    This is a decent sub woofer. It provides sound and gets the job done but it's not high end. I knew buying in this price point would affect the sound, but I'm still happy with my purchase. I'm planning on keeping becasue I'm not a deep base person.

    I had the cheap Panasonic surround sound that came with my Panasonic DVD player. I upgraded to a Sony 4k Blu-ray and decide to get real a real SUB and it sounds great!

    Decent Starter Sub for Budget Hoe Theaters

    This Sony subwoofer does a decent job of adding the minimum impact and presence, to round out a starter's home theater. Its output is definitely not earth-shaking, --you'd need to upgrade to something more powerful,-- but is enough, and not muddy-sounding at all.

    Great sound with awesome adjustments (gain and frequency). You may need to buy a 2 into 1 RCA cable since there is only one RCA input.

    So far, I am happy with the purchase. Was able to get this subwoofer while on sale at BB for $150 plus tax. In fact I bought two at this price. The bass sound is amazing at fraction of the price from other brands.

    Excellent sub for my system. Replaces the original sub from my JBL 7.1 system that died after 20+ years of use. This is a great match for this system .Had to turn down the total output to not overpower the rest of the system. Nice set of controls to tune it just how needed.
