Here is my current setup:

Fronts: Sonus Faber Grand Piano Home
Center: Sonus Faber Solo
Rears: Sonus Faber Wall

Ampliflification : 5 Nuforce digital amplifiers
Processor : Classe SSP 60

My current Velodyne FSR 12 servo subwwoofer has served me well for several years but the amplifier is going. Want to replace this with a good sub that goes deep with clean output.

Budget:

I would like to keep it under $800 if possible. Due to the room size (+ 3000 cubic feet) I would start with one good sub and then later get a second.

Size requrements/limits:

None

Room dimensions:

20 X 20 X 8

Primary uses:

80% HT
20% Music

Listening habits:

We tend to watch movies at loud levels only with action movies with great sound effects. Bass should be solid though.

Appearance requirements:

None

Timeframe:

I would like to get something in the next few months. (Or sooner if Veloydyne dies :(

Here are some that I am looking at:

SVS PB 12-NSD
Elemental Designs A5-350
HSU VTF MK 3
Epik Valor- Is it still available

My question is what other subs that I should be looking at besides these.

Any help is appreciated.

Anyone have any thoughts or ideas???

You seem to be on the right track with those choices.

Epik doesn't have the Valor anymore. I believed only the Conquest remains from the old line-up. Check out Epik products here (http://www.epiksubwoofers.com/products.html).

If I'm not mistaken the A5-350 recently underwent a complete redesign. I have no test data to provide you, but I have a good feeling about the redesigned A5-350, especially with movies.

On the other hand you are used to a sealed sub with a Servo. You might be a good candidate for a pair of Rythmiks. Even the 12 inch models would likely keep up with your old Velo.

One Rythmik now, and a second one (if you really feel the need).

Thanks blued888 for the response. Are you familiar with any of these Epik subwoofers?

Thanks Spyboy. The Rhytmik suggestion is a good one. Several people here speak highly about this sub. What kind of differences might I find between these two?

Any other comments or suggestions for a subwoofer? Has anyone heard a Sonus Faber subwoofer? Seems like there would be some synergy with this sub.

Not really, because Epik is an internet-direct brand and I don't think many people have their new stuff.

I myself own an eD A2-300.

Haven't heard of Sonus Faber subwoofers.
