BEST MUSICAL SUBWOOFER, UNDER 1K

I am not sure if you would consider something that is not 'pre-packaged' but I got a great sub for just under $600. It uses an NHT 12" woofer, 200 watt mono amp and a oak veneer MDF cabinet. The kits are available from www.madisound.com. You can get the cabinets, choice of drivers, foam, spikes, etc at the website. Overall it is a pretty good sub especially when compared to stuff in that price range. It is much better than the Paradigm sub for sound and looks.

quest for sound

I would listen to the Hsu Research VTF-2, $500 new. It beats any Velodyne, Energy. I think it even sounds better than all the Sunfire subs. The only way you can really tell is to go listen to it. As a guide go to their webb site. http://www.hsuresearch.com/ There they have links to reviews etc. Good luck. Let your ears guide you

Someone just asked this same question last week. Do a search

Buy a used Vandersteen 2Wq - or get it new for just a little over $1000 - either way, there are NONE more musical.
