Any recommendations?

I have Dynaudio Foci, so I was thinking of getting the Sub 500.

I wanted to see what other subwoofers you guys would recommend in this price range.

 

If you shop around a bit you should be able to find a Focal Electra SW1000 for that, which is just about universally awesome.

 

Thanks. I am looking into that.

I have a few small recording studio guys telling me to get the Dynaudio Acoustics BM14S. Supposedly Dynaudio Acoustics are popular in small recording studios.

What are your thoughts on them?

REL B1, if not the B2/3 are also great.

 

I have a Martin Logan Abyss, which is well under your price cap (it's around $1,000), and I really couldn't be happier. I actually have two, one in our very small media room (11x14), and the other in the great room, which (including the dining room/foyer/kitchen that are open to it) is probably 30' x 30' x 22' ceiling. In each room, there's plenty of wallop, but it's fast and musical as well.

A pair of these in a stereo configuration is worth thinking about.

 

I have this one, along with the full Mythos line of speakers. This thing rocks! Oh and I've had it now for about 5 years, no issues.

I have a B&W PV1 and it's a great sub. You may be able to get 2 within your budget.

 

I wondered about that. Whenever I look at the B&W section of Audiogon, there's always a preponderance of subs for sales. Seems as though people buy them, and don't like them. It's about time they put something solid together.

 

Guys, I am more confused than ever now.

I sometimes think I should just be impulsive and buy the Dynaudio Sub 500 to match the rest of our Dynaudio stuff and call it a day.
