Velodyne CHT-12R(DLS-4000) vs DefTech Prosub 200TL vs Wharfedale SW-300

eric gutierrez New member Username: Ericag_ph Post Number: 1 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 04:00 GMT I'm trying to decide which sub to get: US$620 Velodyne CHT12R (DLS-4000) US$510 Wharfedale SW300 US$460 Definitive Technologies Prosub 200TL Room size = L13' x W10' x H8.5' Concrete walls, solid wooden floor. Subwoofer usage 99% for movies. Speakers: Wharfedale Diamond 8.4/C/DFS Receiver: Yamaha RXV-2095 Unfortunately I am only able to demo the Prosub 200TL and nothing else Any suggestions/comments/tips/experience on the subs would be great. Currently I am leaning towards the SW300. Any idea if this has a protection mechanism? Price is "almost" irrelevant, as sound quality/reliability will swing the decision

I prefer them over the Def Techs which I think are too boomy and not responsive enough for staccato passages. The Velodynes are great if you are on a budget, but for that price, I think the HSU is a lot better.
