Going to pre-face this by saying I'm open to other subwoofer suggestions. I currently have a Q Acoustic 3060s in a 5.1 setup and have a 2.0 that could benefit from being 2.1. So great time to upgrade!
I'm currently in a very small office room that's 3.5x3x2.7m (WLH) so ~1000 cubic feet. It's very likely I'll move within a year or two and move and into a livingroom instead of an office (so presumably a bigger space). All versions will fit (snugly, PB very snug) next to my main listening position, though I'm likely to end up in a bigger space in a year or two so not
70% of my use will be movies/tv, 15% games 15% music. I also have people living with me and thin walls so less they feel is a bonus. The movie-centric use is what's pushing me to the PB-2000 Pro despite it being the largest.
SB-2000 Pro: £900
PB-2000 Pro: £1000
SB-3000 : £1250
Budget (<£1500) isn't a huge issue if worth it but I intend to buy once and eventually add a second if needs be. I was pretty settled on the SB-3000 but that ugly, ugly metal grill and the greater price disparity compared to US prices ($800 vs $900 vs $1000) making me question if it's worth the extra anyway.
Basically any nudges or guidance is appreciated because I'm just going in circles now.
