Subwoofer opinion badly needed!


Hi. I'm looking for a sub to be used primarily for MUSIC (say, 98% of the time), that costs under $500, and will be used in a small/mid-sized room (approx. 18x12') with the following: Harmon Kardon AVR20II receiver Infinity RS225 (reference series speakers) I've had the following recommended but am still uncertain and would really like some 'sound' opinions. Keep in mind the main use is for music. Thanks!

You might find some useful background information in Widescreen Reviews isuue on Subs. I also agree that for the price you're planning on paying used/demo is the way to go. you might want to look at Mirage or Energy models.
My experience with subs below 500.00 is that they are not to subby.If you choose to continue try (2)energy es 8's. Used they should be fetching 175.00 to 200.00. Good luck.
I think you'd be happy with a used Mirage FRxS12 or FRx S10.Both active subs which would work well with your recevier. You might want to look for Widescreen Reviews issue covering subs; lots of good info and reviews. good luck and happy holidays.
