I didn't mention anything about your speakers/sub/receiver because I agree with the above poster that they are fine. Axiom makes some good stuff.
As for the sub, there's stuff that's probably "as good" and cheaper but I wouldn't consider it "better." However, how much are you really gonna be able to turn this thing up in a dorm room or apartment? Whether you get this Klipsch - 12" 650W Powered Subwoofer - SUB-12
or this Elemental Designs
or the VTF2 MK3 it's going to shake the walls and make you the hated tenant for sure. You won't be able to utilize even 1/2 the performance until you get a house. As for those 3 choices I just listed, the Elemental Design is going to give you the best performance however it's the ugliest sub ever with the finish it has. The Klipsch is an excellent sub at that price, but is not as deep as the HSU or ED. It sounds good (I have one) but you can do better with $100 more.
