Had a few G's laying around so I went and bought 2 SVS PC ultra 13's. I think these subs are fabulous but since my rig is 2 ch stereo (music only) I find I'm getting 90% satisfaction from my 2 PS 1000 subs.

With all 4 subs on I'm in a rock concert type of mood.:eek:

So unless I really want "monster bass", my ultras are not used, which is most of the time. I could sell them, but knowing me, once they're gone I would probably miss them and buy more.:rolleyes:

    So, what's your point? You wanted to let everyone know that you could afford to spend thousands on gear that you don't really use? Ok, congratulations! :wink:

    You could take it that way. I see it as the upgrade bug, but in this case the improvement, which indeed it is, was not neccessary for my audio enjoyment. To be honest their appearance gives me the most pleasure.It made me realize how good my paradigm subs actually are:wink:
