Title: SVS 16-46 PC-Plus
Post by: StephenWVU on July 31, 2011, 02:34:25 PM

Ok, so he dropped the price down to $250 on this sub and I am picking it up tomorrow..  After reading reviews I hear it EXCELS on the deep lows but doesn't do great on the mids.  I am ideally going to get some good tower speakers in the near future to cover the mid lows.  I have an HSU STF-1.  I listen to music probably 60% and watch movies 40%.  I miss the deep lows using my STF-1 during movies and can't hear certain notes I remember in my classical.  It drives me nuts.  That is why I am picking up the SVS 16-46 plus.  The question I have is should I try to run these two subs together for now?  How would I do that?  If I were to pick up a pair of Mirage 890is, would that integrate well? Would the bass be musical?

Thanks guys!

Let us know how it sounds by writing a review here, please.  Interested to know if it really goes down to 16 hz and at how many dbs,  I know the Sunfire mkii does  18 fine :P

Sub placement is a room is a huge issue.  If u can, play with location.
