Two subs for $450. What do you guys think? Best Buy has them for $300 MSRP each + tax.

Actually, it's US$190 + shipping. In my case, shipping ( to CA ) is $35.

Depending on how big your room is and where you are you could get a HSU STF-2 from Comp USA (so I've heard) for $349. A much, much better sub. Do a search in the forums here, you'll see other people will agree.
