Hello all. I finally have money to purchase a new home theater system (upgrade from a small $300 shelf system purchased in high school many years back), and I am considering the Axiom EP500 and the Hsu VTF-3 MK3. The subwoofer would be placed in a corner of my my room (less than 3000ft^3), and it will be difficult to get to to turn it on and off. I am wondering if I can leave it on, and if I leave it on, will it suck up tons of electricity? Any input/recommendation on subs to purchase would be appreciated as well. The EP500 would really be pushing my budget, and if the Hsu is competitive it would be nice to save $600 or so. As info, my system is going to be...
