Which Subwoofer would you choose?


Hello everyone I’m seeking some advice on which subwoofer would be ideal. First off my tv room size is rather large, 20x20 connected to an open kitchen currently I have (2) Klipsch RP280F towers and an Onkyo TX-NR708 receiver, my budget is around $275.00 (Shipped) for a sub I found these 2 subs used locally both in good condition

Velodyne VRP-12 12" $120.00
Velodyne SPL-1500R 15" $275.00

I’m not sure if SPL or VRP is better? or if the prices of these are not worth it? Can I get something better for $275.00? any advice would help! thanks in advance.

I've had bad luck with used subs. Think I picked up 3 or 4 defectives off craigslist over time. The likelihood that a sub has been over driven and damaged is not insignificant. My policy now is new subs only.

Why are you surprised? Where might one find a JL sub for $275.00?

My opinion might not be relevant here but...…. I have a very high opinion of M&K.. I'm using a restored MX-70B and have never heard deeper or tighter bass. I've auditioned a lot of subs and none come close to it.

Too bad it is no longer the same company...
