hey guys im looking into getting a new sub for my system, i currently use the crappy stock onkyo sub that came with my Onkyo HT-SR800 system. The reciever is a HT-R550.
I have two options im looking at, i can either get a Chrysalis by Velodyne Starfire 10' sub for $205 out the door brand new or i was looking at vanns deal on the Jamo300 sub for 180 shipped.
which would you suggest?
i have my HT system plugged into my computer via S/PDIF, and about 80% of usage on the HT system is music listening.
