Sounds good, but not reliable
I owned this sub-woofer for close to a year and was happy with it, but then the sound started getting louder until after a few months it was impossible to turn the volume of the unit down far enough for it to be usable. At the same time, noise appeared in the audio and I thought I had developed ground loop problems or something like that. Eventually it became unusable, and I never turned it on.

Today, having determined that the unit was way beyond its warranty, I opened it up to see if it was fixable -- it was.

The root cause of the problem was that the washers used to shim the volume control knob were the wrong total thickness. Since the terminals of the resistive element in the potentiometer were soldered into the PCB, this caused stress on the PCB and over time it cracked, the crack propagating through the resistive element. This slowly increased the resistance, so offering a higher resistance in the negative feedback loop of the preamp and increasing the...

Powerful and Clear for Medium-Sized Room
I wondered if this subwoofer would be powerful enough for my 25 x 20 foot room with vaulted ceiling. And, it absolutely is. When the levels are set to high it shakes the entire room with clear, powerful bass.

I did, however, have one initial negative experience when the woofer was inexplicably buzzing. Never having owned a subwoofer before, I just assumed that I hadn't paid enough for a quality subwoofer and that it couldn't handle the power. However, I decided to take the speaker apart to see if there was somthing loose. Sure enough, there was a small wire that was looped onto the speaker that was causing the buzzing. I simply tucked it back away from the speaker and completely fixed the problem. The difference was truly like night and day. Now the speaker is awesome and can handle any power I throw at it.

I suppose this does raise the question of why JBL was sloppy enough to allow the wire to hit the speaker?? Was this a rare thing or something that happens...
Outstanding Subwoofer
I could not be more happy with my purchase of the LBL ES150PBK Subwoofer. The specifications (300 watt, front-firing) speak for themselves, but I am also pleased with the extra long cable included for connecting to my receiver. The design (not square) is pleasing to look at, and the led on the top of the unit to indicate operation is much better than my previous subwoofer that had the same feature, but it was on the back of the unit where you couldn't see it. Overall, an outstanding product for a great price.
