Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $600.00 from A&B Sound

Summary:
I was torn between the SPL1000r and this compact mini-sub. I had just sold my old CHT-12 in favour of a sealed sub of sorts. I came to the conclusion that the 1000 might have been a bit overkill in smallish apartment, so I settled on the minivee. I must say this is a pretty serious sub for such a small price and cabinet! The bass just seems unreal for the size of this sub. It has a bottem end of 28Hz and 2000 watts of dynamic power from a class D amp. A nice little package indeed. I havent listened to too much music yet, but what i have heard sounds good thus far. Tight and punchy, yet deep and very believable. The Rasclaz "Cash Crop" pounded heavily , while "Phantom Power" from the tragically hip sounded quite solid and accurate. I look at this diminutive minivee and chuckle, thinking of the old CHT-12 and its minifridge sized cabinet(very macho). But in all honesty the minivee is no laughing matter! Take a listen if your interested in a $1000ish space saving woofer.

Strengths:
in-expensive for a pretty serious sub! Pounds hard in a smallish space, sounds pretty accurate.

Weaknesses:
None so far.....
