I have a pair of Hsu TN1220HO, one with a brand new spanking 12" driver from Hsu (the previous guy sold me a fake driver in the cabinet), and one with an older but still great driver from Hsu. Also is the 500 watt stock Hsu amp which still retails for 750$ on their site. One TN1220HO and the amp retailed for 1k not so long ago, and Hsu is actually planning to revitalize the TN1220ho and bring it back for one sub and 1 amp for 1k+.
Each tower is 4' tall, 12" in diameter and about 20lb. The amp specs can be found here: http://www.hsuresearch.com/products/500w-amp.html. It is in great condition as well. The faceplate is impeccable as far as I can see. I took some deoxit to the pot and canned air it clean just last week. It is 2ohm stable, and it was designed to run two of these subs in parallel if need be, and that's how I used it. The amp I believe has an internal EQ in them which makes the Hsu flat to 20hz, and an internal XO if used is 91hz, however, I just bypassed it and used the XO in my pre/pro. So it's advisable to stick with a hsu amp for hsu subs.
I have owned quite a few subs in my day, a couple of SVS, Epik, Hsu, including the Plus and the NSD/ISD and Ultra cylinder, and by far these subs are much more musical. They have plenty of output for medium to large sized rooms, but if you're pushing a 30x30 room, then I'll be honest, these subs are going to need a little help. I haven't found anything to beat the musicality of these subs except my new James L4000P which retailed for 7k however. I would totally keep these subs just for their musicality but I don't have any more room of them otherwise they would stay. However, there is a brand spanking new driver in one of the sub which Hsu is using for their 12" subwoofer which costed me 200+tax just to replace, and it was well worth it. I am honestly just astounded by their musicality and I find it hard to beat them at their price point.
Here's some reviews on the TN1220HO which are unanimously good: http://www.audioreview.com/cat/speakers/subwoofers/hsu-research/tn-1220ho/PRD_119589_2741crx.aspx.
Tn1220HO w/old driver: 180
Tn1220HO w/new driver: 300
500 Watt amp: 280
Prices are negotiable and I'll give a discount to whomever wants to buy the item as a package, either all together or just two.

Is the sub still available? I can't afford both the sub and the amp atm, but I have a monoblock that is lonely and in need of work.The secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and greatest enjoyment is to live dangerously. - Nietzche
