Right now i am using some Q Acoustics 3020 speakers with a Fosi Audi V3 Amp.

And im looking to purchase a sub to go with them. (im a total newbie got no idea about audio stuff, so need your guys advice)

Requirements:
sub must be sold on amazon usa
sub must be 110-220/240v
sub must be $200 max

I have found these 3 subs that match my requirements so far.




(the Polk Audio PSW10 is on sale now for $159, but sadly its 110v only so i cant use it)

thanks all

Personally I'd just save up for a better sub or at least better define your goals.

right now this is just a budget setup to use with my pc for watching movies and listening to flac music.

In a few years i plan to upgrade to a bigger and better more expensive system.

What's the used market like in your area? That may be a better way to get better value. I'd look at some of the Monoprice subs that Brett Butterworth found decent perhaps for $200 budget otherwise. Maybe a Dayton SUB1200?

Agree;

Maybe take a look at Jamo C912 Sub, the Elac SUB1010 or the Polk PSW10 too.

$99 is too cheap and low quality, i want to be near the top of $200

amazon has this monoprice one, is this better than the 3 subs i listed in my first post?

Klipsch R100SW is 199 USD?

And the Yamaha NS-SW100BL

Also take a look at this very helpful collection of data-->

Yeah, that's why I posted the other Monoprice one which is RRP $229, so can likely be found around the $200 mark.

Definitely go through the subwoofer comparison thread.

Klipsch R100SW = $199 used on amazon usa, but not shipping to my location (plus i never buy used items, only brand new)

Yamaha NS-SW100BL = This item cannot be shipped to your selected delivery location. Please choose a different delivery location.

I've edited my former post. Take a look at the links.

That's not really describing your goals for the sub, just bare minimum requirements.

If you aren't a troll you are acting like one. Slow down, and listen to helpful suggestions.

If you have special requirements, at least tell us the country you are in. Yes, it is private, but if you want good advice sort of needed info. Otherwise you are abusing the help of members here. If you simply give the country, how much privacy have you given up?
