Quality small sub for HT and music


I am looking for a new sub for my theater system (which doubles for music.) I currently have: Parasound C2, Aragon 8008ST, Acurus A200x5 and A200, Cary DVD-6, Boston Acoustics Lynnfield 500L (for mains) and 300L for centers, Boston VRMX (sides), Definitive inwalls (rears) and a Boston PV1000 sub.

The Boston sub does well, but I want to improve; but don't want to break the bank! I just added a M&K MX-70B for a rear sub (which improved the coverage in the room substantially.) Now I want the next level. No big, boomy bass though.....high quality and tight are paramount. Size is also very important....must be relatively small.

On the short list is the ACI Titan II, Infinity Interlude 1.2S and M&K MX-700. Want to spend $1300 or less.

Anyone with some words of wisdom? Should I just keep the PV1000?

I am in a similar predicament. It seems like in addition to the Velodyne digital series subs, ACI and REL are the companies to check out.

You must listen to a Hsu VTF-3. Simply the best bang for your buck subwoofer made today. I have the VTF-2, but if your budget is $1300+, then the VTF-3 is the one for you. Seriously...don't think because it's only $850 it's no good. I listened to a ton of subs before purchasing my Hsu...I ended up paying FAR less, and getting a tighter, faster, clearer sub.

Email Dr. Hsu with any questions. He'll get back to you quickly. They mostly sell online, but they've started to sell through dealers. http://www.hsuresearch.com
