That's a lot of bass
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hooked this up here in the condo while we wait for the new home to be built. I had to reach for the level adjustment quick as this could really make the neighbors unhappy if I let it go. Never had that problem before.

Wow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase this to replace my old Polk sub that died, let me tell you this thing hits hard I can notice in extreme difference compared to the Polk, extremely happy with this. It is pricey but it's definitely worth the cost.

Huge improvement over the Polk 10
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bass this subwoofer produces is uncanny. You won't be disappointed when you hook this up to a powerful receiver. It will shake your walls and chairs if you want it to.... and I do. Thought about buying two, but one is sufficient...

Great Powered Sub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sub has plenty of power to boom out those low's and have you feel its presence. Being a 12" sub, it's not something you're really going to be able to hide in your living room. But if can find a place for it, I highly recommend it.

Great Sub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a $1200 sub that ended up blowing and was really bummed so I grabbed this guy in a pinch for a party I was having at my house and it is louder and sounds way better for a quarter of the cost. Looks great too!

Open box item
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was surprised to see this as an open box item. Even more surprised it was eligible for shipping since there were none locally. I always thought open box availability was local only. But about the sub... this is my second one. Not because the first was damaged, I added a second to my home theater to balance it out. One would have been just fine. I barely have it up and my Denon AVR-4400H still says turn it down during the Audessy setup. Which is quite impressive since I have 130w each channel. It’s well rounded and sounds amazing. Especially with some Stevie Ray Vaughan or some old Eric Clapton jamming. I ran a few audio tests and the sub does get lower than advertised. At an inaudible 5hz I could feel vibrations but couldn’t hear them. IMPRESSIVE!

Outstanding
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought my subwoofer was bad because of a humming noise. Connected this subwoofer up and got the same humming noise and then discovered a bad connection. So now both subwoofers are humming out Good tunes. Works great!

Booming bass from a relatively small box.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unbelievable how much bass comes from such a small package. I had to turn the volume knob on the back as they overpowered the living room and got too "muddy." . Adds amazing amount of "boom" to movies. Sounds awesome!

Great affordable subwoofer!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought that this might not be able to hold its own to the velodyne I replaced, however I was more than surprised with the deep but not overpowering bass. I also paid much less for this than the velodyne as I caught it on sale!
