Axiom EP 500 after shipping and taxes = 1475 USD
Axiom EO 350 after shipping and taxes = 908 USD

Which one would you guys recommend as most value for money? I am looking for a sub that does well in both music and HT.


I don't know how many people have been able to audition all of those, but based on specs alone the best deal for you seems to be the SVS PB12 NSD. If size is an issue and you want to keep it as small as possible, then the SVS SB12+ would fit the bill.

If you can stretch your budget to even cosider the PB12+ or EP500, then I'd personally go with Axiom's EP500 instead because it has similar specs to the PB12+ but has the added feature of being DSP controlled AND is still cheaper by $140. That would be my choice personally; I like to get the best/most I can in a sub since I don't tend to upgrade subs frequently.
