Subwoofer Selection HELP ? ? ?

I am re-building my system for a media room. I have all Magnepan speakers (3.6, and all MMG-W's for center, surrounds), with Bel Canto Ref1000 and Parasound A52 run by a Cary Audio Cinema 11. I really am struggling with what sub to get? I have not yet, but plan to buy a turntable and I have a Denon 5910 (being modded), so I love to listen to 2 channel music, but the room has a new projector and will definitely be used daily for movies/video.

All that said, I want one big sub. I have narrowed my choices to;

Definitive Techology Trinity

JL Audio Fathom 113

Revel b15a

Velodyne DD-18

Suggestions????

I'll second the SVS rec. I've had a PC13 Ultra (cylinder version) for a couple months and it is a beast for movies and quite musical as well for half the price of the Fathom.

It is "fast" enough to keep up with my Martin Logans effortlessly.

I consider it steal at $1500 (shipping included).

You won't be disappointed with the PC Ultra.

If your Denon "remembers" bass mgmt settings for different inputs you're all set. Haasle free for movies and music.
