B&W asw 300 or 500 for music with DM302s ?


I have a very modest stystem - an onkyo 8511 reciever, DM 302 fronts....which subwoofer would you guys reccomend (I will be using it 80% for music, 20% movies) ? I listen to a large variety of music from rock and hiphop to classical and jazz. I am looking at the asw 300 and 500 but am open to other suggestions as well. thank you.

any other suggestions ? what about setup ? will the asw500's lack of adjustable crossover weaken its integration with the 302s ? I think the 302s go down to 72 +/-3 and around 60 +/-6. the 500 is crossed over at 80, while the 300 is adjustable. any setup tips ? I have no preamp outs so I will either run the speakers/sub parellell or run the 302s from the speaker outs of the sub.

Hififreams - why were you dissapointed with the 500 ?...any specific issues ?

thanks for any help you can give me.
