    seeking advice: sub for sf concertino's

    I have a pair of Sonus Faber Concertino's and want to add a subwoofer. SF has the Gravis sub, but I'd like some advice on other options, perhaps less than the $1300 that the Gravis commands. It will be used in a surround set-up with the SF solo center channel and Paradigm in-wall rear speakers.
    Any advice to direct me to another sub?
    It will be in full view in the corner of the room, so asthetics is important.
    Of course, the right match to bring the best in sound is most important.
    ANY ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

    Musically speaking, REL would be the next recommendation. From there, M & K might be one to look at.

    If you are more concerned with slam than accuracy, then many more options present themselves.

      Sorry-- I can't recommend a sub but would love to read your impressions of the concertinos!

        I have the Concerto and opted for the REL Strata III. Blend is perfect.

          Advice needed- sub or new front speakers?
          by kleeper
          Hi all,

          New to the forum, though I've been hooked on B&Ws for 8 or 9 years now. Great place. Anyways, I'm looking to add to my setup and was hoping for a little advice from someone who knows more than I do (probably everyone in this forum, as I'll admit I'm a little deficient...

          Found Box; need advice for sub
          by Rolyasm
          Hello All,
          I found a pre-made box for $20.00 (Retail $100.00). I have pictures which I will try to attach. Part of the whole DIY problem is I don't have a lot of tools, so I thought this might be a way to make a nice sub without all the cutting and gluing. If it is a bad idea, please let...

          by Titan05
          I’ve been looking around the site for a while now and think I finally decided on building the Lineup Series for my first home theater speaker build. I’ve done a lot of car audio projects, but never ventured into home theater but I’m pretty excited about giving it a shot. Currently I have a 55”...

          Seeking advice for new 12" sub design
          by Spearmint
          Reading Kramskoi's thread about his Tumult experience using a sealed enclosure (great read BTW) I am seeking some advice on the best setup for a couple of new subs.

          Currently I have 2x 15in subs in ported enclosures tuned to around 15Hz, and these perform magically for both 2ch & HT....
