Sub Advice - Mission M8 or Pioneer SW90S

I need some advice on which sub woofer to get. It's only for my bedroom so I don't want anything: OTT and over £120 ideally.

Either:
Pioneer

or

Mission
http://www.hifibitz.co.uk/product.asp?id=790

Or if you have any suggestions on a different sub?
Thanks in advanced

Re: Sub Advice

I have no direct experience of either of the subs you mention, but have heard a few of this type and find them quite boomy, with not much real bass. A lot depends on the system that you have. These may be fine if you are using a mini system, but with separates and half decent speakers, I would be tempted to look at something a bit better, second hand.

£120 may be pushing it a bit, but for £150 you may start seeing REL Quakes or MJ Acoustics Pro 50s coming up on ebay, and these would be a far better bet than the ones you mention.
