BIC-100, SW-12, or Dayton Kit

[timintex]

I am about to buy my sub and I have narrowed it down to these choices.

Everyone has reccomended that I buy a HSU or SVS, but I cannot justify over 500 for a sub. I would love to but I just cant.

My budget is about 300 and for that money I was wondering which of these was better.

The BIC-100 (Popular Choice) 249.99 Free Shipping
Infinty SW-12 299.99 Free Shipping

I like the idea of the infinity because it used to be much more expensive and so I think it may be a little better than the BIC? I'm not sure.

Or one of the Dayton Kits from PE?

Thanks for helping me make my audio dreams come true guys. I've wanted a nice setup for the past two years. Just finances and bad things kept coming up raping my money from me! But now I have a much better job and can finally get it

How big is this room, and any opening (not doors, but large openings) to other areas of the house?

I wouldn't even consider the Infinity sub. JMO

I will get a tape and measure when I get home. The room is open to two other rooms but they are basically doorways with no door not whole open walls or anything.

You could also think about stacking 2 of these subwoofers.

I've setup two of the lower dayton subs for my friends. THe 10" inch version of that though. It's a little boomy for my taste. I'd like something a little fuller, deeper sounding!

I ordered the SW-12 and had to return it due to the defective vibration of the woofer working itself out of the cardboard like frame ,bought the HSU VTF_1 and smile ever since . The Hsu is one incredible sub ,it is solid , accurate and display the depth of music I didn't know was there before .I'm going to get rid of my Klipsch rsw12 and buy the bigger Hsu latter.
