    Replacing a older Sony Subwoofer

    Bass response is much better than the older one that appears to have been electronically damaged. The older one sounded like the subwoofer cone was blown, but upon destructive examination (front cover was glued to the box, it was fine). This unit sounds much better and I can enjoy the sounds without heavy distortion. The controls are on the back of the subwoofer and not the top, so it may be a little cumbersome for adjusting.
