Making Changes

I'm looking to make a few adjustments in our living room rig and a new sub will be the first order of business. Having just moved, I am working with much larger space than I previously had and the Sunfire Super Junior is just not providing the w0w factor like it did in our older/much much smaller living room.
The layout of the room is 18' wide x 28' long. The ceiling is vaulted to 12' at the center of the room and the walls on each end are 8' tall. FWIW, I am truly splitting the room for theater use and using the back half as a dining area.
The subs I am looking at...
-HSU VTF-15h
-Epik Empire
-Emotiva Ultra Sub12 (I am considering running 2 of these)
-Kinda looking at the new SVS PB12NSD (had a PB10 and I think I would rather run two Emotivas for a similar price)
My goals...
-speedy and accurate bass (any of the three choices will be doing just as much two channel duty as HT)
-If I feel the urge, I want the couch and walls to move a little.
-stay under 1k in purchase.
Input? Anyone own any of three I am looking at? Have any regrets? Better thoughts on a different brand?
Thanks in advance!

I'd throw my hat in on the Emo's, if thats your only dual option. I've heard great things about them, should be fairly tight for music, and duals will rock the HT. No brainer IMO. Happy shopping!
