"Quick anecdote - I have two TV1512s, so nothing close to what most you guys are rocking (my room is pretty small, so at least got that going for me). Anyway, had an electrician finishing some work today and he had already commented on my "huge" subs lol. So I fired up 2049 (only to about -18 MV), and before we even got to the big intro bass drop, he reflexively blurted out "Oh, ****!" and stumbled a bit as the whole room shook."

"Our previous sub in this room (before we bought your TV1512) was a SVS PB12nsd (the SVS is also a front firing ported sub). It took me about a year before I got the setup right with the SVS. It only took me about a month to get the setup right with your sub."

"I've had my dual TV1813m for at least a couple weeks now and very impressed with the bass performance. Compared to my previous front set up of dual PB 3000 & rear corner PB16, the TV1813m's have more output and a different sound signature in the audible range (>18Hz for me)."

"Update...I went with two TV1813's instead. NOW I have to figure out what to tell the wife. This is gonna be good."

"I couldn’t afford duals to start with so I just went with the best single subwoofer I could afford....That single Tv1813m has served me very well the last year. The difference in overall bass levels, extension and especially sound quality vs. my previous 12” subwoofer was huge."

"At one moment you will be shocked at its speed and precision, while in the next you will be blown away by its ULF rumble or midbass kick. This sub truly does it all, and honestly, I’m not sure what Tom will come up with next to improve on it. Perhaps a 50-inch driver made of dark matter? I finally followed the advice of the subwoofer enthusiasts on this site, “Buy the biggest sub you could fit in your space.” I could honestly say, I am happy I did. Please buy this sub (if you could fit it)!"

"I almost didn’t buy my PSA TV IPAL 21 because I couldn’t find any CEA test results. Long story short, after several emails back and forth with Tom, I decided to take a chance on my first PSA sub. I can tell you that in my dedicated HT rm 2,400 cu ft, my ears gave up before my sub did..."

"Anyhow...I still love my dual TV21 IPALs. Huge smile everytime I fire up a good movie. They absolutely pound my space, and I couldn't be happier about the purchase. They sound amazing.

If anyone here is on the fence about a PSA sub, get it. Quality product, and probably the best customer service to exist in this day and age."

"I love these subs and they are definitely end-game. Being that they are 21 inch they have the ability to go low but still handle any type of movie or music as needed. I would say in the theater room I am 50% movies and 50% music. These subs nail them for both modes. Super clean and powerful. I have these in the basement and I am not kidding the entire house rumbles when I put the volume too high. I'm starting to realize with subs going overkill is the way to go."

"Suffice it to say, I absolutely love them. I upgraded from s3600is. These play cleaner, deeper, and louder. I was flat down to 10Hz with the s3600is and I’m good to 6 with the s42s. There is more tactile feel in the mid bass and obviously more tactile feel where there is no audible sound below 20Hz...Simply put - they are everything I hoped they would be. They are endgame subs for me. In my space I can’t fit more or bigger - and even if I could - I’m not sure what more it could accomplish."

"Seriously enjoying my S42 IPAL. So much better than the SVS SB16-Ultra it replaced that it isn't even funny. Still haven't gotten the bass traps I ordered and just dialed it in using Audyssey SubEQ. I have it on the 4th white mark on the gain dial. Any higher than that and the dishes in my cupboards rattle. Plenty of low end on this puppy. Played Tron Legacy and that put a huge smile on my face. Thank you Tom from the bottom of my LFE. Gonna boot the server up this weekend and que up Blade Runner 2049 and Oblivion."

"The S42 is ridiculous. It does EVERYTHING amazing except being easy to move around. 

more ULF than >98% of vented subs✔

infinite clean, crisp midbass ✔

only 24" tall✔

inert cabinet very useful in living spaces✔

add cost of drivers, amp, cabinet, HW, DSP, shipping, warranty and you realize you can't DIY for less."

"...Great customer service PSA! Can’t recommend them enough! I will post more after some more time with this little gem. Two S1512's in my 2100 cu ft living room connected to another 1900 cu ft room, provides more than enough bass for me. With the high sensitivity of these new woofers, output is awsome. I didn't take any measurements (I really want to learn REW) but the gain controls are both set to around the 10 o'clock position. I then run the subs 3 db's hot in the AVR. I notice much more bass content than I ever did with my last sub (Rythmik F15) and these things are gorgeous in the Black Ash cabinet."

"Well, the S1512 arrived today, and wow...just wow. I know I'm coming from a MUCH cheaper sub, but it's good to know that my room limitations weren't the biggest factor. Pretty much exactly what I was looking for, nice tight bass...and it seems to integrate really well with my Klipsch RF-5s. I don't have any room measurement tools...but I've been "tuning" the sub with The White Stripes "Elephant" and Cake "Pressure Chief."
