[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 58853, member: 162"] Re: Subwoofer comparison SRX728 vs Vertec 4883 I'm asking several donkeys. :) Looking at the 4883 spec sheet, they don't even list the response at 1 watt - the graph is blank.The tyranny of pro sound is that virtually no one has heard more than a few products - at least at any level allowing for a basis for a well-researched opinion. The SRX728 is probably the best-known sub, not that that is saying much.I'd love subs that go down to 20 Hz, but the reality is that 80% of the gigs I do are in my standard length Chevy Express cargo van. I don't have room for a pair of Nexo RS18 subs - unless that's all I'm carrying, and the 728s are pretty big too - thus the allure of the 4883. I have to be realistic, and if the 4883 is the equal of the 728 even at the expense of some low-frequency extension, the size more than wins for my usage.My fear is that the SRX728 is measured in whole space, which means the 4883 is 3dB down from the SRX728, and therefore considerably less impressive.I'm not going to buy without hearing them, but hearing them - especially in a shootout situation relative to things I'm familiar with - is easier said than done.
