Looking for HTS12

[waris]

Hi friends,
I am looking for Polk HTS12 sub-woofer. Presently no one has it in stock . Any suggestions how to proceed.
Also My living room is 15 X 12. Shall I go for HTS12 or 10. I live in apartment and not sure how neighbors will react to loud sound.
I have a 3.0 set-up as of now. Q acoustics 3020i +3090ci powered with Denon x2400. Here is the link to my older thread.
Home theater
You will find my apartment layout in the thread. It's basically L shape . Any ways to isolate the dining area?
If anyone is selling old HTS ,plz let me know.
What is a good price for HTS 10 and 12. Other available subwoofers at nearly dealers are TAGA SW10 V3 and JBL STAGE A120P.
thanks

Hi,
Looking for some suggestions on the subwoofers.

 

[HTuser]

Alternate options at that price range are Sonodyne Roar 1312, BIC America PL 200 ii etc.

At higher price range, you can consider XTZ Spirit 12, Rythmik L12, Sonodyne Sub 1012 etc.

If 10" is fine, you can consider SVS PB1000, Sonodyne Sub 1010 etc.

how are Taga SW10 V3 and JBL A120P compared to these.

Taga S10 V3 is 10" sub it is good, comes with 240W RMS amp. Taga TSW212 also there - 12" driver, but amp is 200W only.
JBL A120P is normally opted along with JBL Stage speakers. The frequency response is 32Hz and above only.

I would suggest Taga among these two options

If they are available in the demo setup with the dealers, you can audition and decide

If I compare these two with the models I suggested in previous post, PL 200 is slightly better than Taga and more better than JBL.
If you are ok with 10" driver, Sonodyne Sub 1010 can be considered , will be at par with PL200

Do check Taga TSW-212 se.

 

[geekymusiclover]

My advise would be to check sunfire sds12. Was in market for subwoofer recently and bought this. Dual drivers sounds amazing and I personally liked them over svs pb1000

 

[waris]

Thank you all FMs. I have ordered HTS12.

@geekymusiclover . Sunfire sds12 is cheaper than pb1000? What was the price you got for sunfire sub?

 

[Cooladitya007]

Taga TSW212 also there - 12" driver, but amp is 200W only.

You mean Taga TSW212 or TSW212SE?

TSW212 not available anymore and TSW212SE comes with amplifier exactly the same as the one as used in Platinum SW-10 v.3 subwoofer.

I would strongly recommend

REL Acoustics​

Did auditioned PB1000 but negotiated on the price for sb1000. Eventually ended buying SDS 12 in lesser price than sb1000 (by 2k+). The reason wasn't price though, I liked the overall experience of the SDS 12.

Dear friends,
I have received the sub and run audessey. Sub sounds good with music and movies both. I have yet to check with heavy bass . Overall I am happy just wondering whether it can sound better since I am a beginner .

Hi,

The sub is awesome when u set the volume at 1 o clock position and on ur avr , set the crossover to 80hz, set the volume at -0.5db.

Do let us know your feedback on the performance

Overall I am happy just wondering whether it can sound better since I am a beginner .

Only one way for us to tell: Get a UMIK-1 mic ( https://www.minidsp.com/products/acoustic-measurement/umik-1), run Room EQ Wizard and post your measurements.

Congratulations on your new sub. Enjoy!
