In Reply to: Good CHEAP sub advice please posted by Jonathan on September 24, 2001 at 12:24:16:
There's a Mirage BPS-150 for sale used right now at audiogon for $350. It uses 2 8" drivers in a somewhat large box. I've owned this model sub for quite a few years, and I can say it definitely does not screw up the sound of the main speakers. It will not shake the room for HT effects and it will not go flat to 20 Hz (20 Hz is about 6 db down from 25 Hz, which is as low as it goes).It will, however, play plenty loud enough in an average sized room to keep up with the typical pair of standmount speakers. In my system, I'm using to help the main speakers below about 45 Hz.
See inmate systems for the rest of my stuff.
I've thought about replacing it with a Rel Strata or Storm. Although I certainly admit that the Strata I heard sounds better (because it goes lower), it doesn't sound 3 times better, which is the factor by which I would need to increase my investment in subwoofer to buy the Strata.
