Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners I got a new job, so which sub do I buy????

He's better than Chris Chandler. Hell, I'm better than Chris Chandler!!! I never thought I'd miss Warner and Marc Bulger!!

Yeah and kurt probably never thought he would miss the rams lol

where does Velodyne fit in comparison to HSU & SVS? i think would lean toward a sub that was moe accurate than loud at this point any thoughts which would be considered the more accurate? Thanks

Is there any significance to the fact that the subs recommended here (SVS, HSU and sometimes Outlaw) are all downfiring subs?

Yes, I will beat this to death before I make my decision!!

nope

Sonically it doesn't matter. Depending on your circumstances a downfiring sub may be easier to place in a corner. I choose the Outlaw based on price/performance and dimensions because of limited placement options in my room. I liked not having to worry about the 11 year old having another driver to kick a ball into, or the teanager messing around showing off to his friends.

And after yesterday, I know I'm not going to miss him NEXT year! ( Still cannot believe the Giants signed that Mope!
Anyway, I'm on the Sub Hunt as well, and was wondering why all of the talk here about Subs centers on the HSU and V-something, and not the Subs from Axiom? I'm leaning towards the EP 500 right now, but that was simply due to reading the reviews online, and a growing desire not to have to drag my ass all over the internet looking at other brands and doing the endless comparisons. Are these other subs that you are talking about quite a bit better for the money, or just as good for a lot less money? I must admit that I am less and less fond of trying to sort through all of the damn choices out there! Choices are wonderful, but when there are as many as there are now with the Web, they can also be Paralyzing! Heck, it took me weeks to narrow my choices for the mains down to the M60's and I am certainly not interested in sorting through the World Wide Web all over again for a sub!
Interestedin your responses...
Another Giants Fan!

yeah Eli looked pretty good yesterday i was at the game and it was fun to watch (for once). I have narrowed my search for a sub down to axiom ep350 or outlaw lfm1 (both =$)i like the the fact that the axiom will match color wise. but do you guys think that if i get the ep350 and dont hear the other one it will be one of those situations where i will think i made the best choice, or do you think i will know im lacking.

In the $600 price range, it is generally agreed that the SVS and HSU (and the Outlaw LFM-1) give you a bigger bang for buck over the Axiom EP-350. The EP500 and EP600 are in another price bracket (and out of my budget).

The Axioms will give you matching speakers and I am sure most people will be happy with their performance.

Since I won't demo all the subs, it'll be either the SVS PB12-ISD or the HSU STF-3. I honestly don't think I can go wrong. If you put a gun to my head now, it's the SVS by a nose.

I was just reading some threads on another forum, and the attitude of the SVS people (and I mean employees/owners, not just fan-boys) REALLY turned me off. Talking trash on forums about your competetion is just un-cool. Much like Axiom, and Hsu...let your products to the talking.

Uncool
