    Sound & Vision Sep 2003 reviewed 10 subs bracketing your price range. You may also want to consider, seriously, the SVS subs.

    SVS 25-31PC+ or the HSU VTF-3 MKII are good and within your budget. Locally, either the Paradigm PW-2100 or 2200 will work well. Other options include the used and DIY markets.

    saw a good buy on a sunfire
    I saw someone on Audiogon selling a new sunfire tru sub, the 10" model, for $800 just a few days ago. I have not baught from there. But that is a good buy if there is no prob.. It isn't a bad sub at all for that kind of cash. I think normally they sell for about twice that.
    Just a thought.
    Take care
