I really have to stop reading and looking at the Axiom products...anyway.
I have been thinking on doing some upgrades to my HT system mainly the front mains and adding a second subwoofer. I am currently running a 7.1 system and would like to get a better sound stage and more even bass. Hence the new mains and sub.
My current sub is an Infinity IL100, 10" CMMD driver with a 250w amp. I have read it will go as low as 26Hz but have not seen a graph and it will do 30Hz-100Hz flat +/-1.5dB
My room is just over 2200 cubic feet and I was wondering what the better sub would be to integreat into my set up would be, the EP350 or EP500. I think I know the answer but would like some feedback.
Thanks Phil

Get 2 EP350's. One EP500 will overpower your Infinity so much that you'll stop using it and then you'll be back to needing a second sub to even out your bass, so we're back to two EP350's. There may be some discussion going on right now about this. Try this 2 to 1

If you want to use two subs, you are better off buying two of the exact same subs. EP350's are a great choice, or something from SVS/HSU/Elemental Designs, etc. Axiom and SVS are easiest to get in Canada, though.

Adrian, have you seen or heard Paradigms Sub 25? I just read a review about it and the reviewer claimed it is the king of the hill. Although it would take me a little while, I've seriously thought about saving up for it.

I've only seen it online, but it sounds like a real beast. It's in the Signature line so it's going to be $$, about $4G list by the looks of it.

Well, I don't know if it would massage your feet, but most certainly it could part your hair for you.
