Okay audiophiles, I need some help here.

I'm looking to get a subwoofer to compliment my home stereo system. It ain't high-end, so I'm not after high-end speakers.

Right now, I have an old Sony STR-D615 receiver, two Infinity SM112s, and two Optimus floor speakers (I got a screamin' deal on these behemoths ... don't know model number).

I'm torn between going for a Pyle PDSUB8, an Acoustic Research S108PS, or a KLH-made sub.

I'm on a budget ... mostly just looking to improve sound quality in the home. IF I had the money, I'd get something from Velodyne or Klipsch (I already have a Klipsch 2.1 system for my computer ... and I love it!).

So, anybody got any ideas on this? C'mon, I know SOMEONE out there has to have an opinion on this!



Thanks!

i heard KHL is good

I've used AR and KLH subwoofers. They were both quite good. I understand that KLH is making a wider range of quality than they used to, so I'd stay away from the bottom end.

Thanks ... I suppose I should have posted a while ago, but I got the AR sub ... it ROCKS!! I have to keep it turned down, otherwise, the neighbors get annoyed!

The low frequencies carry well through walls and are also non-directional. Most of the ARs have adjustments on the woofer itself, which is better when gaming late at night.

You might look into something at cambridge soundworks too, their 8" downward firing subwoofer, i think its the basscube 8? is great for moderate listening levels and its only a bit over 100 dollars. Personally though, i would suggest saving your cash for a bit and buying a klipsch model :P i've yet to throw something at my ksw 15 that it couldnt handle
