I just got the Audiosource 15" 200 Watt from Amazon for $160 shipped. Teeth shattering bass for cheap. It was a little boomy like the Sony at first but $2 in poly-fil fixed that in 5 minutes. The enclosure is huge but it's still not large enough for a 15" without the help of poly-fil. Car audio bassheads are fimiliar with this technique.

Use the $15 off $100 code in the Bargain forum and Buy a $100 Amazon GC from Giftcertificates.com and use the code also found in the Bargains forum to get a $25 GC for free. Free shipping on this monster.

I have the ACI Titan which is the best sounding sub I have heard and I've heard most of them. It's expensive though $899, but worth every penny.

Have you looked at any other subs, and if not what is your budget? I haven't heard the S112PS, but I have 2 AR-S500's in my set-up (still waiting on the SVS-SS) and I have had no complaints out of them. I'd have a hard time recommending the Sony sub, unless you are totally strapped for cash or have a small room for your HT.
