Well, if you're up for some other options, take a look at REL, ditributed by Sumiko. Someday when I hit the lottery or I have completed all of my other HT upgrades I plan on getting one of there ST line of subs. At your price range you could look at either the B or R series. I have auditioned them both as well as heard/seen several movies at my friends house who has one of the R-505's and it is superb!
