I am partial to the ACI Titan2 although even building it yourself will cost more than $500.00. I have seen lots of used Titan 1's for sale @ 400-500 though. The REL's also sound good as do the Velo's. I doubt that you can find a used Velo for $500.00. Check out ACI's website at www.audioc.com. They have a used area that you may be able to find a Titan on. Good luck, Kwillyp
Subwoofer opinion badly needed!
Hi. I'm looking for a sub to be used primarily for MUSIC (say, 98% of the time), that costs under $500, and will be used in a small/mid-sized room (approx. 18x12') with the following: Harmon Kardon AVR20II receiver Infinity RS225 (reference series speakers) I've had the following recommended but am still uncertain and would really like some 'sound' opinions. Keep in mind the main use is for music. Thanks!
