3. Best Performance system- Audio Kinesis 4-sub Swarm for $3,000. This option will clearly outperform the other options since it will provide deep, fast, smooth, accurate, highly detailed and dynamic bass that will be perceived as the most effortless, the most natural and the best integrated with your main speakers. It will also be the most convenient option to configure since all settings are made once on the amp/control unit for the 4 subs collectively rather than separately on each individual sub.I've respected your detailed and informative suggestions helping people new to subwoofers by sharing your basic knowledge and your enthusiasm with this system. I'm saddened to read your declarations of, "Best, most, and outperform the other options."
Good luck,
Tim
Subwoofer advice
So looking to add a new component (or 2) to my system (Snell Type D, McCormack .5 or Jolida 502b, Schiit Saga pre, Rega Planet, Dual 1219 TT) and contemplating a sub. Basement room is 14'w x 30'l x 7.5'h and treated with first reflection points and base traps on front wall. Interested in the REL T series, either the T7i or T9i. The Snells have 8" woofers so not sure the T7i at 8" will make a significant difference. The room might be too big as well. So it might have to be the T9i at 10". Looking to supplement clean low end not anything bloated or overbearing.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated!
