Cool SVS Close to World Domination.

Are SVS close to World domination?

Well, not quite but they have got 2 of their subs - the PB10 & PB12 Plus2 - in HCC's latest issue (131) in the top 5 subs gear guide at the back.

We just need some reviews of BK now? Then we can knock the MJ ref. 200 off . However these mags love these subs with all manner of tom-foolery. Therefore, I suppose the PB10 will have to go

Don't forget that HCC have only tested the budget SVS models as they haven't yet seen an Ultra or a B4 (or whatever it's called this week)

It certainly rules over the Yamaha YST 305

i think... given the choice, i would go for either 10 pb12-ultras or a few B4's over the overpriced velodynes

What I want to know is, is there any benefit of the 1812 over getting 1 X DD18, & 1 X DD12? Which would be considerable cheaper, I believe.

Well, whatever the answer, spending 10K is & complete
