i am looking for a budget sub, college student budget. the room its going into is pretty oddly shapped but i would say 12x15 is a good estimate of the space, imagine a townhouse living room. the subs i looked at are as follows

av123 xsub
dayton sub120
velodyne vx10
bic h-100-though i dont see where people find them for 200 cheapest i found them
which of these subs would be good for mostly movies not much music at all. i would also be up for other suggestions.

out of those I'd go for the H-100 1st, X-sub 2nd and vx10 third and remove the dayton from the list. I had it for a while and was disappointed and sent it back.

As for the price on the H-100 do an ebay search, there are 2 authorized dealers that constantly run auctions for the h-100 and they have a make an offer option which is were they get accepted around $200.

Dayton SUB 120,best bang for the buck.

More like boomy is the word. Not very linear. For sheer output go with the Bic with it's bigger driver. For accuracy the 123 or the newly improved Velo.
