@markgonzalez2927 2 месяца назад

I don't know because 2 are still in the box. But the other 2 hit really hard. I couldn't believe that so much bass can come out of boxes so small. And the bass is really deep and and tight. That's why I purchased the second pair.

@jonathanbailie Месяц назад

I bought this sub two years ago and still love it. I have one 12" sub in each L&R tower, but the added 15 from Starke made a big difference down low. It digs deep and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. For the price, it's hard to beat. Loved the review!

@hatoraidcowboy Месяц назад

Thank you! I agree these are hard to beat for the price especially when they have the BOGO deal. Insane!

@johannjohann6523 2 месяца назад

I've not heard the Starke subs, but after seeing this video (and not being aware of Starke Sound till this video) I went to their website to check the numbers and assuming they are honest, and no reason to doubt at this point, they are good recording their speakers and subs. Very Good. Their 10 inch sub claiming a frequency response of 18Hz - 300 Hz, 350W RMS Peak is 800W. I have not verified price, but think it is below $600 which is a mid priced subwoofer. I am one to believe all subwoofers should be able to play down in the mid 20's HZ area for any 12 inch or larger subwoofer. The fact Starke is claiming below 20 HZ with their 10 inch sub is impressive as is the warranty on their products.

@hatoraidcowboy 2 месяца назад

The value for Starke Subs is great and the performance is shocking at the price. They are incredible subs and you dont pay out the wazoo. Try them out!

@skippyturtle1 2 месяца назад

I bought this sub a month ago. I replaced 3 SB1000. This thing does not disappoint. I was a little disappointed when a week later they went on sale for buy 1 get 1 half off. I sent an email to see if I could pay the difference and get the deal. No one responded. So after a couple days I sent anther email and told them to forget the first email. No response to that email either. After dealing with SVS customer support, I assumed Starke would be the same way. I guess I was wrong. The sub is pretty awesome.

I thought you also reviewed a HSU VTF-15H MK2 subwoofer but don't see it now. How do these 2 compare? I'm debating if I should wait for a B1G1 on this Starke or just buy one more HSU and stick with 2 subs.

Hey. Any bottoming out situation at higher volumes as it got only 475W continuous power?

I havent noticed it bottoming out yet. But I dont drive it at reference and I have two stacked so I’m getting more output and dont have to drive them as hard.

@johannjohann6523 2 месяца назад

And hopefully soon I too can be a customer being able to purchase one of their subs as I would like some extra bass (currently using a nice 8 inch sub) with my Surround Sound System. Don't we all? Is there really such a thing as having too many speakers for your sound system? Your neighbors probably think so. lol

How do you like the sw15 compared to your Pb4000?

@hatoraidcowboy 2 месяца назад

Well that’s not a fair comparison lol The SW15 has a bigger driver yes, but the SVS is built much better. It’s a tank with more features and customization. Overall the SVS is a better built and quality sub but at the price point of the SW15 the SW15 wins hands down with a 15” driver

The SVS is gonna be much better built with an app, but 15” over 12” I would go with the SW15 all day for the price. And you can basically get two SW15’s for the price of one PB2000 pro if you catch them on the BOGO sale

@@mephInc, that's fair, but the interface is fairly intuitive. The steepest part of the learning curve I think is taking good and useful measurements.

@@mephInc, half right. You need a mic, yeah, preferably a calibrated one, but you CAN use a cheap uncalibrated one for around $30 if you want. Tbf a UMIK-1 is pretty useful for a lot of stuff, so the expense is justified IMO, and it's not much compared to, say a grand with of subs, and it still works with any pc, assuming you have a long enough USB cable.
