Equalization of a subwoofer is a must for proper integration. . I recommend subs with that feature..
Or else does denon 2500 ha s feature for subwoofer equalization?

if it is pl200ii(not pl200), then I will advice you to go with it.

ok ok sir. Sure will do. You mean the timbre matching sir ?

 

[Prodigy]

Go for PL200ii. It’s a great sub can bring the roof down

Yes.....But if you feel edged towards the PL 200...go ahead.....

Frankly speaking, there is no such concept of timbre matching when it comes to Sub, except for aesthetic and same brand look, because they deal with freq less then 100hz or below. When it comes to sub, you check how low they can go, whether sealed or ported (front or rear - esp. for placement sake) and within your price bracket. I think BIC would be right choice IMO.

I tried to check and couldn't find subwoofer EQ on this AVR.

Kindly look for these subs
Elac sub 3010
Paradigm defiance v10
Slightly above your budget but with app based EQ you will benefit a lot..

@sudhirpsg

You need to audition and decide based on your budget and output requirement. There are many posts and reviews available. Ported subs work well for movies and sealed subs work well for music...besides this.... placement is very crucial which gets tricky for some....

As long as you were able to audition and like it then go for it. What may seem to work well for me may not necessarily work for you. Some subwoofer companies over rate their specs...the main job of the subwoofer is to deliver / cover those frequencies which cannot be outputted by the main speakers / surround speakers and also to add the punch feel to the overall system.

Both Sub within Price range are great with its own blend.. check which sound likes ur taste & ur placement correctly which matches then u can decide & buy..
Both can shake ur room that doest mean its big & great its matter how low ur sub handle & how pleasant bass o/p it produce. as if have to spend time in watching & listening later we shouldn't feel irritation or hurting ur ears .
in budget thats good one if u can stretch can look for Rythmil/SVS/XTZ
