I should say I have no experience with Hsu subs current offerings, but they’re great subs and a great value. My reason for recommending the SVS SB1000s is that I own an SB2000 and it’s incredible. It’s stuffed behind my TV and shakes my whole downstairs to the rafters by itself. Haven’t used it for music, but two SB1000s will get you down to an honest 20Hz (-3dB) so given my experience I doubt you’d be disappointed, and I think their new integration software/app is a big plus. But if Hsu has something comparable I wouldn’t hesitate to explore that option either. Whatever u do, get two subs. Best of luck.
I need a subwoofer recomendation
I've got a couple KEF Q900's powered by a Yaquin tube amp and primarily play records. I'm looking for a sub that might also work for movies down the road if I ever put together a surround system. The sub needs to have speaker level inputs and I'm looking to spend $500-$700. My room is 20x20 with a vaulted ceiling and hard surfaces. I've been looking at the HSU VTF-2 Mk5 and the SVS SB-1000 and SB-1000 pro. Is there anything else I should be considering?
On a separate note, if I head down the surround system path, I was thinking of starting with the KEF Q250 or Q650 center speaker to start. Is there something other than KEF I should be looking at that would be a decent match with my Q900's?
