Decided to go with the SVS PB-1000. So far, I am quite impressed with this unit. More clarity and deeper frequency response! This thing has greatly improved my home theater! I am still doing some tweaking, but 30 and below is where this sub really shines. The 40-80 range is solid though.

What about the new VTF-1 MK3 or the VTF-2? Would those be good options as well? Just trying to stay around the $500 budget.

I'm working with the model prior to the Primus line. It's a decent little sub (8") for what it is, but I am well past time to upgrade. I upgraded everything else first.

That HSU VTF-3 is quite nice, but with shipping, that takes me well over the $500 price point of the SVS. Is the HSU THAT much better?

I've been thinking of going dual. May very likely add a second down the road.

Thanks for the info! HT setup is in a bonus room (22x18x8).

I have been researching subwoofers for several months and I am finally at the point of making a purchase. For the most part, I am pretty much sold on the SVS PB-1000. One thing I have been seeing quite a bit is that the PB-1000 is a little lacking in the mid-bass range. Is the PB-1000 truly...

Good to hear! I was curious as to how the R110-SW would perform in a medium to large size room.

Good info! Thanks for the insight. Looks like HSU comes well recommended around these parts.

I guess I should keep the HSU under consideration. Good to hear some positive first-hand experience.

From what I have been reading, that R115SW is a worthy contender. I like what I see on the HSU VTF2, I'm just leery of the BASH amp reliability.

What's wrong with the Klipsch? Output, accuracy, reliability? I have read some pretty good reviews for the larger R-115SW. Would the SVS provide that much greater output?

Interesting idea. Never really considered the DIY subs. I guess at any rate, I need to go with a larger sub (12 -15").

Currently looking to upgrade a HT subwoofer. The HT setup is in a bonus room (22x18x8). Based on budget, I have pretty much narrowed down my choices to the following: SVS PB-1000 HSU STF-2 Klipsch R-110SW Based on the room size, which would be the better option? I am leaning more towards the...

Currently looking at the CS2 II. I like the 6 1/2 drivers over the 5 1/4 drivers in the TSx150C. Based on what I have read, the larger drivers yield a bit better sound quality. The CS2 is also about $70-80 less expensive.

Thanks JRT3! Sounds like you have a pretty nice setup there!

Series match doesn't really matter much to me, as long as they are timbre matched. I will look into the CS2. Looks like there are some good deals to be had on it. They do appear to be identical now that you mentioned it. I know you are looking forward to the RTi8's. Was looking at those too...

Thanks, and yes they do look quite a bit better! :)

My speakers are black and my current Yamaha center is quite large, so I think I have the space. The CS2 looks like a great choice. Would it be better than the matching TSx150c or are they similarly voiced? http://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-TSx-150C-Channel/dp/B00CHHCAQQ

Well, finally pulled the trigger on the Polk TSx330T. Got a really good deal (that I could not pass up) on the floor model/open box. The speakers are in great condition, minus a crack to one of the feet, but that's about it. No cabinet issues that would effect sound quality. I would have liked...
