new HSU VTF-15H

[DIYer]

I always assumed he was busy nursing his wounds and his pride.

Even after 2 1/2 years later?
I guess he took it harder than we (then S&V members) thought. :confusion-seeingstars:

 

[Towen7]

I've had the best that SVS has to offer and it still MAY be a better overall product than the 15H, but I don't think it's close to $1k better than this sub.

T7, here's your chance to be bold and different w/o really being very bold.

Bat's point is what give's me pause as it sort-of applies to the sub I'm using now (an SVS 20-39PC+) in reverse. Is a single VTF-15H better then the sub I have now? Will two of them be $900 better than one?

Oh just man up and buy a new sub already, would ya? If you want to go off the beaten path AND be the envy of most, get yourself a Gotham G213. :happy-smileygiantred:

 

[Towen7]

Why you gotta break balls? :violence-hammer:

 

[Zing]

Is that a rhetorical question?

 

[Towen7]

Do you have to ask?

 

[Zing]

I just didn't want to use up bandwidth in a reply if you really didn't want one.

T7, I would think this sub is a step up from the 20-39PC+; but, that's obviously a guess since I haven't heard it.

I won't declare this Hsu as a better sub until I hear it w/ music, but I think it deserves to be mentioned when asked for recommendations. T7, here's your chance to be bold and different w/o really being very bold.

John

What the ?!?!? I'm the bold one, I pulled the trigger!! If T7 pulls the trigger now, he's not bold, he's just another ankle-humping lemming!!! :laughing-rolling:

And that goes for any of you other "suckers" that decide to pull the trigger too :teasing-tease:

Personally I would say that the 15H is superior to the PC13U even...

That's pretty high praise and frankly I'm pleasantly surprised that you'd make such a statement.

It's not that HSU has never had the chops to compete, they just never took it to the level of what class this sub is competing in. Now they have entered it's a whole new game.

That's just it. I wouldn't have considered a $900 HSU to be in the same class as an $1800 SVS. Just sayin'.

That's the same premise SVS was started under, now that they've had a taste of the good life, the tables have turned.
It's my person opinion that after Tom left the tables began to turn, which Tom openly admits that he and Ron had differing opinions with marketing strategy.

I haven't been a fan of the direction SVS has taken, especially with their subs......reducing the number, adding a digital amp and jacking up the price.

If I had the money, I'd be all over that HSU. But, I'm still trying to save for a display and blu ray player....

For me, it all started when they revoiced the MTS speakers. The issue to me wasn't as much in the change of the sound, as it was in the reason for changing the sound.

(sigh) and once again I get to envy Bats and his suck factor.


Sweet subs Bats.

[ref: "Sweet subs, Bats."

I'll second that, Matt.

I'm confident Batman will not be returning or getting rid of these two speakers any time soon.
I think he made a smart, well-timed purchase.

[Towen7]

I'd still like to know if there is value in having two of these (or any other nin a non-stereo configuration.

Could two subs playing the same source from different locations not cause some cancelation and/or amplification of certain frequencies without EQ applied to each?
