Reviews around auto set (5.00 of 5)

  • Even though I keep it's settings a little subdued, it's very sensitive and the auto setting seems to work better than other subs I've had around this price point.

Reviews around zeros (5.00 of 5)

  • I bought it to go along with my Vanatoo Transparent Zeros (which are lovely, by the way) so I could return my pillaged Yamaha HS10W to my monitoring setup

Reviews around 0.3x gain (5.00 of 5)

  • If you have extra budget and you are listening to music, a more expensive sub might get you slightly more detailed/tight bass - but you're going to end up paying 2-3x the price for a 0.2-0.3x gain in quality.

Reviews around alternative (5.00 of 5)

  • It is a good alternative to the polk psw if space or a 10 inch size is not needed in the under 200 dollar range.

  • Just wanted a modest little sub for bedroom, it could do much more
  • Good basic sub, not bad for music
  • If you have extra budget and you are listening to music, a more expensive sub might get you slightly more detailed/tight bass - but you're going to end up paying 2-3x the price for a 0.2-0.3x gain in quality.
