Svs sub : should i go with sb13 ultra or pb 13

The PB13 Ultra comes with port plugs and is designed to be used either with or without them. I would go for the PB13 ultra and try it both ways and decide which you prefer.

In addition to the previous post, the sealed version is a relatively modest 17.5 inch cube weighing 92 pounds. The ported version is a very large 22.5 x 20.5 x 27 inches and weighs in at 155 pounds. That should also be a consideration in your choice. If that is not a problem, then go for the ported version for the reason mentioned in my previous post.

I love my SVS SB13 Plus(95% same as SB13 Ultra) and would highly recommend it for application 60/40 music/HT but if size and WAF are not issue, the PB13 Ultra is the way to go for HT extension/impact with option for sealed mode for music.

Another option to think about. If you have the space,get two PB-2000's or SB-2000's for less the price than the Ultra's. Many like two subs better than one!

Which ever way you go consider purchasing a DSpeaker Antimode 8033c or 8033s to go with it. I have the 8033c on my 2039pc+, in the living room for HT purposes. The 8033c was the finishing touch that took the bass from very good to WOW!

Good Luck
