+1, visited Jake's HT and the experience is excellent.
My HT room is about 16sqm with 1 PB13 Ultra and 1 SB13Plus. Planning to go dual PB13 Ultra.
sobra naman si dennis maka excellent.
haha! thank you pare! kamusta?
I currently have a SB12 if i get another one? Will that make a big difference? I only have a small HT room 20sq meters
chief, for perspective - my room is only 11sqm. i have 2 ported boxes and 1 sealed woofer. my ported boxes are 1000w RMS each, while my sealed woofer is also 1000w RMS.
i got the Ported Box 13" Ultra subs to do the extensions. i can't elaborate enough how much different the Ultra extensions could be compared to the other subs i have had. went thru several subs already but stopped right here and never looked back.
i took another Sealed Box 13" Plus sub for the mid bass kick. the gunshots are never the same. am sure you know that now given you have a sealed sub yourself.
here's some read about sealed and ported subs -
http://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-design/sealed-vs-ported-subwoofersand another read on efforless bass with greater headroom -
http://www.audioholics.com/subwoofer-setup/two-substhe premise of my reco is that you are looking at more power to improve your HT experience. if this is what you desire, keep your SB12 for the midbass kick, they will complement the ported box woofers. get dual PB13 Ultras. they will keep you grinning ear to ear every time it kicks your seat even during dialogues. it will keep you replaying scenes which did not give you that viewing experience before. war/battle scenes will never be the same!
i still stand by it based on my own experience, i once also deliberated on a power amplifier - and i also use to own just one sealed subwoofer for my home theater.
again good luck on your hunt brother!
btw, if you are anywhere near sta. rosa you are welcome anytime to visit. cheers!
