Inexpensive but decent 8" subwoofers


My current setup is Bluesound Powernode (N330) -> Blueroom Minipods

Which obviously isn't a high end system, but balances decent sound with sleek looks.

Looking for a 8" subwoofer which won't break the bank. Bonus points if it also looks good/minimal!

I highly recommend the "slim" 8 inch subs by Monolith. They have 8,10 and 12 inch sizes you can slide under a sofa or wall mount. You can see the 12 inch (big) version mounted on my back wall if you look at my profile.

You also might consider the Audioengine subs. They have two models -- S6 and S8 (actually four models if you consider the wireless options for the above a separate model.)  I have an S8 and was quite pleased with it for the price, though it has now been replaced by a GE Supersub X (at 3X the price.)

You may wish to look at Totem Kin subwoofers. Their ultra-compact 8" sub sounds fantastic, is extremely well made, reasonably priced, and looks great too.
