Hey,
My Uncle (Who I talked out of Bose) is now going with a set of Boston Acoustics Mirco130 satellite speakers along with a Micro Center. He wants a nice sub to go with these speakers, he does not want to spend a ton and I believe his budget is around $400. As an STF-2 owner I obviously recommended that, and told him that he would be hard pressed to do better for the price. He has also heard the STF-2 at my house and was really impressed by it. Anyway he gave me a call a few days ago and asked about BA subs, I honestly know nothing about them so I figured I would ask here. This is the one he was looking at http://www.bostonacoustics.com/hs_pr...2&CategoryID=6 and from the specs (100 watt amp, only goes down to 38Hz, only weights 28 pounds) it seems pretty unimpressive, even the $700 PV900 “only” goes to 26Hz, and for that price you could do much better! So I am going to go ahead and assume that he would be much better off with the STF-2 for $400 (CompUSA no longer sells it for $350). Anyway he still wanted to get some input on BA subs so let me know what you think. Thanks.
