Need advice on subwoofer for maggies
I was thinking of trying a pair of SVS with my Focal 1008 monitors. They offer a free home trial along with free shipping to and fro so hard to beat. I have not heard them so I can't comment on the sound but they do seem to get good reviews and are very affordable at least IMO. https://www.svsound.com/ Chuck |
fwiw - The "no cost" home audition supported by SVS is a great idea. I run a pair of SVS SB1000s with Totem Forests (as well as Silverline Prelude Plus) floor standers. Support from SVS was very good before and after the sale. One died and they provided a replacement under warranty, no problems. I found these subs very flexible with continuous adjustment for phase (not just a 0/180 degree toggle switch) along with crossover and gain. They integrated easily and other than a blue led when active, call no attention to themselves. Can't predict how easy integration with Maggies or Focal monitors will be but other than your time, not much to lose if they don't work out. |
See if you can audition one of these: http://www.hsuresearch.com Read the FAQ. Look at the product selection. Maybe you can arrange something. |
I must say I’m VERY impressed so far with these suggestions. I did purchase a SVS SB4000. I must say it exceeded my expectations. Incredible response and solid sound. So far I’m loving it. I’m still working with room placement and tweaking via app (super handy) but I think it’s a keeper. Thanks for the suggestion. |
Interesting. I also have a pair of .7's. My system is set up in my son's old bedroom and so it's in a smaller space. I'm using a pair JL Audio Dominion d 108's and to me, they're a perfect match for the .7 Maggies. http://www.jlaudio.com/d108-ash-home-audio-dominion-powered-subwoofers-96281 |
