I wonder if this sub is the same as the crittically acclaimed 8" pioneer designed by Andrew Jones? their specs are nearly identical.

I am not quite sure but I bought this sub to match my Pioneer home theatre speakers and I kid you not it thumps! Downside of it all is I dont used my home theatre sounds that much cause it would shake my whole apartment complex. I wasnt sure what amount of power the sub punch! I have to keep turning down the volume cause it would rattle the whole complex. You have to be to mix the sound right during set up. Once you got it right then watch out!

I have the Polk TSi400's. Doing a side-by-side sound comparison is virtually impossible anymore since few if any stores will carry both speakers you are considering like these. I have seen the Pioneers before and will say that the Polks are much more expensive looking. The Pioneers have gotten favorable reviews in the audio publications however. I have zero regrets about buying the Polks and I paid more than the current selling price.

Nope it is the same product! And i love mine. Great performance and a kick ass sound.

Wow man I wish I could answer that question. I really don't know. I mean it's a $60 sub. I'd think if you're sincerely concerned about those technicalities a more expensive setup is more for your liking.

I just received an email from Pioneer. It is for sale on their site as of today. Just picked one up. Shipping is free...but they charge sales tax in my state.

I went on Walmart's site just now and I found the unit at the very bottom of the Pioneer 518 page. However they say they are not selling it online right now. Maybe there was a bit of trouble because the price was so low. Sorry to mislead you. They do have the 918 though for 238 which I bought and it sounds great. See you guys.

I bought the Pioneer Andrew jones designed SP--PK52FS speakers system with the powered subwoofer to match. Al speakers are very bid and work very well with this receiver. Remember the sub woofer has its own power supply. You have full control of everything regarding what the speakers do and don't have to worry about any " automatic" strange stuff happenning

The 8040BP is bipolar and makes for better surround and rear speakers. Chet at Def Tech confirmed this.

My cousin, to my dismayed surprise, has the Soundbot SB240 upon showing off my 66 Audio. They look the same, they feel the same, they sound the same, they ARE the same. Unless you think the extra pouch is worth it, no the extra cash is not justified.

Correct, these are the same without the sub. Maybe they redesigned them recently and these are not the redesigned ones..?

Depends from whom you buy from.If us I would try to accomodate your choice but cannot guaranteed it-Pioneer changes without warning.Fran sicamera@aol.com

The '66 has speakers on the bottom instead of the sides and an oval, not rectangular base, otherwise no difference. Best Buy and Walmart have used near-identical models like this to avoid having to price-match other retailers.

Why match a powerful 12", 300W-460W subwoofer with a weak, small 4", 80W bookshelf speakers? Doesn't make sense. I'm getting the BIC FH-65B 6.5" 10W -175W, 96db speakers for my PSW505. If you're going to go cheap and stick with the SP-BS22-LR Andrew Jones then you should get the PSW10 for half the price ($95) of the PSW505. They are a better power and price match.

Another thought - it looks like the TX-SR507 and 607 will be available shortly. Maybe a 707 and 807 will follow soon. Why this would lead to a price /increase/, much less a widespread increase mysteriously to exactly MSRP on the same day sans collusion or corporate coercion, is beyond me. Maybe if an 807 is available soon at a sub $700 price I'll bite, otherwise I think I have narrowed my search down to Sony ES or Yamaha.
