  -Adire Rava, about $430 delivered within the US, 12" driver, 250 watt amp. They also sell a ported version that might work better for HT

  -PartsExpress' Dayton line. You have to do a little assembly, but supposedly the sound quality is excellent for the $$$. 10, 12, & 15" sizes

  -Hsu VTF-2 or 3. Very highly regarded for thei versatility between music & HT, affordable, lots of output for size

  -SVS -- if you don't mind the "water heater" style of subs, this cylinder might be right for you. The entry-level powered model runs about $550 US I believe.

  Paradigm and Definitive Technology, both Canadian firms, make decent models in this price range as well.

  Good luck and happy hunting!

      The 12" almost certainly goes both louder & deeper, with a bit more overhang and slowness, while the 15" sounds like a monster.

      Must I do ALL the work for you? ;-)

        i ve moved into new apt (listening room size:35x25x10) and i am trying to cure a thinness in my system that wasnt there before. i am also wanting to incorporate my 2 channel into ht. never had considered a sub before. i also dont want to annoy the above people too much. i want low freq, and less concerned with loudness. i do not need nor desire to rattle the windows, much. so bass quality is of most importance. i am also looking to increase my mains power source. 85wpc just doesnt seem enough. maybe with 200wpc, i might be able to get away without a sub altogether but maybe not, esp with movies. i thought i had spent my audio budget and was looking to save for a nice tv. but wont until satisfied first with sound. i'm doing all the reading i can, but i have some variables i have to try and eliminate....thanks again!
