small sub request
Hi,
I have paradigm fronts and center. I want to add a subwoofer, but in a 13.5 tall area. Is there any good subs that are not higher then 13.5"? My price range is around $500.

Other needs aside, I'm not sure how many subs there are shorter than 13.5". Even my old Onkyo HITB sub was a few inches taller than that. Offhand, the only one I can think of is the Velodyne MiniVee, but I think that'll run you at least $700-800.
If you have enough width and depth, you could always lay a small sub on its side. There are plenty of smaller subs less than 13" wide.
I listen to music in 2.1 and movies in 5.1 I have paradigm studio 20 v3 mains and the cc 570 as a center. I want a sub that will fit in a small location (13.5" x 17" as wide as it needs to be. to cover a small room around 10' x 15'. I'm after good bass for music and great rumble and explosions for movies. I can up my budget a little. I mean, what do you think I want to use my sub for, cooking?

well its going to be hard to fit a sub thats great for rumble and explosions in movies under 13.5". at that height you are looking at a sealed musical sub. the onix ulw-10 comes in at 13" so check that out.
The SVS SB12-Plus is 14"x14"x15" (hxwxd), but price is a little over budget at $699 - $799 depending on finish, plus shipping. It did very well given it's size and its sealed alignment in Ilkka's recent sub shootout over at hometheatershack. The preliminary results show 90db @ 20hz at 2m ground plane, it should easily be capable of 100db or more with in room boundary reinforcement.

The Av123 UFW-10 is only 13" high, but it is again on the high side of budget at $599. You might want to check with then on B-stock.

I've found some reviews, but where can I hear one? It looks like a good fit.

The Dayton Titanic 10" sub kit at Parts Express:
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=300-760
is well reviewed, easy to assemble, and (depending on where you live) under $400 to your door.
Very good down to 25-30Hz.

It would be perfect, if it was 1/2" shorter.

I am thinking about a subwoofer at magnolia. It will fit and it is around $500. I forgot the model number. Anyone have any experience with the subs at magnolia. Are they ok? Or over priced? I just need a good small sub. I would like it asap, meaning something I can pick up in Concord, ca in the next few days. I think it is a definitive brand. Are they any good?
Which of these three subs is the best for me?
I would like to buy locally (Concord , Ca ) but I will order online for the right sub.
Locally I can get a:
Martin Logan Dynamo 10"
Definitive Prosub 800
and someone here recomended a Rocket ulw-10 sub and provided a link.
Anyone have any suggestion or input?
