Remember Dana, with music, you arn't trying to simulate big dinosaurs walking in your living room like in movies.

If you don't go for the EP175, then I would go for the EP400, if you budget allows for it. I think the DSP chip and is worth the extra money and that 8" driver would be just perfect for music.

The cool thing, what ever you choose, you really can't go wrong with Axiom's subs.
