    Bought this to replace 12yo Sony 5 channel system. Seems same as the older system. HOWEVER we're using 2 floor speakers, center and this sub. When 2 remaining speakers are purchased I would hope it would out perform my older system.

    This subwoofer is clear and represents an excellent value when purchased in a pair. The 10" size doesn't shake the floor which is sometimes distracting when watching a movie.
