Started 2 years, 10 months ago by Warpdrv

I know it wasn't been released yet, but thought maybe someone in the know ...

Velodyne SMS-1 currently available and handles 3 subs.

Yes, let's get a compare and contrast, b/c the Velo is cheaper and available now. When is the SVS unit planned for and how does it improve on the Velo?

I think the SVS unit will be out before summer. The main difference is Audessey's technology. Whereas the SMS-1 unit optomizes bass for one position, the SVS unit uses logic to simultaneously optomize the bass for up to 8 locations. Now not all 8 locations will be EQ'd flat, some tradeoffs will need to be made, but the logic creates a best scenario for ...

Also the SVS unit appears to enable additional functionality via connectivity to a PC via the USB port (hmm, custom crossovers etc?).

It can also time correct the two subs independently

You can also better customize the settings on the SMS-1 using PC software like the free Room EQ Wizard software. Hopefully, SVS will work with the author of that program to ...

If you want to read more on the Audyssey technology, go here . It sounds like the SVS will deploy the MultiEQ XT. On this site, it appears to say that XT will only be available to trained professional installers. There is a proprietary PC client for XT that allows for all the mods to be set and then uploaded to the device. This technology is also built into ...

any idea about a rumble filter on the SVS? I have an SMS1 I am going to sell because it limits my subs (DIY) ability in the 10-5Hz range.

Yes, you will setup MCACC first from "within" the AS-EQ1 software with bypass engaged. Have you read the manual?
