[QUOTE="Sean Zurbrick, post: 75117, member: 208"] Re: SRX718 to 'what powered/active sub?' I tend to agree. I've used primarily band pass designs in the past. The output versus size is impressive, but the quality of bass overall just isn't as good. If you try to EQ it to sound better you're generally making a cut that takes the SPL down and you have to be careful not to bump up frequencies outside the bandpass tuning or it sounds "farty". The result is you just can't tune to taste as easily, if at all. It's the trade off I've lived with due to space available for transport and output needed. That said, having multiple presets is nice as their optimizing the DSP to get different characteristics. That's not a common thing. My new FBT subs have deep and punch as well and there is a noticeable difference between the two. [/QUOTE]
