Sub Upgrade for Music and Home Theatre

I would like to get some advice on a subwoofer that I would be using for both Music and Home Theatre. The three subwoofers that I am currently considering are:
Talon Roc (Original)
Aerial Accoustics SW-12
Velodyne DD 12
I would be purchasing used and the main spkrs are Tyler Accoustics Linbrooks with outboard crossovers.
Any help in making this decision would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Rodney

I use a Rel Strata 3 and it is great. However I purchased a Jeff Rowland Concerto integrated and cannot figure out how to get it set up. When I contacted Rowland they said to call Sumiko. And quess what Sumiko suggested after I contacted them-you guessed it, contact Rowland. Any suggestions out there?

Reliability issues with the DD series from Velodyne. I have DD-12 and DD-15. Both amps have been sent in for repairs. Service was rapid and reasonably priced......but still.

I'm a Rel fan - my Storm III is incredible for music, although I don't use it for home theater I can't imagine it's not equally outstanding.

dumboat2@yahoo.com, you need to use the high level cable connected to the speaker outputs of your amp. The Strata III manual says how to do it - it's straight forward, and much better than RCA interconnect to low level inputs. The only situation I can think of for using the RCA inputs is to connect to a pre-pro for LFE.
