Hello,
I read a lot of reviews on HSU, SVS and Velodyne and have been leaning towards a SVSPB12ISD/V..

I have just talked to an authorized dealer where I can get a PSW505 for $364 shp'd to my door.. Full warranty etc..

Can I go wrong? My listening space is ~18x22' but connected to another open space of the same or bigger dimensions. I need to upgrade from my PSW350.. Should I save my dough and go with one of the above listed, or will I be okay.. My fronts will be RTi6 or 4's (or i28's) with a CSi3 (or CSI30) center, and rears wil be RTi4's (or i28's) or TC series in ceilings.. Currently running a Denon 2802..

Any pro's and cons on the PSW505 will be appreciated!

    Just like I wouldn't buy an SVS bookshelf speaker over a Polk; I wouldn't buy a Polk subwoofer over an SVS. The each have their niche.

    I'll bet the 505 kicks ****, I had a 404 and it was just, OK.. The SVS on the other hand wont leave you second guessing. Its a solid sub at any of their levels.
