This subwoofer for massive lows hands down amazing for home audio with an FS of 19hz . If you can build a T-line for it, You'll be hitting 10-40hz very very strong. Dont think your house foundation can handle it.

Dayton Audio UM15-22 15" Ultimax DVC Subwoofer 2 ohms Per Coil

This would be more for overall balanced sound quality BUT it can hit lows too with a properly tuned box.

Dayton Audio RSS390HO-4 15" Reference HO Subwoofer 4 Ohm

These choices would be superior to all others since they were made to excel in home audio, they can handle power but they are quite efficient and dont need that much power and respond well to low tuned enclosures.

Kind of enclosures you want to go with would be T-lines, tapped/folded ported horns, or low tuned ported in that order from best to mieh

If this is for home audio I would definitely go a different route than sound qubed...... In my house I've got a Jbl 2226 18..... out of your price range but I love it

I'd pick up an SI before they're gone

I wouldn't call that out of my price range. I've paid a lot for my JL audios and would do it for my home theater system too. I have a JL HO112w6v3 on my home theater now and it sounds good but I need lower and deeper bass .

Jeff, I'm

Willing to make a t-line for that Dayton. Can you get me a drawing ?? Also, is T-Line the deepest bass I can get?

The thing with efficient subs is, they don't require gobs of power to do the job., I had an mb quart pwe354 on 175wrms, and.it vibrated the.dishes on the other side of the house, in a 1.5cuft sealed.enclosure.
