Need Help Buying A Sub For Klipsch Quintet III Home Theater Speaker Set

[theaterguy]

Hi I bought the Klipsch Quintet III set which I was told are a horn style speaker set that bottom out at 120 Hz, so whatever Subwoofer I get, it will need to handle frequencies up to, or slightly beyond the 120Hz low end of the small Quintet speakers.

I have a Onkyo TX-SR707 pared up with them in a bedroom, with only 1 spot to put a Sub in, at a Max Width of about 12.8" & Depth of 18" and these are the Subs I've found that will fit.

Which do you suggest for my setup?

They are in Manufacture order high price first.

There are 2 I would recommend to you other then the ones you have listed the HSU VTF-1 and the SVS PC12-NSD these would be more bang for your buck. here are the links for these.

The HSU VTF-1 won't fit, I'm at max with the measurement I listed.

What do you know about the PC12-NSD & the cylinder shape, does it match up with traditional box style and how will it match with my setup?

Sorry about the HSU I though you might have some wiggle room. Now for the SVS cylinder sub it takes up less floor space and it has the same specs as their PB12-NSD which is a box sub as far as matching up with your setup it will. SVS is well respected in this forum along with HSU . I own the PC12-NSD but before I did I was looking at these 2 subs as well. Went with SVS because of the floor space issue. There are not many box-style subs that are on the same level as this sub,there are a few from companies such as HSU,Outlaw,Sunfire and Epik. If you need more answers ask me in the thread that you have posted under subwoofers.

Damn the PC12-NSD doesn't fit I was thinking just because it was a cylinder it was smaller but it's a 16" Cylinder. I can get away with depth and height but not width because I have a door that opens into the Sub. The PC12-NSD sound nice I wish it would of fit because I just read some great reviews.
