Not a good sub as it lacks accuracy and doesnt give the low end thump. But, cant complain abt that for the RM700 or less sub. Subwoofer Discussion Thread, A thread for things that go BOOOOMMM!!!

QUOTE(ALPS2008 @ Jun 28 2008, 12:55 PM) Hello htkaki, That's the thing with pairing. Need to be cohesive with the rest. But, SW250 digs deep. RM1,800? Aiks, on offer. Coz the last I checked wt Desa, it nearly tipped at RM2K Do you think Jamo Sub 300 =>cost around $1700 is good deal? The reason I still think of Jamo Sub because I have the Jamo 606 package speaker. I did audit the sub 250 with 606 speaker...is much better if compare without.... I did try to audit Wharfy SUB 250 at DESA..$1800...but using other speaker...I am not really feel the power or cannot feel the different with or without the sub....may the area is open area Desa recommend me another one...Porkaudio PSW125...$1500..I can hear the better bass....but don't still feel with or without which one is better.....just with increase boom..... But I prefer down-firing Sub...... With my Jamo speaker....always ppl said it is better to have similar brand sub also... Do you think...during AV fair 2008 will have better price? If you are afraid, then Jamo would be a safer bet. Seems like Desa is pushing hard on Polkaudio to everyone. |

QUOTE(hackwire @ Jul 4 2008, 04:33 PM) which one will u prefer between a velodyne and paradigm . lets compare apple to apple.. 10" sub. your answer always nest a golden egg. Hehe It hs a few midrange sub, with the PS better known here. Since it is musical too, it (PS-10) goes a bit soft unlike the 'hard hitting' CHT-10R. Dont misunderstand. Both are powerful sub for a 10". Movie fans would likely to go for CHT-10R while those who loves both, definitely go for PS-10. On another note, CHT-10R looks better and comes with remote. |

QUOTE(kvn1080 @ Jul 5 2008, 06:18 PM) VX-10 MK3 is no way near CHT-10R. It looks ugly to me too. No remote. Lacks low end grunt and power. It is the lower end model from Velodyne. Erm, I feels that my Klispch floorstanders do a better job than this. No pun intended and no offense to those owners here QUOTE I think I've read somewhere about Velodyne VX-10 MK3, it's not as good as the CHT series. Paradigm has been around for some time. It does produce very good subwoofer. Only thing is that it is a bit 'low profile' here. Dont expect to see it being reviewed by UK mags as they are more bias towards European products esp homeland goods. Thanks Htkaki for the info, I'm also into musical, I might checkout the Paradigm. |

QUOTE(aiman04 @ Jul 7 2008, 07:13 AM) From what I've heard, Rogers subs are not recommended at all. Maybe that explains the cheap price, but certainly not good bass. Spot on. Only churns out 'whommpa, whoompa, sort of those bass that you hear from Ah Beng's car', but cant complain since it is cheap. Good thing doesnt come cheap |

In terms of value for money and high rating, SW150 is the one. Both are very good subs for the money. But, forking a few hundred more for MS is a minus point here. But, it does look better than SW150.
I would go for SW150. At this price, nothing come close to matching it. But, I like long-throw woofer |

QUOTE(aiman04 @ Jul 13 2008, 08:17 AM) Yes Htkaki, the quote was from Asia Sound Equipment. You just gave me more options to consider, a good one that is. And I appreciate it bro. But worry not. Apparently the HM has other plans, I no longer had RM2.5k budget. I have to settle for what I can afford only. Look what came home with me yesterday: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Got it at A&L Audio. The new stock only arrived 2 days ago, and the manufacture dat at the back is May 16 2008, that only 2 months ago. Now it has 3 years warranty for electronics, and 5 years for the driver. They said they won't bring it to the KLIAV. And even if they bring it, if they sell cheaper than what I paid, they will refund the difference. So I thought, if I can get it now, why wait for another 2 weeks? This sub is really good, though for music the Paradigm is a little bit better to be honest. At this size it already stands out in my living room, I just can't imagine if I brought home the 12". PS: Htkaki, they're out of stock for RX-V1800, but their selling price is RM3650. I really like this place, this is the second time I did some demo there. The guy, Rick was so friendly and more importantly, honest. Rick is very friendly. I knew few of them there as they were the distributor fro PSB and Velodyne, which I did get from them yrs ago. Tks for getting the quote for me. RM3.6K quote is from A&L |

QUOTE(cougar richard @ Jul 20 2008, 02:19 PM) Erm... RM 1500 for floorstanders, RM 400 for center + surrounds, 12 feet of audioquest-cinemaquest G2 RM 120 (RM10 per feet), Wharfedale powercube 12+ RM 1900. I only heard abt the cable and sub brand. For the speakers, i really never heard b4. The salesperson told my father it was actually producing high-end audio products yrs back, then now starts producing cheap audio product. he claims it is a US company, but then the quality built like cap ayam to me, not solid at all. The spec at the back of speakers also like simply write only. i can never find any info from google. RM1500 for floorstanders?! So, it is overpricing for all those equipment above? |

QUOTE(aiman04 @ Jul 20 2008, 06:43 PM) Finally tested the sub, after a week of running in. Watch Die Hard BD, boy, this disc has got a lot of LFE. Will take note of the setting. I've decided to use the reference mode (classical/Jazz) for all sources (movies, music, games). Firstly, the movie mode got too much delay to it, the bass seems to drag too much. Some people might like that, so it's not a downside to the sub. But the reference mode makes up to it, and gets low as I hoped for. Secondly, the reference mode sounds, to my surprise, very good with music. Every beat is on target, and solid. Didn't think this sub can be this musical. Lastly, I want to avoid using the remote. I was looking for the correct settings and wants to keep it like that as along as possible. I've got too many remote already, let's hope Logitech releases the RF version of their Harmony One soon, and my wallet is filled by that time. PS: NHK? Isn't that the Japanese national TV station? You can use the remote to learn all other remotes' signal. But, wont be as user friendly as Logitech. |
