Looking for a cheap sub...

to match with Boston Acoustic A150's on a consumer grade receiver (auxilary system). According to Boston, the a150's have a flat frequency response down to 30Hz - if you can believe them - but of course they tried to sell me the Boston PV600 sub. Budget is $300, so that pretty much knocks out the Hsu (VTF-2), Mirage and Carver (Knight Shadow) family. Any recommendations?

Thanks.

I have 2 of these. 1 I bought new the other I picked up used for $400. These can be had easily for < $500. I lived with 1 for 1.5 years, adding the second has really made the difference from a really good HT to an unbelievable HT experience. I'm not sure about using it for music as mine are dedicated to HT. I would say this sub's best quality is it's tight/quick bass, not boomy at all ( sealed cabinet design ).

I don't have experience with REL but did have at 1 time, an energy sub, a psb subsonic 6, the M&K is in a whole other league.

good luck.
