So I ordered a Dayton sub the other night


It should be here by Monday! I ordered the 100w 10" finished sub, here's the link:

I've read on here that it's probably the best for such a low amount of money, and since I'm a college kid, I went for it. I plan on upgrading it in a few years anyway, so hopefully it'll please my ears until then!

That was my first real subwoofer and loved it. I am certain that you will not be disappointed.



If it wasn\'t enough, they wouldn\'t call it the minimum.

Doesn't matter whether you're in college or not, it's a very nice sub and is my sole recommendation under $400.

Wow, under $400??? Even though it's only $125? I can't wait to get it, UPS says Monday but I'm getting worried. It arrived in Illinois yesterday and departed from there at about 1:45 pm, it's about 3:10 pm today and there's no update.

Lee, please let me know how you like it when you receive it, I'm curious too.

I bought a JBL e150 ($170 new, shipped from eBay but LOL retails for $300 at Best Buy) about six months ago and have never stopped regretting it.

My Dayton (with BFD) is awesome in my setup.
I really couldn't imagine anything more in my apt. setting right now. Already shakes the house no problem.

Tight and fast for music, but wall/floor rattling for those LOW bass scenes in movies.

MikeyWeitz, I've been seeing that "BFD" on the forum, but I don't know what it stands for, care to clue me in?

BEHRINGER FEEDBACK DESTROYER

People use it to EQ their Sub (even though that was not it's primary purpose).

I recently got a JBL E250p and am happy with it. I was expecting a little more but for the price I paid I really can't complain... Haven't figured out the SPL yet and I need to buy the Avia disk. Also considering a used BFD but they're so darn ugly

Oh man, I know about that thing! But I'm a musician, so I've seen it in mags, online, etc. I didn't know you guys were using it for your subs, may I ask why?
