Strength:
Integration into my 2 channel system is seemless. For home theater, it has enough slam and shock-value to scare my neighbors on the opposite side of my culdisack.
Weakness:
After break-in, I have found no weaknesses. Correction: This sub is definately worthy of a 5 out of 5 rating. It just has a long break-in time. After owning it for a year and a half. I have found it to be a perfect match for my Hales Rev. Three speakers. There are two reasons why I thought it was slow: 1. The sub had not been broken in completely. 2. Room placement. I had the sub placed in a bass null. Once I placed it at a non-divisible distense of 1/3 X 2/3 from the front and side walls, the speed and tone improved to such a degree that I was embarassed to have rated it 4 out of 5. Not only does this sub integrate aurally, it is absolutely beautiful to have in my living room. I highly recommend it! Similar Products Used: Sunfire, Paradigm Servo 15, and in the past year I have listenned to Klipsch, B&W, and Theil. |

Strength:
Volume for size, Appearance, Crossover options, Warranty, Depth at all volumes, Perfect for Theatre
Weakness:
Slightly slow response on fast music This is a very well made and powerful sub. I use it at all times for music and theatre. Its crossover allows it to blend easily with my Hales Rev. Three speakers. The only problem is that the Hales speakers have a faster bass response than the sub. This is only evident when I play music that has a fast and constant bass drum beat (ie pop music and some heavy rock). I recently plugged the two ports to try to speed up the response. The result was faster, more defined bass. For sheer volume in movies, I let the ports remain open. This sub is very beautiful to look at; chicks dig the elegant confidence that it conveys.
