SVS SB2000 Pro vs PB2000 Pro vs PC2000

[bigboss]

My living room is 16' X 12'4" and have a 7.1.4 system (Monitor Audio Trimless WT-280 IDC fronts and centre, WT265 side and rear surrounds and CT265 X 4 ceiling speakers), KK DXD-808 subwoofer and powered by Denon X6400H. I also have a DSPeaker Anti-Mode. It's a 10-year old system and I'm planning to gradually upgrade it.

My first target is to replace my subwoofer. I am extremely limited to subwoofer placement (only 1 place - behind my sofa in the bay window). I appreciate I won't get the best performance due to this, but it is what it is (the cables have been buried under the oak floor).

What would be ideal subwoofer for this place? SB2000 or PB2000 or PC2000? The Projector screen is on the top wall opposite the bay window. Flooring is oak. Any advice please? Thanks.

If you mainly listen to music, then go for the sealed unit, if home cinema is your main use, then go for the ported version, if you like to hide things away in the corner with something that doesn't look a big square box, go with the tower.

Whichever sub you get, it's better to have some headroom i.e. a more powerful sub running at a potion of its ability, rather than a smaller less powerful sub being run at or close to its limits. Depends on what you listen to and how loud, and whether you want to feel the bass or just have it add a bit to the low end.
