    SVS and Hsu. But eD is the best bang for the buck. With any of these internet direct companies, you are going to get great service. With Epik and eD, you can talk to the owner of the company or the sub designer (sometimes the same person). SVS are a little larger and more established. They...

    First, let's start with a budget. Then how much space are you willing to sacrifice for sub? From there we can see what realistic expectations are. I have usable output at 15hz from a pair of sealed 15's and an EP-2500 amp. I am boosting the low end with a parametric EQ to get that. I listen...

    First, there is very little content below 20hz so some will say that you are wasting your time. Second, you better have a different definition of 'reasonable' because it won't be cheap. If you want to buy retail, you should be looking at subs like the Epik Conquest. Tom Nousaine measured its...
