As per my ear po kase magkaiba sila..
kaso as of now di ko pa rin nakukuha bass na gusto ko marinig from each sub.. still need tweaking.
Sir mike told me to switch sb12 to disable LfE (lowest) and 50hz (max) for the pb1000.

nice gears bro! now i understand why you don't quite like the bass from your subs, you have an almost square room and you put the subs at the corners, sobrang excited room modes nyan which would be very difficult for any bass trap to handle. try putting each sub 1.0~1.3 meters away from the side walls.

Thank you very much for all the compliments and recommendation :-)

Updated my system to MA RX6 but after few days, i decided still it is not suit for my small room and own subjective taste :-)

Rx6 is definitely a winner. Details and tight bass tops it. The problem lies with the excess bass which is sometimes too much for my ear. Just in time my friend offer me his MA gx50.

Gx50 hit all the notes im looking for. Neutral attack, Crisp details and moderate tight bass.
I want my front speaker to be good for audio and HT.
Now im a happy camper :-)

Looking forward for stereo amp & dac :)

Sir i forgot to ask the first time around, kamusta yung match nung marantz and b&w? Compared sa 1009 mo before?

hmmm.. For now because i dont have budget for stereo amp, mas okey sakin ang marantz & b&w combo para okey for audio & ht. But for HT use only, 1009 is better dahil mas crisp at forward ang attack nya which is ideal for movies. Pero definitely for audio mas okey yung marantz. I compared my marantz avr 7005 to marantz pm 6004 stereo amp and heard little to nothing difference at all. Mas okey pa for me DAC + marantz 7005 kesa marantz 6004.
