    Checked the reviews of a few other sub woofers and decided to go with the Sony. Very pleased with my choice, added perfect low end to my surround system. Also the price was right.

    Sub is powered with good clear sound. It does have a good safety feature which shuts the sub off when movies don't have the base or action. While good this can be frustrating.

    Replaced my 10yr.old + Sony Sub with this one and love it. Easy connectivity, and adjustable for theatre or music. Just wish the adjustments were more accessible instead of being buried in the back.
