@@danbuelna722 rythmik. Best bang for the buck. Best sound quality. They will match beautifully.

I don't even know what that means. Translation failed you my friend.

I had a pair of JL Audio F113's in the past. Decent little subs for sure.

How would you compare the F113v2 with ur current Paradigm setup? Also have you tried REL subs…over high level. They’re pretty neat!

@@MusclesAVS Hi buddy. Would like to ask you about your current stereo system setup. Do you mind sharing the full specs? Thanks

@@Novilicious are you asking me? If so, I can't tell the difference hence I'm using both simultaneously in stereo mode.

@@tomastoth3839 Paradigm Persona 9H's + Persona Center. AVM90 and Anthem STR amp as well as a McIntosh MA12000 Pre. Oppo 205 and Hifirose 150b. LG 77" OLED PS5 and Paradigm XR13's subs.

All paradigm still. Paradigm subs too. I haven’t even purchased any audio gear in over a year. This hobby for me is endgame. I moved on to Other hobbies and enjoy this setup daily still.

​​@@MusclesAVSThank you so much. I will listen to them. Upgraded my home-theater 2 times and just want to do it one more time. So the final one!

@@MusclesAVS Hey man. I've heard the Paradigm Founder 120H (was the best from Paradigm they had in my Hifi-Store). They sound really amazing. In your opinion: do the 9H sound much better? I will test them anyways, but i don't know where actually (Germany). Greetz

@@MrMichaelEsser Yes, much better sound quality. Is the difference worth it? That is up to you and your budget.

​@@MusclesAVSThx for answering man. Maybe I will ASK something more in a couple of weeks!

Pros for Rythmik. Cost is much lower and they are faster and more accurate. They don’t have the low end of the JTRs. If budget is no concern I would go with JTR for movies. They have significantly more output than the rythmiks. If I were movie focused I’d go RS1.

@@MusclesAVS I really appreciate your response and value the fact that you've owned both!!!! I've been looking for videos of someone who's had both and you literally have both in the same room at the same time 😁. Saving my pennies for RS1 it sounds like

Also you might check out KEF Blade for music

Replied on your other comment.

It’s glorious

I have an anthem STR amp in the rack under the avm90.

@@MusclesAVS ohh, right on. You have an awesome setup sir!! 👍

Probably not. The ULF has a few more DB output under 20hz. You won’t feel it unless it’s pushed hard.

Thank you man, your experience and genuineness help a lot 👌

I actually settled on paradigm XR13s. Much better than the JL Audios I had. Great little subs with a huge punch and amazing sound quality.

Marina by BDI

awesome thanks. Out of curiosity, why did you decide to go with a tv and what size TV do you have again? I have some martin logan f200's which are monster size and I always have a back and forth in my head that If i turn it up Id want to be farther back to now blow my ears out, but farther back and its not as immersive because of the tv distance. @@MusclesAVS

@@frankbuckley9774 I have a 77” LG OLED. I may get a 98” OLED when they become more mainstream.

I just looked them up. They aren't full range. The low end would not hit my criteria for what I was going for. These speakers are more of a budget speaker. I was looking for something otherworldly. I am sure they are nice, but I sincerely doubt they would be able to hang with the Persona 9H's.

Downgraded in what way? Output? Sure. Everything else…nope.

Yes. And now I’m all paradigm.

@@MusclesAVS You mean you ditched the Rythmiks? Just curious. Have you ever heard either Seaton or Deep Sea Sound subwoofers?

@@MeTuLHeD I didn’t want to ditch the rythmiks. I moved closer to the beach and I didn’t need 4 subs. I wanted a really good, small sub so I kept the XR13s. I have not heard either.

@@MusclesAVS Yeah. The truly high performance subs are very imposing physically. Hard to blend with the decor for sure.

@@MeTuLHeD yeah, I don’t think I’ll ever go back down that rabbit hole. I experienced them and the novelty wore off.

Well he’s been dead for almost 2 years so I don’t think that’s a concern any longer.

@@MusclesAVS sorry to read that, just a heads up.

NordOST

@@MusclesAVS no wonder you got back to me pretty quick. With cables like that I would do too. You make me eat my fucking words 😄 Yeah man nice job mate 👍

I sold them to a friend. He really wanted them and I was just storing them. I loved them though.

20k? That’s for one lol. You are entitled to your opinion. I grew tired of auditioning speakers. The 9Hs have never really been negatively reviewed by anyone. To me, they were absolutely a class apart. Everyone is entitled to their opinions. It did what I wanted it to do.

I have actually never heard the 210RT's, I doubt they are much different from my 212RT's, I believe they are less sensitive if I recall correctly. Persona's vs JTR's isn't a fair fight, they cost like 6x as much. JTR's are the king for movies as far as I am concerned. I don't really show off for people so super loud movies isn't something I am going after. I like to have a great music experience with my thoughts in my own space...by myself. Persona's are like an amazing concert for one....spellbinding.

Im running the paradigm xr13s. I’d say the f18s have more tactile feel but the paradigms are smaller and are extremely tight sounding. I’m all about small powerful subs now.

Thanks for the kind words. The stand is called the marina by BDI furniture.

@@MusclesAVS thanks for letting me know. Too bad it’s a discontinued model, I was going to jump all over that. I’ve retrofitted my current stand to work for me and it’s nice, but definitely not as functional as the Marina. I really liked hearing about your upgrade journey. Have you ever owned and PSA subwoofers?

@@SunnySkiesInAZ I actually haven't. I called Tom (owner) and he actually recommended a competitor for my use. Seemed like a super knowledgable guy and truly wants whats best for the end user. I am not opposed to his subs, I am just at a different point in my life and I am no longer chasing the LFE dragon.

@@MusclesAVS yeah, you’re definitely racing Formula 1 with that setup, I might be Friday night rice burner at my local track! I can’t stop looking at your rack, never thought I’d say that to another dude! The Anthem processor and amps are so slick!

No idea

@@MusclesAVS ok thanks

I'm not super into HT I am more of a sound quality guy. HT can be done pretty cheap and pretty effectively because they don't have particularly good sound. I had JTRs, those are pretty much movie only speakers. I did try the founders, they are good but the Personas are much better.

I would love to have big ESL's again someday in a separate room (if I could ever afford that in Cali) for female vocals and piano music. They are simply amazing when dialed in correctly.

I would actually say no. Depending on the size of your room this is more likely a lateral move. Go JTR ported instead of JTR sealed. Movies need more output. RS1 is likely very similar to pb16 above 30hz and well below it below 30hz.

Thanks so much for recommending ULF. I got two 2400ULFs, and no regrets thus far. Really fattened up my speakers' bottom end on bass-heavy music, and far as movies, love the effortlessness when compared to the PB4000s, which sounded warbly down low. Not blaming SVS though, I hadn't retuned when unplugging the ports. I like how tall the JTRs are, so I can experiment with flipping them upside down and see what I like more.

I haven’t heard the Perlistens. I’ve heard they are good. They don’t have the frequency response of the 9Hs. There is also a huge cost difference. Not really a fair fight. The personas are very hard to beat.

You ever pick up one or two yet? I wonder how this compares to the Studio Sub 15 or Sig 15. Love mine and don't need to "upgrade" unless they give up the ghost 😅

Just figured since I no longer owned it it wasn’t an accurate representation of what I was doing.

I moved. I am in a whole new house. I did acoustic panels but this is a modern house. I am only willing to do so much visually. I will say it does sound very good but I don't listen at insanely loud volumes either.

Are they personas? Every speaker has different recommended parameters.

@@MusclesAVS No, I currently have some Klipsch RP series, but I have been looking into paradigm, kef, ML for my next upgrade.

yeah, I am not brand loyal at all. I don't see myself jumping from these speakers. They are just too damn good. Truly full range is the way to go.

I am currently running McIntosh Amps and an Anthem STR for my center channel.

Ahh I see you picked up those new paradigm subs, what’s your thoughts? How do they compare to the Rythmiks?

I had dual RS1's and dual RS2's. I now have Dual G25HPSE's by Rythmik and Dual XR13's by Paradigm.

Yup. Was able to get them dialed in. Very bright and punchy bass.
