Hi guys,
I want to upgrade from my old psw10 and am wondering if this might be an improvement.

Thanks for your help.

    Probably, having a passive radiator is usually a beneficial thing. What are the specs?

    compared to what...?

    I mean, there's nothing wrong with PRs but they're not magic, either.

    I would say yes, it looks to be an upgrade from a PSW10, most subs are. :smile: However, with only 30hz spec, I would pass. What would be your budget for an upgrade, maybe we can help a bit. Are you using this for HT or music?

    budget around 150-300$.
    I use the sub only for HT. I have: Rti10, Csi3, FSi3 and...PSW10!
    I'm also looking to upgrade the CSi3 to CSi5. I'm telling just in case someone would like to get rid of one of those...;).
    I live in Canada, so shipping/shipping cost may be a problem.

    SVS PB13? But but not the ultra, it's too good.

    Wonder what SDA fans would say about that :biggrin:

    On a serious note google found me this. Seems pretty comprehensive.

    If you can wait and save a bit, there are some killer options in the ~500 range. Good luck!
