Sub? Can't Decide

Looking for a sub for a small room,approx.10x10.No vaulted ceiling or anything.I'm looking at a 8" for the small footprint,to keep the wife happy.Really aren't a good way to run a full 5.1 setup in this room,so I am using a Mythos SSA-42 soundbar instead. It will be used for 99% movies.I don't need to wake my neighbors.I know that a 8" won't rattle the walls,but to keep the wife happy,I'll compromise.I am looking at the following...

Outlaw Audio M8
Mirage Omni S8
HSU STF-1

Setup: Denon 1909 AVR
Mythos SSA-42
Sony BluRay

You can get an eight inch psb for under $300, delivered to your door. Super musical subs, I'd go so far as to say amazing for the money.

...couldn't find any at $239
Sorry 'bout that. Things change quickly on eBay. However there's a BIN listing at $275 here. Not sure if this vendor has multiples at the BIN price. Prices went up a bit since I looked last week. Still a killer sub at $349-375.

Also available for $333.15 at Amazon w/Amazon Prime, which is free 2-day shipping if you subscribe. I get so much stuff from Amazon that the Prime subscription is easily worth it.

No problem. I have found it for 249.99 shipped with a 45 day return policy from another online store. My wife really likes the small footprint.

Just bear in mind that this sub can only take line level RCA inputs. It can either function as a mono or stereo sub.

This sub has very nice controls for integrating the sub(s) with your main speakers:

1: Crossover point continuously adjustable from 50-200 Hz, or with no low pass filter active at all.
2. Continuously adjustable phase from 0 to 360 degrees.
3. Continuously adjustable volume.

When you combine those three controls, you can match the subwoofer to your speaker's low end rolloff (crossover), position (phase), and sensitivity (volume).

The best part about their wife-friendly size--they are *really* good-sounding subwoofers. You'll both be pleased.
