hey now,
maybe someone could use this. more then half off.
What makes you feel the music in a professional venue is the same powerful force that will make you feel it at home: massive amounts of low-frequency bass. Through its light yet rigid PolyPlas™ cone frame, the Studio 550P subwoofer delivers powerful, nearly tangible deep notes and effects that...

Any insight on how good these are? Or, is the wood thickness and construction so basic that I'd be better off just skipping these and going up another step? Either For our living room, or for my home office.
Living room (14' x 20'; LR+C: Focal Aria 906 + CC900): looking to replace dual Rel T/5i subwoofers (8" sealed). Initially was replacing the Rel's with dual SVS SB-1000 or SVS SB-2000 (or similar). But, another option would be picking up 4 of these JBL subwoofers. We do not listen to movies very loud; so the main goal is solid extension of "music" bass primarily, but some decent movie effects as well. Smaller is better since this is primary living room and space is a premium.
Home Office (10.75' x 11.75'): Looking to add some bass extension to KH-120A speakers; music only (very rarely loud). I have a HSU 8" from many years back that I've been meaning to hook up. Would dual JBL 10" subwoofers make a positive difference vs. single HSU 8", given how small this room is?
Note: I do not mean to turn this "deals forum" into a discussion on subwoofer design for room size. Rather, just looking for guidance of whether these JBL 10" subs are even worth considering. The price point at $190 is extremely attractive since it allows the option for quad subs (Living Room) or dual subs (Home Office) — but only if I won't quickly regret the purchase decision (as I do with the Rel T/5i subs that I currently have).
