Looking for best subwoofer in $200-275 range

I got the BIC H-100 for my 2.1 setup and it's great. Now I just need to convince the better half that I need the AV123 Bigfoot Center Channel

They've also got some other awesome products like a 25Wx2 (4ohms) integrated amp for $129, also includes a 100 crossover with a sub-woofer pre-out. it's called the X-19 "Gizmo." A great compeitor for $140 Trends Audio amp. Provides some more power and features.

They've got a $179 bookshelf too called the "WAF-1" which I guess is fill the void where the old $199 X-LS was (now the X-LS Encore is ~$350)

.. Interesting.. Craig seems really high on the Scamp. I'll have to keep my eye on it.

Rocket pricing is soon to go up.

Bigfoot will be $549 (vs. $449).

Jusging by the picture, cant you just move that shelf up one or two slots? It seems you have more than enough space.

i might be able to move up the bottom shelf one slot. the top shelf can't go any higher or i won't be able to see the receiver display easily. i don't think that one slot will give me enough space below for the sub to fit. i'll look into it a bit more though.

edit: i moved the bottom shelf up one notch. the bottom shelf brackets are in the way for the sub to stand upright and slid far enough back towards the corner. i'll just leave it on it's side.

Gee, Craig high on something he sells? Get outta here....what kind of car salesman is he? :laugh:

Lol yeah well it seems like he's like an extension of AV123 right now, he's taken over their defunct projects and has their engineers designing his products, so really he's a big salesman at this point, i guess Mark S's talking head lol.

True, but the guy knows what he's talking about.
