Just purchased a home theater 7.1 system, but couldn't swing the xtra $'s for a good sub. Am now saving up for one and could use some help in determining what would be a good $400 or less sub ( preferably less)
Components
Panasonic 50"G10
Denon AVR1910
Revel M12 Bookshelf, C12 Center and IC65 speakers
Apple TV
and basic DVD player
The room has a cathedral ceiling and is very open space.
Any quidance would be most appreciated.

Hi Stoney and welcome.
Here is a sub, very reasonable, good quality, it's a 10" Energy:

I own the 8' Energy, which I use for music, I have been very happy with it.It does blend well with many different brand speakers. (if you want to see the 8' just hit next on the link I sent you). You may want the 10" rather than the 8" dependeing on the size of your room.
I also own the HSU STF-2, it has a 10' woofer, the price is $349, and well rated.

But to be honest, if I would have known the Energy would have dropped the price as much as they have, I would have gone for the Energy 10". IMO, the HSU doesn't justify the 2.5 X price difference.
