Congrats and welcome to AC.  The b12 is certainly a big sub.  It is well suited for 2 channel and HT applications.  I decided I did not need it with my F30's, though.  Plenty o' bass.

FYI, there's no need to post into 2 areas of the forum for general comments.  Whichever post gets legs will remain active.  Good luck.

the bass becomes a bit thicker
thicker bass // warmer bass:    is that better than leaner bass

If it's purely for a 2 channel music system, I'd take a listen to the ACI subs.  IMO they're much more musical and easier to integrate.

Norman,
Sorry but I can't interpret your questions.  You have a nice sub and you'll need to tune it to your room.  There is a lot of information on the web that can provide instructions to blend a sub with speakers.  Best of luck.
