    Have u look at the SVS, for the price that you pay for that 505, why not consider the PB12-NSD??

    I know there is one distribution centre there in Ontario.

    Sonicboomaudio.com is the website
    Frt: Polk RTi10
    Ctr: CSi5
    Surr: Monitor60
    Sub: SVS PB12-NSD
    Yamaha RX-V3900
    Samsung BDP-1600

    :D

    This place is awesome at spending your money. All those subs are just different levels figure out your budget for a sub let us know and we'll recommend one or 10, in the end it's your money to decide what to get. You have a sweet system. If I was you I'd get the SVS 12". Save up some coin get it and never look back. If the svs is too far of a reach then so be it and pick something else.

    i would have to rent a van and pay for the gas there and back. Would be cheaper to just have it shipped. I could unpack the sub put it in the back seat of the car and gently unfold the box and put it in the trunk. Really the only option imo

    Having it shipped would definitely save cost and would allow you to better afford the PB12-NSD.

    unless i didn't like it then id have to ship it back 48$ then insurance. Would be nice to listen to it before i got it

    In comparison to the other subs you're considering, there's no chance that you won't like it. The PB12NSD is one powerful entry level sub, clean, powerful bass, that's fast enough for most's musical taste and an incredible HT sub for the money.

    Combo rig:

    Onkyo NR1007 pre-pro, Carver TFM 45(fronts), Carver TFM 35 (surrounds)
    SDA 1C, CS400i, SDA 2B
    PB13Ultra RO

    I've got the 2 of the 505 for H/T. While they are good for the $$$ but if you can swing $100.00 more , search for the Klipsch RW10-D. My Klipsch RW10-D has more deep punch and tight bass than my 505. Both the 505 and the RW10d are spec at 28Hz-+3 db. So much for spec and real life performance. ANW, both are just mediocre subs for under $400.00.

    Google Klipsch RW10d under the seller named RONCO. It's $360.00 and brand-new in factory sealed box. Why settle for used one with same price. Both the 505 and RW10d are vintage and they can be had brand new a dirty cheap.
