Well...I just paid off the balance of my layaway for my M60s and my QS8s (said to be here in 2 weeks)! AND...I'm placing my order for my SVS PB2-Plus subwoofer...please tell me I'm not crazy for ordering this monstrosity! That should arrive roughly around the same time  Well, just thought I'd let you all know. Who knows? In two weeks I may just as giddy as bigjohn?!

15x20 with 15-20 foot cathedral ceilings. It's one thing when you do sq. footage, but it really changes things when you look at the cubic footage. Not to mention that this room opens up in three areas. A hallway, the kitchen, and a balcony. So, after talking to the SVS guys, I'm the first person I've ever heard of them talking someone UP. I was originally going to go for the PB2-ISD. But, if the extra chang will make that much difference...I just got to!

With that size room the PB2-Plus is probably a good choice.

I agree. Better to have too much power than too little when a sub is concerned. That's why they have volume knobs on 'em.

Since Jack and Peter didn't say it, you're not crazy for ordering that monstrosity.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

SVS actually did talk me up too, from a 20-39PC+ to the PB2-isd. But then again with the dimensions I told them my room was about 4000 cubic feet (28x18x8).
Of course when I actually measured it came out to 2600 cubic feet (25x14x7.5).
Oh well, at least I'll have plenty of power and never have to worry about upgrading. Plus it was only $75 more and looks sweet.

Toy, my guess is the cathedral ceiling came into play with the SVS discussion and those guys are uncommonly consistent and dependable. For the little bit of extra money, the additional performance available will be comforting. You will also avoid any thoughts about needing to upgrade! Plug it in and hang on to your children.

Yeah...you know. It's just $1300 is $1300. And this is straight from my checking account! All my speakers. Everything has been done on faith. Does anyone own an SVS sub. Do you FEEL the music and movies as much as hear it? That's half of what I'm looking for.
