Hi everyone,
I'm currently asking myself if there is a noticeable difference in terms of performance between studio and HiFi subs?
While I was always interested in active speakers and headphones I never cared that much about subs.
More precisely would anybody say that you get more for you money in the studio or HiFi range when we're talking about subs?
As I already said I do care about studio equipment so I know models (didn't listen to them) like the Neumann KH750, Genelec 7350 or ADAM Sub10.
Advantage of studio subs (imo): balanced in- & outputs
Disadvantage of HiFi subs (imo): only RCA
Features differ from brand to brand.
What about brands like SVS or KEF? I know this question may be tricky because both categories of subs are dictated by your type of speakers. If you have a pair of KEF LS50, you likely get a sub like the KC62 because implementation and inputs/outputs are better fitting.
But would anybody think that, let's say in the 1000-1500$-range, in terms of audio quality, you get better performance with a studio sub (e.g. ADAM, Neumann or Genelec) or a HiFi sub (e.g. SVS or KEF)?
Cheers
