Hey,
I'm currently auditioning a pair of M3tis, planning on a full 5.1 system and I've narrowed my sub choices down to the two models mentioned.
I know they're both highly regarded brands, but I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews (consumer or "expert") on these particular models.
I've heard murmurings about the Hsu's quality control, attributed to its being manufactured in China. Anybody care to comment? Support? Refute? Bueller?
I know the SVS also has a more potent amp. But does that, along with its "Made in the USA" label make it worth the extra two bills?
Before I go blind PM-ing everybody on the board with one or the other, I'd love to hear your best pitch for or against one of these. (Preferably based on first-hand or, uh, first-ear, experience.)
My priority w/ a sub is that it's accurate and musical. It doesn't have to peel the paint off the walls or treat my neighbor's kidney stones. It just has to sound and feel great.
TIA
