Hello everyone. This may be my first post but i must say i have been reading avsforum for a while now. The info and knowledge here is staggering and has helped me make a couple choices in the past.
I currently have a Polk PSW12. Up until i did some research here recently i thought it was a "good" sub. It seems i may have been a tad off. It has served me well over the past couple years or so but i am looking to get a little more into the "real" subwoofer scene.
Basically my budget is $500 or so (maybe $550 tops). I have looked tirelessly at HSU, eD, SVS, Outlaw...etc. etc. It seems that there is a nice sub in the $500 - $550 but when the shipping gets added in it just crushes my choice. Typically its $100 or more to ship one of these monsters. This i understand but on most of what i have picked out it becomes a deal breaker.
ED offers free shipping which has kind of steered me to them. The A3-300 with the improved driver caught my eye. Its $500 on the nose.
I am more a movie guy i guess you could say when i am using the system. Although i do like to crank the toons from time to time. im guessin its a 70% movies/tv 30% music ratio.
My current setup is a Yamaha-661, Polk Monitor 50 mains, Polk Monitor 30 rear and side surrounds, Polk CS1 center and a polk PSW12 sub. In a nutshell will the A3-300 blend well and is it a sound choice for my situation.
My viewing area is 20 feet long and 12 feet wide with 8 foot 5 inch ceilings. Its an an old house and the ceilings are higher for some odd reason. Sub size is not an issue and i have different areas of the room i can use for placement. I am basically held back by only my financial prowess as most of us are sadly.
I will also be investing in a gramma from sweetwater for the new toy to nestle upon. I am definitely open to both suggestions and opinions. Thank you in advance. Ill be watching.
