Another best (x) for ($xxx) ? (1 Viewer)

[Jason Kass]

Hi,
I would like to know what would be the best sub for under $400. I have a Klipsch R3 system and do not have a sub yet, and have been reading that those that have the RSW would have gotten something else. So what would you get?
The room is 18x20 and 23ft vaulted ceilings.
Thanks,
Jason

Ooops, I meant Klipsch KSW sub... not RSW

$399 will get you an Adire Audio Rava. I've read great things about them.

If you call around you can get a Hsu VTF-2 for $400. That and the Rava are the best at that price point. Below that, I have heard that one or two of the JBL models are acceptable in the $200-$300 price range. And the Sony SA-WM40 is a great one $200 and under.

But are these better than the Klipsch KSW? And of those suggested which one stands out as the best?
Thanks,
Jason

Yes, both are better than the Klipsch.
