Jeff, be sure to let us all know how that SVS works out for your buddy. I am giving very serious thought to getting one myself.

SVS, HSU, ect are all good choices. But, you mentioned "boomy" was a problem and that you might want some resale. So I'm going to recommend a sub that I think is very nice, even if it is not a big as some that you were looking at, the Velodyne Minivee

At $800 retail, maybe a little more then you want to spend, but I think a speaker as refined as the Studio 40 deserves a little more. Actually, you can get it for significantly less on Ebay. Come to think of it, with the 40s, I would pony up the extra cash and I would go for the SPL-1200R with automatic room correction. http://cgi.ebay.com/VELODYNE-SPL-120...em180028452738

That will kick the hell out of your upgradeitus.

The sub has been pre ordered but they won't start shipping them untill some time in October. The system he will be using it on will be for two channel stereo, so that will be the only way I hear it. It is for Bingo and he is not interested in home theater, but I will still let you know what I think of it, Jeff


He likes orchestras and violins
