I bought the ep350 for 2 reasons.
1. It matched everything else in my room. I just couldn't get a black sub.
2. I've never seen any posts stating the ep350 was a bad sub. Most people say it is a good sub. It just seems most feel that the SVS or HSU gives you a better performance/price ratio.
I'm sure there are many who prefer the sound of the HSU or SVS and that price never was an issue. I've been happy with the ep350 even though I haven't heard what the other subs sound like. The ep500/600 weren't out yet when I bought my set and I'll most likely upgrade to one of those before the year is out.
