upgraditis is difficult to control. You won't be able to set aside money and wait until you have enough for what you really want. You will always have to buy right then and there. Last Oct. all I wanted was a new sub, and I was limiting it to $400, I ended up spending $3000 for a sub and a few other speakers.

I am very happy to report that I have absolutely no upgraditis at all in the subwoofer department!

Why is the passive radiator such a concern? If you want great performance from a Sub and don't want the footprint of the eD then consider the SVS PB-10NSD. It's $399, is front firing and has accurate response to 20Hz.

It's 15" wide.

oh man i know your pain! i hadnt planned on upgrading anything this year.. then i got a couple of hundred quid extra overtime last month.. so said hmm.. i'll upgrade my front and centre speakers... so i ordered the next model up in manufacturer i had (mordaunt short) when the speakers arrived they were literally twice the size i had figured on doh! so i had to bring them back.. so next i got two Monitor Audio R90HD fronts.. with a r180HD centre... then i wasnt happy with the surrounds.. so i figured id move the 90s to the rear.. buy another 180hd to pair for left & right and buy a 225hd for centre.. so now i had all new speakers apart from the sub... so i started mulling over saving up for one and the monitor audio rsw12 was the target.. but as usual i couldnt wait so pulled the trigger with the credit card and now have a complete new speaker set and one pretty perplexed wife.. plus a 1200 dollar credit card bill to start saving for

still though it does all sound pretty sweet
