Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have been on a mission to hide all my speakers in cabinets, tables, etc. My previous subwoofer seemed like it was almost as big as a park bench, and it was 33 years old, so I decided to go with two smaller ones. I was able to fit isolation feet on the B&Ws and squeeze them into our entertainment cabinet next to the right and left bookshelf speakers. This would be a nightmare for an audiophile, but they sound great to me and I barely have them turned up. Great, solid, bass from a small footprint. Really could have just gone with one, but two balances everything out in the cabinet. Highly recommend!

Perfect size for my IKEA cubicle,and bedroom...I have this paired with the Bowers & Wilkins - 4" 100W Satellite Speaker and the Bowers & Wilkins - 600 Series Anniversary Edition 2-way Bookshelf Speaker w/6.5" midbass and it really adds the low end those were missing.Now I feel the bass and it is so good.I am a novice Audiophile and recently came into a little cash so decided to splurge a bit.My one complaint is the price seems a bit on the high side,although it is a quality piece of gear,I feel like a 100 dollars cheaper would be a better price.

Perfect size and color for my console unit. It gives my other speakers which are Bowers & Wilkens a great boost in sound. Im now playing my CD's more.

I got this when it was on sell for around 250 ish and it just makes a huge difference in all around in joyment if i had more money id biy another one THIS IS A MOST BUY

Good pair with B&W 606 S2, It’s need wall corner to perform loud.

this is the best quality Bass speaker for the money

Great quality. Slowly been upgrading to B&W always a great product

It's a good basic sub. I have 700s and it's just not good enough for that, but I am sure for a smaller setup it's fine. Incredible quality.

Great little sub. Digs very low for how tiny it is. Not a ton of SPL, but reproduces accurately and wonderfully. Got it on a 60% off sale, but at $600 you have much better options like the RSL Speedwoofer. Finish is nice, but not exceptional

Compact design packs plenty of punch. It has the depth to hit the lows but is very tight. I live in an apartment setup, and find that 2 out of 10 is enough bass to provide that extra feeling beyond the speakers. Have it hooked up via wireless transmitter, and still sound quality is great.

My local BB had these on sale for $234 which was an absolute steal. These subs are extremely good for their price. I ended buying 5 of these for various uses. They easily extend to 30hz if used as a pair.

This sub replaced a 10” Martin Logan sub that now lives in my office. I was initially concerned with the smaller size sub. My room is in a townhome so it’s small and I had limited space available. From the moment I turned the system on I was shocked at the bass response. It’s build quality is exactly what I’ve come to expect from B&W. The bass response in my room was nothing short of amazing!! I don’t notice any difference in my listening environment than the 10”. The sound produced from this sub is more than enough to irritate the neighbors. This sub is paired with B&W 600 series front speakers which have great low response themselves but I need just a little more bass to balance the room and this sub is more than adequate. Very satisfied with this sub.

5 star rating is dependent on application. I was supplementing B&W 606 speakers in a medium size room with limited space on a shelf for the sub. Because it is front firing with no ports and rubber feet (with steel spikes as an option) it is well suited for my situation. Sound is great with tight bass that is capable of booming if that is what you like. Setup is straight forward with my only complaint being that the gain or volume setting is much more sensitive in the lower half of the knob range (almost doesn’t change a thing past 50%).

When I got this subwoofer home, I unboxed it and was ready to set it up, but I found that one of the metal inserts on the bottom of the sub had no threads in it, so I could only attach three of the included feet/ spikes. I returned it and Best Buy found a nearby store that had one in stock, so I drove over and picked up a replacement. I guess the robot on the assembly line in China was just having a bad day. Once I got the replacement home and hooked up, I must say that I was very impressed with this little subwoofer. I'm using it with my computer running it through the subwoofer output of a small integrated amp connected via usb mated to a pair of Gallo Acoustics Micro speakers, and I have to say that this is a sweet combination. Granted, I'm listening in the near field, but I'm very satisfied with the bass output and the overall speed and tightness of the bass. I wouldn't hesitate to try one or two of these in a small to medium sized room for a two channel or home theater setup. This is my first experience with a sealed box subwoofer, and I like it a lot. Highly recommended.

The bass reproduction is impressive. The foot print is small. Contributes to the mini IMAX feel of my home theater experience in my small apartment

Great subwoofer for its size, awesome quality with great power.

This subwoofer may seem expensive for the size/wattage, but the build quality, amplifier EQ settings, and sound quality make up for it. I bought 3 for a line-array setup and they sounds musically wonderful. Low end extension is not there, so music only!

Excellent product and matches with my other BW speakers perfectly. Sounds amazing and performance is outstanding.

Great sub for small rooms, my space is about 8'w x 16'd with tile floors and it fills the room at reasonable volumes and can overpower at higher volume. It's also a great size for my small room and doesn't take over space-wise. Recommend!

Paired this with a pair of B&W 606 bookshelf speakers. I was hesitant at first since this model seems to have been in production for 10 years. However, upon buying and installing in my system I understand why it's not been updating in that time, it's perfect. Fast articulate bass that blends nicely with the 606 and gives that last bit of added weight to the sound. Will be happy with this setup for years to come.
