I'm looking to add a sub for HT  anyone have any comparisons? I see the svs is about the same price as the servo sub .I recently built the av3's with the av3s also looking for speaker wire recommendations.

Are you comparing the h frame servo subs amd pb2000 or the sealed servo sub gr research. For cable i use kimber 8pr from parts connexion. Its comes in bulk length with bare ends

The servo sub kit 2 -gr-research

[Ryan0348]

The servo sub kit 2 will be more musical/ better bass definition but the svs pb2000 might play a littoe louder before it starts to bottom out or clip the amp because it has internal protection where the rhythmic will only have a light that will blink on the back side. Id say the gr would be my choice. I have 2 dual 12" h frames subs. Kit 3 and 2 lv12 rhythmic ported subs I run in the back of my room out of phase with the h frames. So as the h frames push the lv12s pull

i also had 2 of the svs pb1000 before i built the h frames. They had more output but the sound quality diff was night and day

Always go for quality, IME.  And the sealed servo sub is going to be much better quality bass than the SVS (or any non-servo sub, really).

I'm considering getting the base 12" sub from Rythmik, I don't have a lot of space for anything else unless i just build a pair of cheap 8" DIY subs, unless I can find a matching Logitech Z4 sub where the shipping isn't the same as (or more than) the unit itself... :p
If im lucky, I might be able to steal the one from my mother since its a matching unit. Just not sure if the Sprout allows for speaker outs at the same time as RCA outs... Should probably check that first..

Being stuck in a 10'×12' room & desk setup really limits my options, tbh, much as I'd want something more interesting. But its fine for now.

I have a sprout and it doesnt allow that.

[Ryan0348]

Also the base rhythmic lv12 will be back in stock tomorrow. I just him the other day for another for my wifes turn table setup in the basement with the sprout

The Sprout 100 has a mono subwoofer out that can be used in conjunction with the speaker outs. The sub out is separate from the L/R preamp outs.

[Hobbsmeerkat]

Yeah, I should have guessed it wasn't gunna work. So a single sub it is for meee! So guess Ill just work towards getting a better sub next.
The sub does work independently with either the RCA out and speaker out at least, since I used it with my Active monitors and XLS.

I also recommend the Rythmik sub.  They sound great.  But if you are limited in space, consider a Martin Logan Dynamo sub.  They have tight, musical bass.  I use 2 original dynamo's with my Magnepan 1.6's, strictly for music.  I listened to much more expensive subs  but this was more musical and blended seamlessly with my Maggies.

The Dynamo 800 and 1100 can be controlled via a phone app and they come with Anthem room correction.  You can also add wireless so you can place the subs anywhere in the room.  These are very good compact subs.

Those are a little to pricy for my needs. I'd rather get something more affordable, like the Rythmik L12, & keep the savings to build a pair of Dual OB Subs in the future once I'm ready for a full 2.2 channel setup.
But I'm not in any rush to get anything right now, unless i come across a killer deal I can't pass up.
