HSU STF-1 vs. Elemental A2-250 vs. AV123 X-Sub

[CHARL1E_PR1NCE]

Room size 8x11x11

Which sub would be best suited for this room size?

Speakers would be AV123 XLS and XCS or Elemental design A6 - 5T5 - MTM Pair and A6 - 6T6 - MTM Single.

Something in stock would be nice.


It took me a while to narrow it down to 3 brands, so I'd like to keep it between those... can't have more brands confusing me more... so many good subs, so little money.

IMO I do not recommend the AV123 X-sub. To me it is a waste of time. I know nothing of the Elemental subwoofer, just that the A7 - 900 Subwoofer is the size of a refrigerator. And that HSU subs are highly recommended and talked about. But I think the STF-2 gets more attention and talk. The only HSU sub I have experience with is a "HO".

Hi,

I have the HSU STF-1 subwoofer in a room 20ft long 15ft wide and 8ft ceilings and it puts out a good amount of tight bass. However, in a room the size of mine, this sub is really too small. I am going to upgrade soon to a bigger subwoofer in the HSU line. I bought the sub when living in a 400sqft apt before moving into my house. The sub has very good build quality at 35lbs, it weights more than some 12" subs.

The STF sub IMO is the best subwoofer under 300 dollars. Tight, musical, solid bass, and its only 8" woofer. I have not heard the other woofers you are considering. if you are around mid-michigan, I could consider selling.
