#87 Perlisten Audio R212s: $5,000 eBay
Same family: the Perlisten Audio R10s (smaller subwoofer, estimated 3.8/5), the Perlisten Audio R12s (smaller subwoofer, estimated 3.9/5), the Perlisten Audio R15s (smaller subwoofer, ranked lower, estimated 4/5), the Perlisten R210s (smaller subwoofer, estimated 4/5) and the Perlisten Audio R18s (smaller subwoofer, ranked lower, rated 4.1/5).
Pros: A sealed dual 12 inch subwoofer with strong, punchy upper bass for movie effects and music, plus XLR and RCA inputs. Independent CEA-2010 testing records 102.7 dB at 20 Hz and 119.2 dB through 40-80 Hz. The sealed enclosure with 2x 12” (305mm) drivers delivers substantial upper-bass output for movie effects and music.
Cons: Deep-bass output is more limited than the strong 40-80 Hz result suggests, so it is not the right choice when the lowest movie effects are the priority. The 599.4H x 408.9W x 500.4D mm cabinet and 48.1 kg mass still require deliberate placement and calibration.
Is the Perlisten Audio R212s right for you?
