Onix Rocket UFW-12?

Does anyone here own this sub? I'm looking for a good sub to augment the bass in my 60-70% music/30-40% HT setup. My room is 21' D x 16' W with 12' ceilings and my current mains are KEF Reference Two's. I plan on upgrading the mains to most likely Legacy Signature III's soon. Is the Rocket sub easy to setup? How helpful and easy to use is the R-DES EQ unit? The UFW-12 looks like a heck of a deal @ $1099 including the R-DES. The great looking build and rosewood finish will help with the WAF as well. Other subs I'm considering in the $1kish range are:
-HSU VTF-3HO (or MKII)
-Vandersteen 2WQ (or 2W)
-REL (various depending on a which good used deal I can find)

Thanks for any input.

Can't speak for the 12, but I have the UFW-10. After hearing it in my system, two of my buddies bought 'em too. It is a very musical sub and the single band parametric EQ lets you dial it in perfectly. The 12 with the R-DES should be even better. I am using the 10 in a 16 x 26 room with Reimer McCullough GSes and it is excellent as a music only sub. The UFW-12 will probably give you that extra slam you would need for movies.
