For some reason I was thinking LV12. The LVx12 changes things a bit...I will have to retract my last statement and say all 3 are solid choices. Still the Outlaws at 999.00 shipped are the best value.
Thanks guys. Enrico at Rythmik just posted the LVX12 will be discounted to $699 shipped on Friday. Not sure if they'll also offer a multi-sub discount. Things are getting really interesting...
The PB-2000 is a real workhorse. If SVS has the outlet sale this weekend and you can get one for around $650, that's what I would go for. Best warranty, perks and customer service, as well. The one weakness the Outlaw Ultra-X12 has is the ports. Running in ax extension you only have a single 3" port open. That's where a problem with port noise can arise with intense LFE. A 3" port really isn't sufficient when things get down and dirty. Even the 10" PB-1000 has a larger port size.
I own the Outlaw LFM-1 plus and it is a big boy sub! Hits low, doesn't distort and hs incredible output! The X12 is the newer version of that sub. Very good rep as a subwoofer maker.
Thanks everyone for your input. I was waiting to see if any new deals popped up at SVS before making a decision. I just pulled the trigger on two of the Outlaws. Price and aesthetics as well as performance that should suit my needs tipped the scales. It is REALLY easy to start down the path of "for just a few dollars more I could get..."
True...however, I can say from personal experience...that you can also go cheap and be dissapointed. look at me...I got a SLS 8 inch sub, the ML dynamo 500, the Klispch synergy and the Klipsch Rw12d that ain't worth the ugly carpet they sit on! With that in mind, i saw with confidence that they really aren't too many good subwoofers under 500 bills! I spent way over 500 dollars to find that out...
Was hoping the ultra x12’s would go on sale but oh well... pulled the trigger on some pb2000’s! Hopefully they don’t disappoint!
