For 50% HT and 50% music Would you rather have 2 of these ED subs:

Or 1 of these subs?
JL Audio Fathom f113 Subwoofers - Home Audio Powered Subwoofers

Wow 4 of those would be awesome Im guessing...

Gotta Say, that I was not wholeheartedly impressed with the eD drivers SQ.

Never heard the Quad Drive yet.....

Accuracy of the Fathoms is amongst the best I've heard but they certainly aren't going to fill the room or hit the low notes like the other suggestions.

What is the size of the room and what are your goals here...? HT or just music or what.....

Too many people like to just throw out suggestions without getting more info.

More info please

+1 on this. That would be a killer subwoofer setup. One of my first choices for $4k.

Yeah, any info on room size would help a lot. How loud do you listen? What do you have for mains? How important are the aesthetics?

Might want to talk with FunkyWaves, Nathan has some new stuff coming down the pipe....

At the prices under consideration, I would probably go with 2 of these:

SVSound - Cylinder Subwoofers

+1 on this. That would be a killer subwoofer setup. One of my first choices for $4k.

The fact that it has four subs, each with a long throw XBL^2 motor and triple shorting rings, makes it a great deal at 4k. i can imagine it digging pretty deep in many rooms, too.

Dont forget Seaton SubMersive and JTR Cativators.

I looked into these also, the SubM is over $4000 for two, so that put them out of my price range. Two JTR Cap 1000s can be had for roughly $3000 shipped. Jeff makes a passive one a tad cheaper with a 30mm driver and can be powered by a pro amp.

Two A7 450s would be a ton of output.

I really want to hear that little one. That looks amazing. One of these days I hope to do that kind of stuff on the side.
