sonodyne roarr 210

[manu george]

Actally I have posted threads to get advise for a good subwoofer under 20k.after that I purchased roarr 210.but it comes with class d amplifier(older roarr 210 is class ab).if any member experienced with the new roarr 210 please share your experience.

 

[drkaushik]

But the website doesn't say so. It's only the SLF sub which has a Class D amp.

 

[manu george]

they changed all thei models to class d amp.in their brochure they are saying class d

 

[jaudere]

Don't worry much about tech specs if you are happy with sound. There is nothing wrong with class D amps when they are well designed. They are much more efficient that claas A or AB. Some audiophiles rate it lower than class A/AB for a full range streo amplifier but a sub produces very narrow frequncy band and class D shouldn't be an issue.

from my experience roarr 210 has more punch than wharfedale sw150.I any one can share their experience please let me know.I saw the slf200 subwoofer having the same design and driver.but dont know about how it sound.

 

[jaudere]

Am thinking about Roarr 210 myself. How much did you pay for it?

SLF 200 & the upgraded version SLF 210 v2 is better than Roarr 210. In my opinion SLF210 is their best Sub for 25K. My brother owns this for more than a year & its performance is simply superb.

If you liked the Roarr 210, you will defnetly like the SLF200. Try yourself & let us know.

I got roarr 210 for 15k.sonodyne 1501 for 9.5k and c2401 for 5.5k.

 

[manu george]

I have a plan to buy slf210 but its a kind of overkilling(250w slf 210) to me.my meighbours are complaining.

 

[jaudere]

Where did you get 210 for 15k? I was quoted 19.5k by dealer. Can you share details?

@Jaudere - If u want to buy Sonodyne target the month of January. They give 26% discount!

 

[jaudere]

Will keep a watch. Do they have clearance sale ? One issue I have with Roarr is that it does not have speaker level inputs. I am going to connect it to stereo amp and not AVR. In case variable line out of my Pace amplifier does not work, I will need to use speaker level inputs.

Congrats on your purchase. Please post your experience once you complete the burn-in process.

Myself targetting the Sonus 2605 by this year end. & if possible the entire HT package.

[jaudere]

[manu george]

only there is rca inputs left right.if you are looking for out also.go for wharfedale sw 150.it cost 27k in hifimart.it costs 22k in kerala.

I bought my 210 in jan 2011.It's awesome,kicks good bass.
Good to see SONODYNE getting a fan club in this forum.

Which DAC cable are you using.Does the bass improve with sub cable ,other than what is supplied with SUB?

Good to see SONODYNE getting a fan club in this forum.

There are not many in this forum who would prefer Sonodyne as their first choice. True everybody have their own choices but very few ppl here appreciate the Sonodyne range. I had bought a pair of Diamond 9.2 1.5 yrs ago... because Sonus range didn't have their 1501 then :sad:.

I like the Sonodyne for the performance to price ratio hyeah:

BTW Sonus 1501 is nothing but the Sonus 2605 minus the 2 X 6inch woofers. The midrange driver + Tweeter. So i am guessing it should be a very good product for 9K.

I kept my sub in a 400sq ft room.I set the sub volume 40%.it shakes the entire room.please let me know about the low end response (under 40hz) of the roarr 210
