1. Budget: $800-$1000 can maybe go a little over if necessary
2. Size requirements/limits: 36"x60"x72".
3. Room dimensions: 12' x 18' x 8' (1700 ft^3). I may be moving into a 20' x 20' x 8' (3200 ft^3)room later and I want to be flexible
4. Primary uses: 80% movies tv, 20% music.
5. Listening habits: Usually listen about -15 db from reference. I need a sub that can hit deep at lower volumes.
6. Appearance requirements: Not really too concerned about that
7. Timeframe: I currently have a sub that is adequate so not any big rush.
I have been reading all of the shootouts and comparisons I can find and I still just want to get some input before I pull the trigger.
Hree is a list of the subs on my short list:
Epik Empire (leaning hard this way)
HSU VTF-3 MK4 (350 watt amp seems inadequate?)
Velodyne Eq-Max 15
I had a Velodyne VA10-12 way back in 92 and it was mean little sub. The Epik seems to have a pretty good rep around here. Anyone have any input?
