Subwoofers - crazy upgrade!

I’ve read it for decades , every where. Never tried a sub

Till now. What a shame! This is amazing. Just 1 hour

in my system and not fully broken in or calibrated. opens

Up the mains, deepens stage, adds bass detail. More

Soulful/open- dynamic- easy. Svs 3000 micro R. I do NOT

get the physical body compression, but musically wonderful!

I can overblow it a little to feel it though . I have it on the stock feet.

i think elevation would allow more volume and gain to get

a physical impact while keeping it clean. What an enjoyable

subwoofer!!

Just think, there are people that believe their system is just fine without a subwoofer. If they only knew. If you think one sub is good...the next level is stacked subs. You can't argue with physics.
