SVS PB-1000 or SVS SB12-NSD for 12 x 12 x 10 room

[Hatredcopter]

Looking for a new subwoofer and I've narrowed it down to just 2 subs now:

SVS PB-1000 (27,000 php)
SVS SB12-NSD (31,000 php)

Room:12 x 12 x 10

So far these are what I've found available locally. Considering the price which of these would be best? Looking for that home theater "feel" but I use it in music and movies.

Current setup:
Receiver: Wharfedale AVR 5110
Front: Wharfedale Diamond 10.1
Center: Wharfedale Diamond 9.CS
Rear: Wharfedale WH-DFS
Sub: Wharfedale Powercube SPC-10 - Defective

I might be able to add a 2nd subwoofer (Wharfedale SPC-10) once I have it repaired.

You could go PB 1000 since your use would mainly be HT.

Forgot to mention I also use it for games

I am using the pb2000 for movies and music. Extremely good.

I bet it is but it's out of my price range

Amongst these, I would prefer PB1000.
For HT/music use, I would always prefer a Ported sub at this price range. If purpose is "only" music then I'll go for a sealed.

If you can find and add an other Wharfedale SPC-10, would be good.. It would make dual, identical subs..

For music, u can consider Rythmik Audio sealed subs.. like L12 model, great sounding.

You can fix the existing sub and find another Wharfedale Powercube SPC-1.

The above will do wonders in your setup. rather than going with a single SVS pb 1000.

If its between svs pb 1000 and NSD 12, then I would choose the NSD 12 for the better driver and power.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I auditioned both pb-1000 and sb12-nsd today and I went with the sb12-nsd due to the better performance in music in my opinion.

Wont it be an overkill to use 2 subs in a 12x12 room?

Congratulations. How much is the cost of the sb12?

Nope.. Benefit of dual subs is producing even bass across the room..

Most articles on the net, suggest dual subs regardless of room size..

I have a slightly wider room than the OP, 14 x 11 and run dual subs (Front corners). Bass in the room is defnetly good than what i have heard before without sub's..

It cost me 31,000 php, 2 thousand more than the PB-1000 at 29,000 php.

@elangoas
I have read the same things about 2 sub setup. But that is long down the road for me. maybe in the next year. for now my next in line is to upgrade my cheap receiver.
