Anyone looking to get rid of a PSW404 or a Velo CT-100 or similar for this price range? I know it might be a stretch.

I was going to buy the PSW505 from someone here for $300 plus shipping, but I just got a huge tax bill last night and it killed my buying power.

After a 3 hr argument with my money holder (aka wife) I got an agreement on $200 range. I know I can't get the 505 at that price.

So I am looking for a kind hearted person who wants to help me get some decent bass for a fair price and maybe re-locate an unappreciated sub to someone who will cherish it immensely.

The PSW202/250/303 just ain't gonna cut it in my living room (18x24x8)with several large openings to a stariwell and other rooms. I have Monitor 10A's as fronts and RT28i's as surrounds (no cash for a center yet).

I know the 404 and CT-100 will probably just squeek by, but I am jammed up right now on cash.

Anyway, I read how people have trouble selling their subs, so I am putting up this offer. I am not expecting miracles, just fair price. I have been looking at e-bay relentlessly, but there are just a bunch of folks selling at retail.

zip is 06416 for shipping (I'll take it the slowest cheapest way possible).

Anyone? I am begging here.

TIA

    Where are you located?

    Edit, nevermind, I see the zip code. I'll have a look around, I may have a Solid Solutions PB100 (B&W ASW500).

    Thanks Russ

    Never thought speakers would cause me such trouble at home.

    Speakers are a very expensive habit. Im finding that out now. It took a whole year to talk the wife into getting a PSW-404, but I got it.

    Good for you.

    Great thing about speakers is that when you are tired of listening to them, you can just turn off the sound.

    MGD,

    Turn on your private msging, or email me. I may have a couple choices for you in your price range, including shipping and insurance.

    Then we can discuss, and I can get you pics / specs whathave you.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    I have a psw450 sitting around that I would like to sell if you are interested. The 450 is the predecessor to the 404. There is a small dent in the back corner of the sub that was there when I bought it used, but the sub performs perfectly fine and I don't notice the dent looking at the front. I would be willing to sell you the sub for $215 obo plus shipping. Let me nkow if you are interested and I can take it out of the box and take pictures of it for you.

    Sag.

    E-mail me photos. Sooner is better since I am checking out Russ' offer also. I am interested. Forum says you can't receive e-mails. I am checking e-mail all night. Address (spilt to avoid auto scanning by spammers) is

    Russ

    Got the photos and I am doing my research on them between playoffs and sick 18 month old daughter. I am vaguely familiar with one and not at all with the other. Thanks for the quick turnaround. I'll be e-mailing you back after I do my homework.
