Strength:
Powerful bass response, very tight. Downfiring design is fantastic on hardwood floors
Weakness:
none Excellent sub for the money. Very tight, deep bass. Really shakes the place. Great for a home theater setup. Pretty damn good for music as well. Sounded better with music than I had originally expected. I'd give it an "A" for a rating. |

Strength:
sounds good when it is working
Weakness:
keeps blowing out fuses This sub sounds good for the money but I am very dissappointed in it. I have not had this sub very long and it has already blown out two fuses. I would recommend looking somewhere else for a sub if you are currently shopping for one. I might have got a defective model but i have heard that other people have this problem. If you want to take the risk of having to continously replace fuses just to get the performance of this sub go ahead, but i would not recommend it. That is why i have to give this sub two stars. |

Strength:
Sound,Value,size,easy to add on to any system.
Weakness:
Over 70 htz is starts to sound imperfect,but not a problem unless you have really small satellites ect. The value is unbeatable, its sturdy, goes very low and can get pretty loud. Compared to the other subs I have had and listened too this one never gets boomy, always sounds in control and is enjoyable, not annoying. If you want good sound without going into debt its a great buy, I only wish this would have been my 1st sub ,until it blows up it will be my last.Oh yea, I got for 299.00 Similar Products Used: Jbl,infinity. |

Just got mine in the other day. Wheeee!!! Right now, I have it hooked to my POS Phillips mini-system, but the rest of my new stuff should be here. Soon. Still, it is amazing what this sub will do hooked up to this thing w/ the cheapo Radio Shack cables. Real nice, seems like my little speakers got a HUGE bass boost. (Plus it's the coolest piece of furniture in my room.) Similar Products Used: Boston 10 & 12, Yamaha (almost went w/ the boston.) |

The sound is amazing and I would recommend this system to anybody.
Weakness:
None Found I finally got an upgrade on my stereo system from the junk system I was using. The new system is a killer audio package from www.acousticsounddesign.com. I picked up Klipsch RF-3 Towers, a Klipsch RC-3 center, RS-3 rear surrounds, a new KSW-12 " subwoofer, and a kickin' |

Strength:
Crystal clear, powerful bass
Weakness:
A bit boomy I'm really impressed with the product and feel that you'd have a hard time finding anything better for the price. Fills my living room with deep rich bass for music, and with DVDs, it can shake the entire house. With careful level modulation, you can minimize the boominess which seems fairly common with larger diameter subs. Again, this thing sounds fantastic, especially with my Klipsch Quintet mains and surrounds. Similar Products Used: Test Sony and JBL products |
