Very, Very Nice Sub

Now this is what a Sub should sound like. Very rich and deep. I have it connected via Monster Sub cable to LFE from my Pioneer Elite SC-05 receiver. MCACC calibration set this a little too low for my taste. I adjusted accordingly and now have it dialed in. It is simply fantastic. This sub plays music very well. It picks up all the subtle nuances. Pandora Radio sounds just great with my B and amp;W M1 speakers and this Sub. It complements my system perfectly. HT is where it is at for me. This thing will ROCK your house. Explosions literally shake my walls and floor. It never misses a beat. This is why you want a 12" Sub. Polk does it again. Another fine product. By this before they are all gone as it is a discontinued item.[...]

Great Bass Impact, Great Price

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have the subwoofer used in a 12 x 20 room as part of 7.1 setup. This is complimented by Polk Audio in wall RC series speakers and Yamaha rxv663 receiver. Playing music from the tuner was remarkable....clear and crisp. In playing a few movies you get the true experience when movies are digitally enhanced for theater experience( e.g Star Wars, Ice Age, etc) Bottom line is this is a great sub at a great price.

The Black Box of Boom!
By Nick Verified Buyer from Minnesota on 5/12/2009
Pros:
Crisp Sound, Great Sound Quality, Attractive Design, Powerful
Best Uses:
Home Theater
Describe Yourself:
Audiophile
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I use this sub in a basic 5.1 HD Sound setup. Have a Onkyo receiver and all Polk Audio Monitor Series to compliment this beast. I'm in a basic size living room for an apartment, and it rocks this portion of the building if I want it to. And I know this would be more than accommodating to a large home theater room. The only con, that actually isn't really a con, is that this baby ways a ton. But that's cool with me.
