      Hi Foolio1247, We're glad to hear you feel that the SACS9 subwoofer is worth its price! SA-CS9 gives you deep, rich bass from this powerful active subwoofer, and it includes a built-in amplifier with up to 115 W power output. The unit is powerful and compact, perfect for easy installation in tight spots. Because of the reduced baffle area, the speaker minimizes sound field distortion for optimum clarity and precision. Thank you for choosing SONY. -Sam Sony_US

    Very good sub especially for the price. Of course you can obviously get much better subs, but for 3-5x the price easily. Overall for pretty darn good sub for the set up.

    This subwoofer gives some pretty serious bass, Subtracting 1 star as the case is rather large if you don't have the space to hide it. Setup was very straightforward, but I have not ensured all the crossover frequencies are tuned with the receiver.
