Hello!
Thanks to this site and Amir's reviews I've recently become enlightened and upgraded to a MiniDSP SHD with Hypex Ncore NC250MP Audiophonics amplifier. It's sounding excellent, but the clarity and room correction has highlighted a lack of bass in the Evos (rated down to 44hz only).
So I'm thinking of adding a sub budget <£500 now or wait and spend a few hundred more later.
My main use is music though it is also used for films.
I'd love and XLR input but they seem rare.
Having looked at comments on here and the spreadsheet comparison here are the options I'm currently looking at:
SVS pb 1000 (I can get for £380 which seems like a bargain).
SVS pb 1000 pro (worth saving for?)
Monoprive Monolith 10/12 Thx although not available in the UK at the moment.
Another thought was whether it's better to invest the cash in upgraded floorstanders? But I am very happy with the mid/high frequencies of the Evos and supposedly they perform as good as speakers a fair bit more expensive.
There's also a question of ported or sealed. Sealed is supposed to be marginally better for music however at my budget the sealed version might not reach 20hz.
All input welcome, and thanks to this forum for all the valuable info!
