Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Did this specific comparison actually!

66.68.157.48

Ended up with 2 of the Velos for my large room. Found them a little more punchy/weighty - suspect it's the 1000 watts at work. One of the British rags did a "shoot out" of small subs recently - it included the 108e - and the Velo came out on top by a wide margin in their eyes. I didn't find it a wide margin bit to me it was noticably better. The downfiring REL might be easier to place however. The Velos have a cool equalization feature that seems to work well although the volume control is all electronic - pushing a button to move up or down and you can only tell what level you are at by counting the number of times the front light blinks - huge, ridiculous pain in the ass when you are trying to dial it in - a manual dial on the back would have been better and cheaper.

That said, I am going to go to a full range speaker vs the sub for seamlessness and appearance (WAF) - so you might see some Velos for sale somewhere soon.
