The Hsu Research (www.hsuresearch.com) VTF-2 was given a "Class A" rating in Stereophile's Guide To Home Theater magazine. Best of all, you could get TWO of them for about $1k. What other powered sub can offer such a value? It is definitely one (or a pair of them) to consider for your Aerial system.
Best home theater subwoofer to mate w/Aerial 7B's
I just purchased a pair of Aerial 7B's for my dedicated home theater room. Although the room is rather small (12x12), I would like to find a sub that will both pressurize the room and mate well with the 7B's. I've heard the REL Storm III and it sounded great and mated perfectly with the Aerial's. How well will this sub work on LFE in a HT set-up? Are there any other subwoofers that I should consider?
