I am seeking a subwoofer for my current 5.0 system. I have the following configuration:
Yamaha RX-V1500 Receiver
JBL S312 Studio Series Front Speakers
JBL S Center Studio Series Center Speaker
Omega (DLK) 10" 3-way surround speakers (my old main speakers)
The home theater room is as about as bad as possible with hardwood floors, lots of glass and openings to other rooms. The room is 15' wide, 13' deep, and 8' high.
Here are the speakers I can get for around $300 or less including the JBL Studio series speaker at the highest cost in the list.
(Speakers listed in order of cost to me including shipping)
JBL E150P, 10", 150W, 27-150Hz, 5yr, 33.5#, $190
JBL E250P, 12", 250W, 25-150Hz, 5yr, 43#, $239
Cerwin-Vega CLSC-12S, 12", 350W, 28-150Hz, 5yr, 46#, $240
Cadence Xsub, 12", 350W, 25-250Hz, 2yr, 49#, $249
Velodyne FRP-1000, 10", 115W, 35-140Hz, 2yr, 35#, $249
BIC H100, 12", 150W, 24-200Hz, 2yr, 35#, $264
Klipsch KSW-10, 10", 225W, 22-125Hz, 5yr, 29#, $299
JBL S120P II, 12", 400W, 22-150Hz, 5yr, 56#, $322
There is a JBL PSW-D110 available locally for about $100. I know they like to blow a cap I could proactively replace.
I would love to have the matching JBL Studio sub but at 3X the cost of the used JBL or at nearly 2X the cost of the new E150, it is hard to justify buying it but I would like the experts opinion.
Thanks and happy new year!
