What non-Linn sub would work with all-Linn setup?

If you go to audioreview.com and then go to the "speakers"
link you can bring up reviews on all types of speakers. If you click "L" if will then bring up alphabetically all speakers starting with the letter "L." The Tukans are listed and you will find 35 reviews on them. Alot of those reviews are from people that have added a subwoofer to the Tukans. I've read all of the reviews (all were very good by the way).
A few people seem to think that REL makes a good subwoofer that works well with your speakers. I think they make one under a $1000 new, maybe less. I know PSB makes an economically priced one that may work ok. I'm thinking of buying a pair of Tukans used. I know that they recently replaced them with the Katan. I also want to build an all Linn system with them. Good luck.

Hi: About 6 weeks ago, I posted a thread here which summarized the ratings of the top dozen subwoofers that were reviewed by Widescreen Review magazine over a 3-year period (50 subs were rated). Look for the thread in the archives using the phrases "widescreen review" and "subwoofers".

In addition to the subs included in my original post, there are two other subs that could be added to those rated by Widescreen. The January issue of "Stereophile Guide to Home Theater" listed these two subs as part of the "2002 Editors' Choice Awards:
1. Revel B15 -- $3000 -- received the "Platinum Award" -- this sub includes 3 built-n parametric equalizers, plus a computer program used in conjunction with a sound pressure meter to adjust the bass contours to one's listening room.
2. Infinity Systems Interlude IL120s -- $960 -- "Gold Award" -- has a 1-band parametric equalizer and bass optimizer system.

I've got to close with my standard "advertisement": the Vandersteen 2Wq sub is a great sub for music. I own two of them and think they compete very well with subs selling for twice as much money.

Best regards,

Scott

I have a REL Strata III and it is a gigantic improvement over my old Sunfire Mk II. The nice thing about REL: The sub hooks up to the amplifier rather than the preamp. I think it really helps integrate the sub with the amp, and brings the system "together" nicely.
So I'd recommend the REL subs because they seem to work with everything...
