#93 HSU Research VTF-1 MK2: $699 Discontinued eBay
Newer model: the HSU Research VTF-1 MK3, ranked higher, rated 3.8/5, released Nov 2016 (also discontinued). See every HSU Research VTF-1 generation.
Pros: A compact ported 10 inch subwoofer with good output in the upper bass, useful in multiple sub setups, now discontinued. The 10 inch driver is paired with a 200W RMS amplifier. Measured output averages 112.9dB from 40 to 80Hz, with 114.0dB at 63Hz, which suits a small to medium room. The tight cabinet gives quick, controlled bass and works well when two are used together.
Cons: Output drops to 87.9dB at 25Hz, so extension is limited for movie effects in the lowest octave. At 19.1kg and 457 x 356 x 432mm it is compact but heavy for a 10 inch sub. It is discontinued, so you would have to buy used or step up to the newer model, and the output is modest for a large room.
