Subs - Blu-ray Forum

SPH · 02-13-2009, 03:41 PM

I am working on a limited budget. We live in a townhouse for a little while longer until we can build and then i will build a real HT room.

I have an onkyo 605m monitor 60's, cs2, rt1's ( I think they are polk towers with a single 6" and a tweeter from 99) and tsi surrounds.

I currently have a klipsch ksw 10 and it is ok. I want to get 2 new subs (12") We listen to music ( I am a musician) and love movies. I will eventually move the 60's to the back and get something else up front, but not sure what or when. Anyone have some good suggestions to add subs?

I wanted to add I prefer the sound of down firing

What he said. Also, downfiring is perfect if you have kids and they like to get into stuff.

I am thinking somewhere in the $650 range, total.

I have just always like down firing or reflex cabs

You sound like a good candidate for dual A2-300's. Congratulations!

Seriously though, the A2-300 is a down-firing sub and is an excellent option. Two of them would significantly even out bass response in all seating positions too.

For now.

Better hurry if you want the down-firing sub.

Another good option would be Hsu's lineup. They're all down-firing. www.hsuresearch.com

He did say he wanted two subs though so I recommended the eD's there. If his budget was just for one sub, then I'd suggest an HSU or AV123 sub.

Nah i want a pair...When i get in my house I will have 4

But I will also do separates and passive subs with big power

after reading the thread on them, I would hate to put 700 back on a card i just paid off

I am going to walk away from the computer now

There are Hsu options to get two subs for about that price.
