SVS how big are they

fgr41

Im about ready to pull the trigger on a new SVS and was thinking of the SVS 20-39 PCi. The question I have is, how big is it really. It's hard to judge how big it is via the pic's I have been able to find. I am also curious as to the outside of the tube, how good is the material and does it collect dirt or is it hard to clean.

If the tube doesnt work for me I was thinking of getting the PB1. I know there would be a big difference in shape but what other differences would there be. Would the tube perform different than the box?

So does anyone have some pics of their 20-39 they could post that help show its true size?

I went with the 20-39 and I can tell you that in my room (20x20) it is hardly noticeable (except when called upon for active duty!!)after you get used to it. I've got mine positioned in a dark section of the room, and with the black exterior of the cylinder it really disappears. Obviously, the height is approx. 39". As far as the circumference, think of the floor tom that comes with a drum kit...it's about that big around. I wasn't overwhelmed with the size. In fact, I was expecting something a little bigger when I ordered it.

I haven't had it long enough to determine how much dust the exterior collects, but I would imagine it would collect as much as any other piece of furniture in the room. A quick vacuuming of it with an attachment should get it looking like new.

I'm very impressed with the 20-39...it really rocks the house and sounds great.

Yeah 16x39 I know that but when i put a tape to it, yes it seems big but not HUGE like I have heard. 16 seems avg to small for a sub while 39 is rather tall.

Here is the 20-39PC+ next to an RTi70.

The sub is larger than I expected, but completely worth it. I love it, my wife loves it. It does everthing it's expected to do.

Check out my post in the sub section if you want my thoughts on the PB1! I LOVE the PB1.

The 20-39PC+ is a totally **** kicking sub that trolls deeper than sin. I hated to sell mine, actually.

Doesn't Doc have a picture somewhere with his wife sitting on the sub in a risque pose?:)

Dr. Spec

Yeah, that's the new PB2+. It's floating around somewhere. I'd repost it, but Polk now prevents posting the same picture twice and makes you hunt for the original and hotlink it. I'm too lazy.

here it is, not sure about the size of them, but they will do

I wonder if Dr. Spec has his wife wear deer antlers, so he can "hunt" her in the house.....

WOW,I can see that the good Dr. has a taste for large, good quality equipment...

fgr41

Yes the equipment he uses seems to be quite a handful.

Would they be considered a "push-pull" design?

Are you playing Double Vision again Doc????????

Dr. Spec

Yep, the good Doctor is a lucky guy!!

She's a good woman - I am very fortunate she puts up with me. It's gotta be the sub, because it can't be my winning personality.

HbombToo, clean out your PM's. I have been trying to send you a message for a week now and it says your box is full.

Dr. Spec,

Any chance of your sub detonating those Federal boxes?
