What I can say as for now is that the stock might be limited. As the second shipment would be in October itself.

Cash and carry would be a good idea. Don't have to bring it back.

As for anything 'special' on that 1 day, I would like to reserve my comment until things are finalised. By the way, the first shipment is almost sold out thumbup.gif It's expected to be here by 3rd week of Sept due to some unforeseen circumstances. To those buyers (you know who you are), thank you for your support.

It's always the price vs performance issue. US price for SB13+ is $1249 (piano black) vs $949 for PC12+. That's a 31% difference. Means the SB13+ would be about RM7.1k here. If you choose the oak/rosenut finish price would go down to 6.9k. These are my guesses.

So it's more expensive, but you're meant to get more accurate bass at the expense of output (i.e. it might not have the max SPL of the PC12+). Some more the PC12+ can run in sealed mode, but whether that is as good as a true sealed sub I don't know. Of course the one advantage you cannot ignore is the SB13+ is much smaller.

All depends on how big is the room and how loud you play movies. If you play loud (like some fellas in US who play at reference level) then a sealed sub would not be able to keep up with a ported sub.

Still waiting for the chance one day to hear one of the SVS subs at my usual listening levels. Anybody in Klang Valley side wanna invite me smile.gif

What do you define as "performance"? If you're talking about output (i.e. quantity of bass) then yes, sealed subs fall behind. In terms of accuracy (i.e. quality of bass) sealed subs are supposed to be superior.

As for amp, the SB13+ has a 1000W amp. However, it's not necessarily true that all sealed subs need a monster amp. If the driver is light and efficient a smaller amp could work too.

Yes .. there is a very general statement.. but there r sealed subs that can go respectively loud and ported subs that r tight yet loud (claimed by svs 13 ultra users.. but not sure how true r they)

In general this seems to be the thinking. But like I said there are other factors to take into account and it is possible for a sealed sub to be good in movies too (e.g. the Submersive).

370W. Apparently it has a light and efficient driver.
