[QUOTE="LAV, post: 80749, member: 1123"] Ken's advice is very valid, but be careful...if the sub starts costing more than the system, or even approaching its price, then it it overkill for the purpose. R 650 is a bargain for a small sub from a reputable manufacturer and I'd take the chance. Plan B would be to start looking at other system upgrades or even replacement, or perhaps larger main speakers, but then cost becomes a factor. Subs differ greatly of course, but the general principle is usually that a larger driver will be able to move more air and go down lower in terms of frequency response. Some large subs will easily go down below 20 Hz. The PDR-8 specs reckon it will do 32 Hz. Again, for the price... [/QUOTE]
