atree Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Looking to add a subwoofer to my ancient Heresies. Unfortunately my budget is limited to $450+/- because I need a new a/v receiver. Have thought about Klipsch RW10 or 12, JBL S120PII, Infinity PS12 or something equivalent. For now my usage is 80/20 music (jazz, classical, Dead) to movies. Its quite a ways to an audio store (80 or 120 miles!) and I cannot stand Best Buy, Circuit City, etc. so I may not be able to listen to many. Thoughts?

InnovaZero Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Klipsch Reference Series subwoofers is awesome for music. I'd get the RW-12 or the HSU VTF series of subs (You can get the VTF2, although it might be possible to get the VTF3 around that price, I dunno...it might be a bit more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerbache Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Hsu is selling their VTF-2 right now for $450 with free shipping. Mine should be rolling off the Fed-Ex truck sometime this afternoon actually.. Looks like a great deal; I'd be able to tell ya later in this weekend how it'll blend with my ancient Heresies.

atree Posted February 15, 2004 Author Share Posted February 15, 2004 When did you order them? Hsu site shows them out of stock til late March? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leprechaun Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 I demo'd both the HSU Research VTF-2 and VTF-3. I recommend both - they are excellent. I went with the VTF-3 since it was constructed better and had a bit more range, but the VTF-2 is no lightweight! You can get the VTF-2 new from several places - one I just found tonight - Home Theater Plus - for under $400. Here is the whole link: http://search.store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/nsearch?query=hsu&catalog=hometheaterplus&.autodone=http%3A%2F%2Fstore.yahoo.com%2Fhometheaterplus%2Fnsearch.html E-Bay is a good place to look for the VTF-3 too. Good Luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranked Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 There is member selling a used sw-15. I have a version of this sub, and although it does not dig as deep as some built nowadays it is an incredible sub. Specs on website. I do not know of any experience others have had, but I assure you it will knock your socks off. I have sent amessage expressing interest but cant do it now so if he can sell to another forum user it's best for the both of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerbache Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Oh wow, looks like I picked the right time to place that order. I ordered mine about a week and a half ago, and they were in stock and everything. Must have gotten one of the last of that shipment.
