After a lot of research on inexpensive subwoofers (Acculine A-Sub, BIC F-12, Cadence CSX-12, eD A-250, PA-120, Velodyne VX-10, TSC 250, etc, etc), I decided on the BIC H-100. It's been around a while, I know, but it seems to consistently get a lot of love from owners, former owners and reviewers. I bought it from Overstock ($280 shipped).
Up until now I have been using an 8" Sony sub that is the last remnant of a long gone Sony HT-7000DH HTIB. I had considered it adequate for my listening needs. In the spirit of full disclosure, I've always been a little skeptical of all the "wow" type comments from folks who seem to experience some kind of an epiphany immediately after getting a serious sub after living with an HTIB.
Well I'm no longer skeptical. I played a battle scene from Master and Commander (an recommended benchmark) and OMG :D:D. I now realize I've been missing a lot. Here are some pix, in particular the rear view, which I never seemed to be able to find when researching. Only had it for a couple of days but so far I'm a happy camper. :)
