AudioSoul,
I wanted to try stereo subs with the BS-41's, and since the SW-8's were also an Andrew Jones design and I was able to get them from newegg.com for (IIRC) around $150 for the pair I decided to go for it. What the heck, if I didn't like them I didn't have a whole lot of money to lose anyway.
Switch to over a year later - they were sitting around in my garage packed up in their boxes when the weather outside was bad and I was bored so I decided too hook them up to the M-Lore system and was pleasantly surprised at the results. They were inexpensive and don't do anything wrong when used the way I run them, in fact they actually compliment the M-Lore's after I spent half a day tweaking their placement, phase adjustment, frequency controls, and volume knobs. The M-Lore's don't really NEED the subs, but they certainly serve to successfully augment the bottom end when I feel like turning up the volume for some kick-ass music.
But don't let my comments sway you! The SW-8's are not AUDIOPHILE APPROVED and certainly don't cost enough money to garner any respect from the knee-jerk crowd who probably never even took the time or had the opportunity to check them out. ;-)
There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that there are far better subs out there, especially if you don't mind spending five or ten (or more) times the price, but as I read your OP it occurred to me that you were specifically inquiring about these Pioneers. Oh well.
Cheers,
Al
