place at corner but might upset the overall sound quality. It all depends on individual preference, however. By the way, I was offered a used CHT-12 at RM2000. It's used less than a year. Worth it?
