Highly recommend for a stereo setup

Not the gut rolling punsh for a home theater setup.

Very musical...not a great home theater sub. I use this with a pair of Polk Monitor 5's. I don't have it turned up very high and it gives great support to the Polks...makes them sound much more expensive. I also tried this sub with a pair of mission 76i and Kef c25 sounded great with both sets. I really haven't cranked it up so I can't tell you how it sounds really loud.
