[QUOTE="Emil Gawaziuk, post: 63495, member: 297"] Re: Subwoofer comparison SRX728 vs Vertec 4883 Well. Tell y'all what. One of the rigs I drive and hang quite frequently just happens to contain 4 of the 4883 subs. This is going to be a subjective observation, nothing measured, just strictly a performance observation on the boxes in question, in real world use. They are powered off a single iT12000, 2 per channel, in a JBL Vrack. The other 2 amps are driving 6 of the 4886 per side in the hang. For what they are, they do work quite well. In their intended use, which a pair directly under the array frame up in the air atop the 4886. Fills in the gap down to 65ish Hz rather nicely. At a decent level, say 95-98dB, they keep up pretty well to 6 of the 4886 for most of what one would expect these boxes to be doing. Light duty, smaller stuff. More often than not, we add 4 of the VRX single 18" underneath per side to fill in the low end and give it more wampum (or in the case of the past weekend, I stuck a single VDosc dual 18" per side in there. Worked nicely). Still, the 4883 is a solid little box. But personally, if you are doing higher level and more rawk type shows, you will be happier with the 728. And if you are rolling with a stack of 4886, then you will be very OK with a pair of the 83 and 6 86 per side for the most part, keeping in mind that the 83 are there to fill in a big chunk of the 60-250Hz spectrum that just isn't there on the 4886 boxes (hey....they are 6.5" drivers. remember) and you will have a bigger smile having something that can move some air reliably on the ground.
