The biggest monster sub woofer to date I have had in my media room is the SVS Pb12+2. Each PB 12+2 weighs in at 140lbs of pure bass dynamite! These subs WILL rock your world period. The PB12+2 comes equipped with dual 12″ subs, a 900 watt BASH amplifier, Parametric EQ (premium finishes only), and three patented 4″ high-flow flared ports. One of the things I liked the ability to do with the PB12+2 was actually tune the sub myself via the Variable 16Hz, 20Hz or 25Hz tuning. I ended up plugging two ports and leaving the third open which sounded the best in my room.
Never one to skimp on the bass department I was completely happy with the single SVS. In fact that one sub put out so much bass that we broke 3 pictures! Not in the media room, not in the dining room, but upstairs! nothing is safe on your walls with one of these monsters rolling out thunderous low frequencies. Like a true bass head I thought if one was good than two is better. I ordered another!
My media room is roughly 4000 cubic ft. partially open to the kitchen and the upstairs with vaulted ceilings, and one of these was plenty for my room. The second one was just plain too much for me to handle. Two of these made my stomach hurt. But it was fun while it lasted. Oh and I wont go into the third one! YEAHHHHHHH!!!!
Took some shots of these finely crafted subs. Two are in the rosewood finish and one is in the fine textured black. Since then two were sold and one used for a Tacoma home theater install I did for a very, very, happy customer, though he complains often of his stomach hurting:)

Some of you have already noticed Yamaha’s newly designed low profile subwoofer, the YST-FSW050. This subwoofer is so much more than just a new shape. It uses several of Yamaha’s latest technologies to offer a beautiful, low profile subwoofer with fantastic performance to boot. It employs the new Active YST II technology - a unique system in which the speaker and amplifier work together to cancel out impedance so the speaker unit has a perfectly linear motion. Advanced YST II helps to ensure the highest levels of sound pressure and overall performance. It also uses a linear port that helps minimize huffing and other extraneous noise. This is a down firing active subwoofer which helps evenly distribute bass throughout the room while remaining powerful. The subwoofer is also rack mountable and complements any Yamaha Sound Projector or Micro System. Even though this subwoofer is short enough to slide conveniently under a chair or a bed, the question is since it is so pretty, would you even want to?
The AV123 UFW-10 has to be one of my favorite little subs along with the
