I currently work for a business that I can get these straight from the vendors, so the cost would be lower. I think could also get the Definitive Technology ProSub 800 as well, but they're all in about the same price range. Wasn't looking to spend more than $400 MSRP, since I'm not looking to shake the walls (apartment) but rather would have something with a great, solid sound. I'm open to other brands, but I know I can get a good deal with these three. Thanks
