Subwoofer to go with Wilson Maxx II's

I have a friend with speakers that don't really need a subwoofer.......they already do 20hz or so (Apogee Scintilla)

He added The Thigpen Rotary Woofer (Made by Eminent Technology) to his system and couldn't be more happy (5hz bass).

He says the rotary subwoofer is the best subwoofer in the world........looks like you can afford the best?

Edit: talked to my friend tonight for the first time in a while. He now has mbl 101 - MK II speakers, and two of the rotary subwoofers.

Make sure the sources your going to use go down below 20hz.CD players in the 80's used to say they went down to 5hz,but some newer high end CD's and DAC's only go to 20hz.

Oppo BDP-83& BDP-93 low limit is 20hz.So these won't work with analog out for movies.I no they're not hi-end though.

I had Maxx 2's and a REL studio 3. Now I have Alexandrias and a pair of JL Audio F113's. My current bass is FAR superior to what I had previously. I think it is important to know what you are trying to achieve. In short, I would get a pair of appropriately sized for your room JL subs. The bass on Maxx 2 is ample and good, but there is better out there. I found that the bass could get a little loose at times. Also, they usually don't go below 30hz when they are placed into the room as most of us do. The JL's room correction will improve the linearity of your bass, and they will go lower. After you buy them (get a stereo pair) and set them up, let me know if you still think the Maxx's were going down to 20hz.

We upgraded our demo theater from a Wilson Watchdog to a JL Gotham and have not looked back! Big room, and the Watchdog did not cut it at all. It was the passive model powered by a Classe CAM600.

Maybe you should get Wilson Thor's Hammer. :)
