In Reply to: What are the best subwoofer makes for music, not boomy HT. (nt) posted by Self-Inflicted on October 30, 2020 at 10:02:05:
I've had both and they're different. My Vandersteens were down firing and integrated perfectly and were absolutely musical. However, they didn't do impact for HT or even rock where the kick drum hits you in the chest. In my mind, the Vandersteens were a bit too polite. Whether that is typical of down firing subs may depend on how low your speakers go with authority.
I replaced them with Velodyne 15" subs with EQ and a remote and haven't looked back. They also go lower and are quite musical with a low bass line and can shake you off the couch when awakened during an action movie. Of course, Velodyne is out of that business, so I'm not much help.
