Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Sub for M22s, redux

Many thanks to everyone who replied so quickly to my previous post! Sadly, the Adire Rava failed the Interior Decorating Test: It's simply too big to fit in its designated place, behind our corner AV stand. (All of my creative ideas for alternative placement were firmly nixed.) So...what's inexpensive, musical, and smaller? How about the EP125? It's the right size, at least. Does it ever appear in the factory outlet? Any other suggestions?

i have the EP 125 with M22's and a VP150 in the front. it's small and amazing for music. Not as good for home theatre, though, but definitely amazing for music.

A technical follow-up question: Is the EP125 magnetically shielded? If not, how far away from the back of a tube TV must it be placed?

If you want a sub that will fit anywhere check out the little Sunfire sub. It's a 9" square 1500 watts and will blow away subs 5 times its size. It's reportedly ruler-flat to 22Hz and I'd have to agree. It's an incredible sub that will blow your mind when you hear it. It's about $1000 but I couldn't afford it so I bought my Velodyne, bummer. Go check this thing out!

I also own a pair of M22's and my room is a small room(15 x 13 x 10). I bought a Dayton Titanic MKII Vance Dickason Subwoofer. It comes in kit form but It took me only 45 minutes to ensemble it. It uses the Titanic 10" MKII Driver that has superb specifications. It sounds very, very tight and it is perfect for music. It also does a good job with Movies...

yes, it is magnetically shielded to my knowledge

call Joe at the toll free number if you need some very specific info on its mangetic shield.

Kyle will be able to custom make you a sub for a very competitive price.

just ordered the vmps larger sub kit for my michaura m55s(close to the m22s) setting it up for stereo( 2 sets of crossovers)running it passive till i can afford good amps
if you want oomph thats clean and hard this is the sub-
i think tubes are ugly -so no svs
not thrilled with internal amps-bye hsu,adire ,ect
not much left so i went vmps
and i can upgrade to amps and matched crossovers later

For around a thousand bucks, the EP350 was my choice. I would take a second look at that "1500 watt" rating.

My mistake, it isn't 1500 watts, it's 1200 watts. I listened to it at a local dealer along with many other subs for a good while. That tiny little thing blew away their Polk PSW450, their comparable Monitor subs, and a 12" Velodyne servo sub, and this was in a relatively large room (~20'x20'x15'. It's small size helps make it incredibly musical which it is in my opinion. While it won't go as loud as an EP350 it is probably one heck of a match for it in every other aspect(empasis on the "probably" as I haven't heard the EP350, yet). Combining the wife or decorating factor along with sound, nothing comes close.
