Velodyne Vs. Hsu


I'm trying to slowly update my system. Currently I've B&W N805s as my main; which will eventually become rears as I aspire to be able to get some N802s as main speakers.
My system will be working as both two channel music as well as a HT sytem. I mostly listen to Rollings Stones/U2/Billy Idol (95.5-classic Rock in L.A) type music. I'm a fan of deep/tight bass (as opposed to getto blaster bass). I'm looking into quality used sub classifieds.
Thanks in advance for your input guys.

I own a velodyne SPL 1200--very nice clean sound. I also have a friend with an HSU--also very nice but not quite as clean. The velodyne is also small. Retail price $1399 but you can find on the internet $850 range. You received good advice above reference HGS10 subs--I haven't personally heard them but have read alot of negatives.

I have B&W N804 and am very happy with the combination. Also have the N HTM1 for THX--I had a friend who tried to sell me a B&W ASW-3000 and the velodyne is much much better. We listen to the same music and velodyne has a nice sound along with the B&W's --- but as always trust your own hearing.
