TheaterPoint. There is a Difference.
Elan Home Systems THP1200SW Black Subwoofer
Hitting the Sweet Spot.

ELAN has been delivering the highest quality sound experience throughout the home for over 17 years. We’ve historically embraced a purposeful design obsession with audio. From a whole new benchmark in high-performance digital amplifiers to our acclaimed M Series architectural speakers, we’ve consistently released exceptionally innovative design, leading-edge features, and quality for the price.

With the TheaterPoint Speaker line, our eye is firmly focused on steering the awesome ELAN audio directly into the sweet spot within the home – the home theater.

When we took on TheaterPoint, we had a pointed goal – to be uncompromising in our production of superior home theater speakers, and to provide explosive sound and the right assortment of speakers to meet the needs of every home theater. We also set out to hit the best price point in the business, filling a clear value gap in the market.

It began with a thorough assessment of every major brand and what was missing. Then we ventured to our labs for listening, evaluating, comparing and carefully defining a radically new kind of home theater speaker that set the bar higher. The result is an incredibly realistic, dynamic sound that will shatter any preconceived ideas of home theater audio.

Unlike many companies today that source parts, or even the speakers themselves from other manufacturers, our TheaterPoint (THP) line has been meticulously designed from the ground up, with no off-the-shelf parts, and therefore no compromise on performance.
  • 300 Watt Class D amplifier
  • Auto-on signal sensing
  • Tuned 30Hz high-pass filter

Good sub
By NPOGuy Verified Buyer from North Carolina on 4/26/2010
Pros:
Attractive Design
Cons:
Heavy / Bulky
Best Uses:
Home Theater
Describe Yourself:
Movie Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Arrived perfectly packaged. It's very heavy, so with the spikes and a hardwood floor, moving it around is difficult. I had considerable difficulty getting it to work with my Yammy rx-v2700 system. It would not recognize the signal. I'm still not sure what happened, but I fired everything up one day and it suddenly worked with no problems since then. I also had a problem with a loud buzz, but, after a quick internet search, I quickly took care of that with a two-prong plug adapter. Since it magically came to life, the bass has been great and even woke my daughter up a few times upstairs. The high gloss finish looks great, but probably not for everyone. Overall, it was a great buy.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Perfect for music lovers. Not great for really deep bass...Get a Ported sub if you want that. I wanted accuracy and i got it with this sub. I was unimpressed with the power when i first got the sub but after some use the sub breaks in and starts to sound amazing. Phase control is normally something for high end audio..it was a pleasant surprise.

It doesn't automatically shut off as I had expected it would when the home theater system system is turned off. Manual, or not... it's still a great subwoofer!

For the rated frequency response.
By Jimbo from Dover, NJ on 8/27/2009
Pros:
Easy To Connect
Cons:
Not Very Powerful
Best Uses:
Home Theater
Describe Yourself:
Tech Savvy, Professional, Movie Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I use this sub-woofer for my home entertainment system. The sub was easy to connect, pretty fool proof there. For the rated frequency response the bass was kinda weak for a self powered sub-woofer.
