Thanks! Yeah, not cheap but I believe it will be worth every penny.

Are you going to buy his ultra?

I believe you are right. I can't wait for it to arrive! Although I have a shipment of cables from redco on the way too, and without that I won't be able to hook it up lol =D

Did you hear/read about the Elemental Designs A7s-650 subwoofer? I found the following quite interesting:

Yes, I've read that thread over, as well as about 100 others.

Are you no longer happy with your submersive? Big Smile

Am I no longer happy with the SubMersive? Surely not! However, there is one area that left me a bit dissapointed. Nearly all user reviews stated that the SubMersive has a lot of mid-bass impact (that kick-in-the-chest effect). However, I don't seem to be getting that effect. I also have the SubMersive located right next to the main seat and this (near-field) placement is suppose to enhance the kick-in-the-chest effect. I also read one other SubMersive owner on the AVS Forum stating the same thing so I guess I'm not alone.

Glad you're still happy with it. I realize in your situation you don't have a lot space to play with positioning... I don't suppose you have a chart for the frequency response in your room do you?
