I checked out my local Paradigm dealer here in Canada and the PW-2200 retails for $1200 but rest assured, you can take one for $1000 plus taxes. And those PS subs can be had for $200 to $300 less then retail. Paradigm sale guys are very motivated to sell even if they come across like they are not. The potential buyer holds all the cards, just don't act like you are going to fold, and you will get a deal. And by the way there popolz, I do have a PW-2200, and by itself it smokes my previous two subs combined which were a PDR-10 v3 and a PS-1000 v3. Since I see how financially restraintive (is that a word) you are, I have a feeling that if you are use to having two subs to even out all the bass, once you hook up the Pw-2200, you will be thinking, man, I gotta get me another. I can tell you I sure want two of them but a big widescreen tv is next on my list.
