    Works as described! Easy initial setup and instructions were clear on how to adjust the ‘gain’ and ‘the pass’ to your meet the needs of your specific layout and speakers. But the instructions were straight forward and it only took about 15min to get it just right. Provides plenty of bass and with the added bonus of having the sub nice and tucked away by using the wireless capabilities has made this a 5 star review. No bulky sub getting in the way of an intentionally clean aesthetic. Best of both worlds. Have your cake and hear it too!

    I wanted a small sub for the small Marantz system. It has a pair of 5.1's, and 4.2's. The small speakers need a little more low end. Setup was easy 'cause I have 4 other Klipsch subs. 2 wired, 2 with transmitters. Tinkered with the setting on the AVR and sub. I'm happy with the purchase, and very happy with the sale price.

    In my experience Klipsch are definitely quality speakers. I'm really happy with this thing so far super versatile you can hook up with the Bluetooth or with a line . It's also not a massive speaker so it can be tucked away nicely. The Bluetooth adapter is just icing on the cake .

    Sarge’s Subwoofer

    I purchased this Subwoofer to go along with my five Infinity ERS-110DT ceiling mounted speakers and Yamaha RX-V581 AV receiver. My old sub fizzled out a while back and this Sub has added substantially to my sound system. I turn it up about halfway and it has plenty of bass for me. I listen to a lot of YouTube worship music and some movies and tv programming. I use the Line/LFE inputs since my home is wired for it, so I can’t comment on the wireless option. I love the green led power light so I know when it’s off or on and keep it on auto. So far so good!

    Love that this subwoofer is wireless so I am not limited to where it is places. Plus I don't have wires running every where that I have to try and hide. Sound is awesome and works well with my Samsung TV.

    Overall very impressive sub. Much smaller than the pictures show. Small & compact but does pack a punch. Replaced an Onkyo of the same size, this one produces the lower end much more cleanly. It does clip when pushed a bit too hard (so did the Onkyo), such as loud explosions but some tuning will probably take care of it. My room is already wired for the sub so I cannot say how the wireless feature works. Bought on a sale so happy with the price but overall I wish I sprung for the larger sub and still do. 3 weeks later the 10" is on sale for the same price as this was and best buy won't let me return. Very annoying. Good for a small room but watch for the BB sales and spring for the 10" if you can.

    I did not "need" to replace our existing 10" Klipsch Subwoofer from 2004 but my wife got tired of the huge subwoofer sitting next to the TV stand. So I started researching wireless subwoofers and found this model. I ordered it on a Friday and was delivered the next day. The "install" was next to nothing and took me just a few minutes. This subwoofer is sitting behind our couch and sounds great. We are a house with two little kids so a Dolby Digital 7.1 THX blah blah blah is not important to us. We just know it sounds great with our receiver and our other surround sound speakers. Great subwoofer and great price!

    Great product, with terrific sound. I was needing a second subwoofer, and had one that I thought would work, but when hooked up to my receiver, there was subwoofer him. After swapping cables the hum wasn’t any better. That’s when I found that my local Best Buy had this wireless subwoofer on sale. I purchased the subwoofer and and I haven’t looked back. The bass reproduced is phenomenal. I performed great when both listening to music and when watching movies. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a subwoofer for there system, or to just do a upgrade. The great thing about it, is that you can place it anywhere that has a power outlet without any cables or problems of subwoofer cable hum or feedback.

    Using this for my PC desk audioengine speakers. I was interested in it due to it's smaller size relative to usual home theater subs. I just plugged an red/white RCA cable from the speaker outputs to the RCA input on this sub, didn't even need the wireless function but it is nice to have. Works great! Truly incredible sound, brings the speakers alive. The bass is not overly tight or overly boomy under my desk on carpet. Nice to have the volume adjustment and the low-pass adjustment as well as the automatic on switch function. Highly recommended, would definitely work great in small to medium rooms for home theater too.

    Just needed a little punch to compliment my Klipsch bookshelf speaker for my audio system. Since I have some space constraints to deal with, I needed something that I could put a little further away from the rest of the audio components. After reading mostly positive reviews, I decided that this was my best option. This was the perfect fit for my needs and exactly what I was hoping it would sound like.

    This is a superb subwoofer, super responsive bass, my surround system feels like a movie theater now, one thing I love was the fact that it blend extremely well with my furniture, I have an ikea media center and the box fit perfectly on one of the squares, wireless worked without any issues during testing but I’s fairly close to my head unit so I used a cable. Price and quality are unmatched by others on the same price point in my opinion.

    Hits plenty hard for such a small subwoofer, never had any issues at all with connection or lag. Easy to access and use physical controls on back of sub. Only complaint is the led is a little too bright, but that's easily fixed with a small piece of electrical tape.

    I got this Wireless Subwoofer as a second sub for my home theater because it was compact and being wireless for easy setup. It was incredibly simple to add, to my home theater and does a great job at filling out the low end. Not sure what else to say. It is tiny and powerful!

    I always wanted to own a set of premium subwoofers for my home theater and I was happy with my selection of these speakers . They look and sound great and were easy to set up. I'm very happy with my purchase. 5.2 never sounded better!

    I was worried about potential delay through the wireless function but notice no delay at all in operation. Very easy to find a place for this compact unit and very pleased with the amount of bass put out by this subwoofer. Highly recommend.
