Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater EP500

This is my first post here. I am looking for a sub to complete (at least for now) my home theater. Initially I was looking to stay small and was thinking either the Velo SPL-1200 or the Paradigm Seismic 12. I have decided to go larger and reap the benefits of a larger sub, but since it is a living room, I can't go too big.
My room is just shy of 3000 cubic feet.
How does the EP500 compare to HSU and SVS subs. I would hope for the price, it would be better than the VTF-3, but what would you guess is the SVS that can be reasonably compared to the EP500?

Thanks in advance
Greg

Greg - I have an EP-500 due here tomorrow, and it will get a pretty thorough shakedown, including against a PB12-Ultra. Stay Tuned.

Craig! You bought another one?!

I told you. Axioms are like tribbles... the damn things just keep showing up.

Hmm... mine aren't breeding well. Maybe I need to put them closer together?

Are you leaving your credit card by the computer ? That seems to encourage them....

Hmm... My credit cards are all stuck firmly in my wallet. Maybe that's the problem. I'll have to dig out the pliers.

As usual, pretty funny stuff, guys. By Friday night, We should have a pair of EP-600's and and EP-500. Look for LOTS of stuff on subwoofers soon.

Man, I hope your house has a solid foundation. Of course, given all the shakin' you've been putting it through over the years...
