anobody have or tried the subpack?

Post by sigmund floyd » Wed Sep 11, 2013 3:23 am

this looks interesting to say the least....especially for those producing in appartment building such as myself, anybody have any experience with this to help persuade me to buy it????

I think i had the first one in the UK and its fucking great! It goes incredibly low (i mean lower than fabric's soundsystem low) and has transformed the accuracy of mixes done on my little home setup. The fact that it takes room acoustics out of the equation is phenomenal. It may not be 100% perfect, but its certainly a lot more perfect than a 21" sub would be in a bedroom, with the advantage that no-one else can really hear (certainly not out of the room).

^^^^^^video i made^^^^^^

old thread

long story short, it slaps, really hard. it's a joy to have, music sucks without it. fat 808's and sine sweeps are the bees knees. a bit expensive though. only worth it if you're going to use it for production imo.

you need to watch it peaking and slightly distorting the bass, but just before that point its frankly, magical.

It might be slightly bass overload with a hyped pair of headphones (beats, ultrasone 900's etc), but with a fairly balanced pair, its fantastic.
Yes it is slightly audible in a quiet room if you've got it pumping, though on a train or plane, you'd never notice it.

I think its a steal at $350, its studio quality engineering.

true, i don't regret paying 350 for even a minute. this thing has given me what i thought i would never have, chest rattling sub bass in my room with no people complaining. lx ones tunes are so perfect on it..lol

i can't even imagine what this thing would be like if you were rolling, i would probably just jizz in my pants.

Do you guys think this thing going to be something that sticks around for a while? I'd love to have one but don't think I'll have the means to buy one for quite some time. (Gotta get proper monitors and all kinds of other stuff first)

I'm importing some for the shop, hopefully should have them next month.
If anyone is going down to the Eurogamer expo at Earls Court the end of the month, then i'll have some demo sets on our stand.

took about 10 days once it shipped, once you've paid the £85 customs charge.

thanks for the responses and sorry for the repost ( the search on here dosn't work all the time)....and thanks difference for the video..........the fact that you have to plug it in both for power and for audio seem like it could get annoying but i think i might have to purchase
