I like the idea of two Hsu VTF 3 MK3s in that size room. They're 10% off right now. Uh oh!!!!!!!!!!  Hello Noreen??? Did the truck leave yet? I doubt 1 EP500 could match the output of two of the Hsu subs. They would also give the advantage of multiple subs taming room responses. They also did better on Craigsubs list than did the 500.

I am hoping to find the right place for one sub. Can't fit 2 subs in here and I like that everything is front loaded on the 500 The Hsu wouldn't work for me. ( I thought the VTF3 MK3 was very close to the EP500 on Craigsub's list) I've read quite a few great reviews on the 500 although most of them were a few years old. Seems like it was a pretty top contender before everyone stated passing them by. The "mammoth" 600 and 800 is not for everyone. Even 1 Hsu is a big box. Two of them probably put it out pretty good. I guess I'll just have to settle.

Well it certainly should be close seeing the the EP500 is $500 more than the Hsu, shipping included. I hope you enjoy the 500 but there are subs of equal performance to be had, for less

I know that there are subs thought more highly of then the 500 for the money. Getting it at 10% off from the Outlet Store and the extra 5% discount really helped bring the cost more into line. Plus if it ends up being placed in sight in the room it will match the other speakers. It is what it is.
$1051.65 shipped is what I paid for the EP500.

Your right Bob, with the discounts and a matched look, the EP500 isn't too far off the mark.
