Research for subwoofer


I have Bryston model T bookshelf speakers connected to a Luxman 509 that plays high res "Qbuz" music, jazz, pop, classical. ETC.   I am considering agreeing a sub but would like some opinions of what might work well with this set up.  The sub would have to go on the floor, could be powered or not.  Would like to build more of a stage with additional bass. 

Thoughts?

Thanks Dave

we sell a number of subwoofers  from

kef, Mj acoustics, Elac and a few others

 

you would get great results with an Elac Varo

DS1200-GB $3200 

 

this woofer goes low 17hz has very high output118db is compact 

and has a few major advantages over many other manufacturers

auto eq and a customizable parametric eq in a very convenient app

the woofer was designed by Andrew Jones so it is very fast and articulate.

Good advice.  Talking to different manufacturers will give you even more info to help make a decision.  I’ve had great experiences with SVS.  Their customer service and support before, during and after the sal is excellent.  Buy, try for 45 days and return for free in the US for a full refund is a great way to test the sub(s) in your room, with your equipment listening to the music you love.  The only way to truly know and avoid buyer’s remorse in my experience.  

@tcutter set scale in increments of 10. so set it from 30 to 80dB on the vertical or 40 to 90 on the vertical

@tcutter well this is actually how your subwoofers are in your room... so yes they're better in red but you still have work to do. using that scale hid all that necessary detail from you. you still have 10dB suckouts in important bass ranges like the 60Hz to 110Hz suckout and the 11dB dip between 40 and 60Hz. Basically work is not done at all
