The price is decent for a 12inch, but I haven't heard the sub, so I can't comment if it would be better then the H100 by BIC. Check the user reviews on www.audioreview.com and see what they say (however, take these with a grain of salt).

It will be the best 250 dollar sub you can get. The sub12 is a very musical sub, not necessarily the best sub for movies, but it's not bad.

Mirage BPS-100 - good sub?

I've found a used Mirage BPS-100 for $90... is this a good deal? I'm on a tight budget for my sub and would like to get the most for my money. I've looked at Dayton's and Velodyne VX-10s and then this deal just came up. It's an older sub, the guy claims only 6 years old, but I know it was fairly nice when it came out, does anyone have any more info on it? Would this be better than any new sub I can get in the 100-200 dollar range?

I've also found a Athena AS-P4000 for about $110-$120 the guy says its only 4-5months old. Would this be my best option? Better than the Mirage?

Also, if I do take a look at the mirage, what things should I look for in regards to seeing if its in good shape?


Thanks.

Here's a link to the original brochure on the speakers:

I would rather have the mirage. Side note, the BPS-100 retailed for around $500 new. I don't like Athena subs much, to much port noise.

Thanks Seth,

Anyone else have their 2 cents to throw in?


To add to the issue, I just found another used sub to throw into the mix... a BIC Cinema 1 C-10 for $100.

Anyone have any suggestions on which sub to choose?
