Great sub for a home theater system
5
Posted by: Cruz1914 from Chicago, IL on 04/29/2013I have seen and heard a lot of Subwoofer's that were bigger than this one that cost just as much. The Definitive Technology puts Quality first. It is small and does not take up much space but don't let the size fool you. I guess big things do come in small packages at times. Not only is the bass hitting but the sound quality is just awesome. Don't let the price scare you because quality is worth paying for.

EARTHQUAKE!!!
4
Posted by: redLectroid from Bloomingdale, IL on 04/09/2013I've had this sub for a year and I am overall pleased. The remote, along with the digital display, is super handy. Being able to tune the phase to your seating position makes a HUGE difference in sound.
I like the different EQ settings as well. It does make a difference when watching a movie or listening to music. I don't turn this sub up too loud so I can use the EQ1 setting witch gives you lower lows. When I do turn it up loud, I just leave the EQ off. I usually have the volume up to 10 and up to 16 when I really want to shake the house. It goes up to 40 but there really is no need to go that high.
This is the first sub that I've paid over $150 for and there is no comparison in sound, volume and quality. However, there does seem to be some lacking in the upper hz range. I have a car with a factory sound system and I can feel the bass in this upper range, but with this sub it seems to be a little weak, but this is noticeable when playing music.
For movies, this sub makes the earth shake and shatters molecules. No complaints there. There were a few times, when I first got this, that I got some distortion when watching a movie but this sub is so tuneable that I've never had that problem again.
I realize that this is not a high end sub so this will not have the sound or impact of a high end sub. However, it doesn't have the huge price of one nor take up a giant amount of space either.
All in all, this is a fantastic sub for the money. I thoroughly enjoy it and love its features. I was going to get the sc2000 but I am glad I went for the extra features with the sc4000.

Great sub for any space
5
Posted by: RjbxDowningtown from Downingtown, PA on 01/20/2013I have a large room that is open on two sides and my 400 watt Klipsch didn't give me the punch I was looking for. I read may articles on running dual subs and wont try to repeat what is already well documented. I ought the sub, tunes it to my space and was not disappointed. At half volume this sub shakes the house. It's has power and settings if subs twice twice cost. The remote makes tuning the sub simple.

Posted by: Lonet from Miami on 06/21/2012This sub is amazing!, i first bought the supercube 2000 , but i own the supertowers 8060 model with included subs and to my ears sounded a little weak for my particular setup, not the case with the 4000, i have them connected to a denon 4311 ci , havent calibrated it yet, but all i can say is wow without calibrate them , the sub really delivers, grat for music, superb with movies, you wont regret getting one of these..

Favorite part of my system besides the TV

Posted by: P210pilot from Cincinnati, Ohio on 03/04/2012This subwoofer is freakin' awesome!!! You go to the movies and feel all the bass surround you. Well, this allows the same thing right in your home. This is an excellent match with my Mirage OS3 speakers. I get the crispness and clarity of the speakers, and the clean power from the subwoofer.

Tough little sub
5
Posted by: jlowest1980 from on 01/05/2012Bought from BB Magnolia. Auditioned the Supercube 2000 for about a week then blindly ordered the 4000. Initial impression : goes very low and is very loud, especially given the 8" driver. I currently have the sub paired with some powerful Polk towers (with built in subs) and the sc 4000 could easily over take the towers. My set up is in a tiny bedroom currently and I have to keep the sc turned down most of the way. Turned up it will pressurize this little room. I cannot wait to set this up in a bigger area my expectation is that it will fill up nicely.
My recommendation is buy this speaker and keep it in the open to show off. It sounds great a looks prettier than any sub I have ever seen.
A side note : This is not a bedroom sub. On the contrary it needs room to breath. I'm certain the sc 4000 will fill most living rooms and satisfy most audio enthusiasts. Maybe a select few will wanna consider the sc 6000 and up but I really dont know many homes, vaulted ceilings being the exception, that would need it.

Low Bass
4
Posted by: MixinMatt from Las Vegas on 11/10/2011It took a little bit of time to optimize this subwoofer for my room, but once I got it right, it sounded incredible. Very low and realistic bass. Just keep in mind the demo at a store is not realistic to your at home environment. . Very tight bass. Plays loud. Very small footprint.
