I'm working on a student budget (off to uni in a few months) here, and i've FINALLY decided that my combination of sennheiser HD 202 headphones and laptop speakers doesnt quite cut it. A lot of the music i listen to is pretty bass-driven (drum&bass, house etc) and also some foo fighters/fallout boy kind of stuff.
The other thing is that I'm also trying my hand at music production, so how important is a subwoofer?
I really just need a few recommendations on what to look for, my budget is anywhere between £60-150, depending on how my rather inconsistently-paying job (caddying) goes.
It's hard to tell how naive im being with my requirements vs my budget.
Also: I've only really looked at amazon, are there any well-known specialist stores that offer a decent range and prices?
Some stuff I've found, all on amazon, are any of these to be avoided?:
