NEED NEW SUB HELP!!!!!!!

Tobamory (Harmless) posted this on Monday, 10th March 2003, 23:06

Ok my setup
1 pioneer vxs 2011
1 pioneer 757ai
mission FS2 in 7.1 setup

OK the system sounds fine, but i feel im missing bass, ive been to peoples house and watched movies and the bass has been fantastic ie DEEP feel it in ya chest, so ive decided to retire the mission FS2 sub and concentrate on a new option. I was going to get a REL quake but have been told it may not be enough for my setup, my Room is fairly big 15x12 approx maybe bigger, a large front room. Can anyone advise me, The guys in the shops say get a rel 200e or any ST range, my budget isnt limitless and id like a sub 500 pound 1 but i will go to 800 at a push, I have a friend who has a paradigm ps1000 and he said get that, ive seen the tannoy rev 3 for 450 and thats massive. Can ne1 help me with my needs. Is REL the way to go or do i look at other makes? if so what, i need that earth moving thud in my chest when films kick off.

thanks guys

I have an REL Quake and I think it is fantastic. Your best bet is to just go and audition different subs an dsee what you think.

Try the Velodyne CHT-10 around £350.00

Or if you want the Quake, ive seen it in Black for £300.00 & thats a bargain http://www.moltengold.com/cgi-bin/eBzget5A.pl?shop=5865PeterTyso&trolley=1917453638&page=http://www.petertyson.co.uk/quake.shtml

15x12 Meters I assume? The REL Q150 is really where you should start looking. B&W ASW675 kick out a hell of alot of bass. You can not go wrong with any of the ST range.

All the best,
