I'm looking at possibly upgrading my sub: it's an SVS PC Plus 20-39 12" cylinder sub from 2006 if I recall. I am not even sure it makes sense to upgrade given my price point, but surely sub technology has evolved. I have been very happy with it, but I'm in the process of speaker and receiver upgrades for my dedicated front projection room, so might as well suck it up and consider a new sub. I am not one to upgrade audio too often as you can tell. The room it's going it is about 12 x 10 feet, with 8 foot ceilings. The room will also be sealed.
My speakers are going to be Definitive Technology Pro Monitor 1000s for fronts and 800s for surround. Since these are not large speakers, I definitely want some good punch from my sub and to make up as much as possible for that smaller speaker size. Make no mistake, my current SVS provides that, but even something with better bass quality is considered here.
This set-up will be strictly for Blu-ray movies by the way and likely paired with a Denon X4000 receiver.
I could consider something even slightly over $1000. That's how this is always goes, right?
Suggestions for something that would be a worthwhile improvement? Thanks!
