    Excellent low-end sound. It feels and sounds like I’m at the movie theatre. Simple and easy to pair. A little larger than expected but it is wireless and can be placed inconspicuously.

    It's a great little sub for a smallish room. You don't have to blast the soundbar to get some good base. If you're looking for some loudness and deeper base, I'd go with it's bigger cousin.

    Works perfectly. Please, please do your research with what this is compatible with. May not connect to general bluetooth. My opinion would be to buy this only if your receiver specifically lists this item for connecting purposes

    Purchased this as part of a soundbar package. The sub is great although it did take several attempts for it to pair. The remote control can raise and lower subwoofer volume as part of the master volume or just by itself which is great because I basically use Alexa to control everything else

    People tell you that a soundbar is really all you need if you're used to listening to in-tv speakers but a sub--especially this one adds so much oomph to your movie/tv experience. The floor rumbles and I love it.
