L, with a higher budget you could consider something like the Hsu that was mentioned, but at the price you set this might be okay( review ). You'll note their rather urgent insistance that life is impossible without a "Monster Subwoofer Cable" . I'd suspect that they're selling the sub at cost and need to find suckers to buy the Monster Cable with its generous profit margin.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I have the Velodyne CHT 12 for my home theatre system and just bought the CHT 8 for $149 online and after the initial break-in period it sounds pretty good. It's not the CHT 12 (or a Hsu), but it's a decent subwoofer from a high quality subwoofer manufacturer that is in your budget - even after shipping and handling - so if you don't want to save for something better it would be a good option.

At the risk of opening a can of worms - what cable should one use to hook up a subwoofer?

The appropriate length of a coaxial cable with an RCA plug on either end.
