It sounds great! It brought a smile to my face while watching Ready Player One. I got it for free though so I might be a little biased. I'd choose it over any of the other $500 subs on the market.

Very nice. Very happy for you.

But...but... SVS subs obliterate expectations with jaw-dropping accuracy and earth-shattering performance with astonishing clarity and spine-crushing LFEs with mind-numbing levels of power and refinement.

Can your measly Monolith do all that?

Damn you, @Zing !!!! I had to turn off and wash my notebook PC after I spewed my coffee all over it thanks to you!
 
Wow, lots of hate on SVS these days. They must have really pissed you guys off in my absence.
 
I moved my response to the SVS Marketing thread in the Misc. section.

Okay... I'll try to explain my stance dispassionately and without humor or sarcasm...

Maybe I'll copy it over.
 
I'm just glad I bought my superbly fantastic, earth rumbling, room shaking, unparalleled SVS sub before they started sucking.

So, I'm still one of the cool kids!!!

I remember when it was safe to assume that anyone who bought an SVS subwoofer got an amazing product at an amazing price. Now I am not so sure about either.

So other than the superfluous BS and marketing hyperbole, have they done anything that leads us to believe your statement above?

I read your post earlier and you made a bunch of great points but honestly are they doing anything any worse than Monster or Bose?
 
Make of this what you will but somewhere between 2008 and 2010 I drove out to SVS to pick up a pair of their MBS speakers and get a tour of their facility. The manager met me right away and struck up a conversation before showing me around. He asked me if the speakers I was picking up were my first SVS product. I said "No, I have a PB12 NSD/2 subwoofer." To my shock his reply was "Oh nice! You have one of the last good subs." He literally put an emphasis on the word 'good' as if to suggest their newer offerings were somehow inferior to what they had been making.
