Your option of HSU subs are good BUT if you want the same performance and keep it under the $1000 mark then I would recommend going to the "Outlaw Audio" website and while they are still available, getting TWO LFM-1 Plus "B-Stock" subs. They are essentially built on the same platform of the HSU but with slight design and cosmetic differences.

If you are comfortable with diy builds, you may want to look that way. $1K can get you two good 15's.

If not, my vote goes to the EP500

I never heard the HSU or the SVS, but I love my single EP500 which supplies way more then enough quality bottem end for my 450 square foot dedicated HT room. It also has the DSP chip which I think is worth a few extra dollars.

I like the revised list, my PB13 Ultra has been great to listen to(along with the Axioms) and problem free \:\) I am quite certain it even has enough power to fill the OP's room with good LFE and then he could add a second sub of his choice down the road.


+1 on the Ultra! I'm one satisfied customer. Thinking about adding in the EP500 in the corner to even things out slightly more, but things have been sounding great enough to put it off. \:D It's a shame to have sit there unused... I just need a big block of time to play with calibration, etc.

Just in case you have second thoughts about the revised list:
Yet another 'satisfied' customer.

^lol, I was reading that a couple hours ago.

The best part is he knows the guy that runs AV123 will see it.

Wow, God am I glad I didn't purchase from that ass-hat! Hey things can go wrong with the best of products (I know that first hand), surely it's in the company's best interest to do whatever it can to satisfy their customers in a timely manner. Now that the internet is as big a part of buying audio equipment as it is today, behaving the way that company has/is can only bring about one thing... certain doom! You just can't get away with treating customers that way in this day and age. Public perception is everything. One dissatisfied customer can reak havoc on an internet company like this one, let alone two thirds of the customers that deal with them. It's mistifying to me that these guys actually think they can get away with this sort of customer service. The end must surely be near for these shmucks!

The service could not be more night and day different than it is over at Axiom. I would whole heartedly recommend to any and all of AV123's dejected customers to give an Axiom product a spin! After the treatment they recieved over there they'd be in for the shock of their lives when an Axiom customer service rep tells them, "your replacement amp/driver/subwoofer is on it's way, once it arrives you can return your defective piece with the pre-paid shipping label we're emailing you at this time, have a great day". No company is perfect from top to bottom, but Axiom's customer service is the absolute benchmark for which all others should model themselves after.

The pairing of Axiom's trmendous customer service and the incredible performance of their products will asure their survival in the audio industry for as long as they wish to do business. Of this I have no doubt.

Wow. I've always had respect for AV123, despite how some on their forums/side/whatever have presented themselves to us and regarding us and Axiom. That's really disappointing to read.

Wow, I haven't been to the sub thread in awhile. I would have liked to think they were isolated incidents but way too many people complaining.
