i am looking at the sony 12" 150 watt rms sub "sa-wm500"
it is on sale and i want to replace this little philips 5inch(or whatever size it is)
powered sub with something bigger and better
so if anyone has it please tell me how you like it

thnx in advance, ~Magick_Man~
 
its not a great home theater sub, one of my friends has a simlar one, but it is not the exact same model. But it would be a great comupter sub, and would be an awesome addition to a PC system. My only concern would be if your speakers draw power from the amp in the sub enclosure, and then you could not get rid of the sub.
 
yeah i just got it and i really like it,
but a downside is the bass can be too "boomy" if you turn the amp gain on the sub too hign but with the right adjustments it should be just fine.
and it should go great with the set of infinity rs8s's i should be getting (hopefully)
they are soo purdy :)

for now i have a philips 80 x 5 reciever
but that is the next, and last piece of my philips htiab that i have left
it works good enough but i am going to need a new reciever before too long (money permitting) :)
maybe a Harman Kardon
or something like that if i can afford it
i would like to go ahead and step up to 6.1 or maybe even 7.1
i have all the speakers i will ever need but i just need a better reciever :)
ilkl know tonight if i am gonna get those infinity's (i hope i do)

but within 20 seconds of the end of the auction they shot up to 270 :mad: :mad:
