    Thanks, yes an upgrade of sorts is taking place. Moving overseas and into an apartment so I'm kind of downsizing as well. Looking at a bookshelf setup based around either the Ascend Acoustic Sierra-1, Usher S-520, B&W 605 etc and a small pair of sealed subs like the Velodyne SPL-800r, Polk Micropro 1000 or Aperion Bravus 8D. Undecided on components so far expect for the BR player which will be the new OPPO BDP-83 and I'll be getting a Salamander Triple 20 A/V cabinet.

    They are comparable to the Bic H-100 which I used to have, for $229 they are a bargain. The piano black end caps and cherry finish do give it a classy look, the cherry is just a little lighter than my M70. They aren't sub 20hz monsters and they are under-ported IMO(single 3.5" rear port) but I don't listen to them loud enough to have noticed any port noise so far. I've measured commendable output down to 23hz in my room however.

    Did you say in the original post that you have 3 subwoofers etup? One velodyne, and 2 PA 120's?

    That sounds like overkill. I'm curious the sound that would output.

    Good luck on the move!

    I checked with fed-ex today and it's going to be about $45/ea to ship them, obviously that ends up being more than you can pick them up new. I'm probably just going to pull them off here and see if I can get them sold locally on craigslist. Sorry

    The velodyne is an subwoofer eq system, not a sub. In my room multiple subs are needed as it's odd shape and fairly large. Ideally I would have four of these subs in this room if I wasn't moving. My last two DIY subs I had in this room where roughly 3x the size of these current subs and I could hit 118db at the seats before the amp would clip (behringer EP2500 450wx2).
