LOL! still one of my favorite movies of all time... :)
but seriously... i wouldn't really even need the 15's... i'd settle for dual 12's in bamboo... put one in the front and one in the back of the room... i could get a reasonable chunk of the cost back by selling my paradigm...
it's his own fault that we want the bamboo finish... :p

Very nice, but two weeks too late for me. :-((

Serious. If he didn't make speakers that look so freaking cool, we wouldn't want subwoofers to match them!
Actually, what I like best about the D15 is that it could pass as an end table. Of course, I still want two...gotta have symmetry. :eek:
Re: Wishing a warm welcome to Rythmik Audio
This is great news!!! I almost pulled the trigger to go with the HSU UL-15's but decided to wait until I hear more about what Dave will be offering. Anyone know how the F-15 compares to the UL-15's? Any chance of getting the F-15 in piano black (F-15 SE) to match our PB Sierras?

Piano black IS the standard finish.

Sorry, I meant the F15. Right now, it's only in walnut or black oak.

Ah. The finish is most likely the main factor in the price difference between the F15 and the D15. Other than one being front firing and the other down firing. I would think they are equal performance-wise.

Yup, since both uses the same components. The reason I'm trying to stay away from down firing subs is because I live in a high rise condo. I currently have the Sierras matched with a SVS PC plus. I don't know the physics behind it but tested with my neighbors downstairs using down firing vs front firing subs. They are able to hear the bass travel of the SVS downfiring a lot more in their unit even though it sounds the same in my condo. The weird thing is, the PC plus even has a base plate. So to prevent myself from worrying so much everytime I watch a movie with bass, I've decided to just get 2 front firing subs. I would definitely want it in PB finish to go with my PB Sierras though.

Hi Dave,
I know this is kind of early but I have to ask. Would you consider making a front firing sub with an 15" driver in PB (F15SE)? This woofer is too pretty to be pointed downwards and not seen. I want to see this woofer move when it shakes my home.

Weird, I always thought it wouldn't make a difference, most bass being omnidirectional and all. You could try getting a subdude to place underneath.
