Which sub would you recommend
The Klipsch SW-450 or SW-110

Both seem to be evenly matched

the Klipsch SW-450 has a Class D amp
and the Sw-110 has a BASH amp

thats the only difference i can see.

The 110 has thd @ 2%, i really dont know what it means in real world, but just trying to compare, also the dimensions and the driver of 110 are different. Sw 450 has better db levels 115. Check if there is any price difference, go for the one which is costlier, which may be better.

Class D amps are more efficient than BASH amps though I am not sure what a BASH Hybrid is. Here efficiency means that a large %age of the output will not be lost to heat when the amp is at work. Typically Class D amps run at 85% or higher efficiency. So a 400 watts will give you about 340 watts peak power. BASH generally are about 60-70% efficient. In other words, BASH amps require more power to produce the same output as a class D amp.

I am still torn between the two,
However I am planning on upping my budget and may go in for the Klipsch Sw 112

HSU STF2
HSU VTF1
have to ship through borderlinx...comes to 32K & 37K respectively.

ShAQ,

Dude we have spoken about the HSU before .
However do to the really hgh cost of shipping i have decided against going in for it .
I have also heard that HSU has gone down in quality and there has been several complaints about SUbs dying out.

This could or could not be true.
But dont want to risk it with hard earned money

I recently got hold of the SystemAudio Se200 which retails in India for about 90k
I got it from a Hifiian. He was nice enough to ship it to me for an audition in my room setup.
the deal is if it does not meet my expectations I ship it back to him. I still have to run it through its paces.
However if it does meet my expectations/requirements i pay him for it .
