Velodynes with servo control are great, but watch out for the earliest version of the HGS-10. Mine is the early version and is working great after 6 months, but a lot of people at Audioreview had major failures. The HGS-12 didn't have as many problems. The bigger Hsu seems to be a great sub (check out the Audio Critic review), but it's tall and tips over easily. It's hard to hide. My Velodyne is an 11" cube that goes anywhere. In a normal size room a HGS-10 is plenty. I listen mainly to baroque chamber orchestra,organ music and The Who. It's only down -4 dB at 20Hz at my listening position. 20Hz is clean without doubling;it knocks dust off the ceiling fan and cracks the walls.
Velodyne Vs. Hsu
I'm trying to slowly update my system. Currently I've B&W N805s as my main; which will eventually become rears as I aspire to be able to get some N802s as main speakers.
My system will be working as both two channel music as well as a HT sytem. I mostly listen to Rollings Stones/U2/Billy Idol (95.5-classic Rock in L.A) type music. I'm a fan of deep/tight bass (as opposed to getto blaster bass). I'm looking into quality used sub classifieds.
Thanks in advance for your input guys.
