I bought this sub, after I found out I needed a powered sub for my Sony recevier. This is my first actual home theater system and this sub completed it! It's a great buy if you mostly watch movies or play games. I haven't played music through it yet, but it should work just fine. The sub, recevier and my 42" plasma will eventually go to my room when I get a house and get my DLP, but for now it's fantastic!

Very easy to connect even if your receiver has no dedicated subwoofer connection. Excellent sound and easy to adjust.






easy to connect even

If you don't live in a castle and just want to fill in the "lows" of your existing speakers the 100Watt SA-W2500 fits the bill for less than $100. Hookups are for any type of amp/receiver and will definitely bring out the bass sound you've been missing. A great deal thru Amazon.

I bought this sub to compliment by bookshelf speakers on my computer. For music I thought the bass sounded a little lose and muddy so I stuffed an old T-shirt in the bass reflex port to see if that would help (since ported woofers are often somewhat under-damped). It did make a significant improvement in the transient response. Sharp bass sounds such as from a bass drum or string bass sound much tighter and more realistic. This mod may reduce the maximum bass output somewhat but I was more interested in good musical sound rather than maximum loudness.

This sub was a very nice addition to my system. I am very happy with the purchase I made. The only concern I have is that the sub cable it came with was pretty junky and flimsy. I didn't think it let the sub reach its full potential so I purchased a Belkin PureAV AV20500-15 15-Foot Subwoofer Audio Cable and now it sounds fantastic!
