+2 on the Onkyo 605.

+1 on internet direct speakers such as av123.

TimothyB, if you were going to go "budget" on a sub for $500 why not go with the Hsu VTF-2 MK 3 (I'm probably going to pick this up soon myself). Also, while that is a great price on the PB 12-Plus, I'd also seriously consider the Hsu VTF-3 MK 3 or the VTF-3 HO. They score better than the PB12 line on craigsub's rankings (obviously that's subjective but his rankings are highly regarded, as I'm sure you're aware).

I just couldn't remember all the subs out there and I do recall hearing the HSU name just as much, just forgot. I'm sure any sub is good, but now that you point out an HSU for $499 with a 12inch woofer, doesn't look like you could go wrong. I haven't been researching for some time so I'm a bit rusty. I had ended up with an AV123 UFW-12 b-stock I think for $499, and that included the r-des equalizer box, a screaming deal as most the time the bstock now doesn't include that at $599, but only full $1100 price.
