The Mirage Omni S8 is a very nice 8" sub, from the same parent company as Energy. I found it easier to integrate than the very well regarded HSU I had before. New price is around $350 but I bought one on ebay for $55 with 'cosmetic damage.' Turns out the damage was just tape residue that came off with some WD-40. It has both line and high-level inputs, phase switch, down-firing port. I'm very happy with it.
Budget subwoofer that matches Monitor Audio RS1?
Hi Dear Audiogoners,
I just both a pair of Monitor Audio RS1 and a Virtue Audio 2 integrated amp (really nice combo, BTW). Now, I'd like to add a sub to my system. I am looking for a used small (8-inch), budget sub (300-400) that matches the RS1.
My room is 13x15x11 feet. I've seen the Energy ESW-V8 for ~$300 (8" and goes down to 26Hz) Has anybody listened to this sub? is it good? Would it match my RS1 well?
Any other suggestions? I actually clueless about subs, since I've never owned one. So, any suggestion will be welcomed!!!
Thanks in advance!!
Luciano
