Great Value; solid output
Matched currently with a new Yamaha 444 center & 555 tower 3.1 system. I've used impressive 8" & 12" passive/active subs by B&W & Velodyne over the past 20 years. I purchased this Yamaha because my wife didn't want an "ugly box" on the floor with a previous "hide the cables & boxes" basement in-wall 5.1 system. This sub actually fits and works well on the TV stand lowest shelf.
My verdict: Simply amazing for the size & price. Very tunable and attenuation controls very effective. It works/balances great with the new all-Yamaha speaker system purchased when we moved. Highly recommend Dependable Resources, too. Honestly, you will be surprised by the range, output & accuracy of this concise unit. I do not agree that it is boomy at all; it is so easy to balance this sub. I can say this because it's been used in a a variety of rooms and systems, and it always adjusts to an appropriate output. It's not chest pounding like a top 10 or 12, but quite ample for most situations.

OK if space is limited but very boomy.
I bought this to enhance the sound of my ceiling speakers. I wanted something small that would fit under a table or love seat so my choices were limited. It's just OK. It cranks out a lot of high, boomy bass but doesn't sound very natural. I have it hooked up to the subwoofer output of a Yamaha CRX-330BL CD Receiver. Unfortunately, neither the receiver nor the sub have a crossover setting. I think that would make all the difference in the world. On certain songs that have low bass notes, the sub seems to reproduce those notes pretty well. The problem is it has a peak at around the 100-200Hz range that makes everything sound boomy.
Another complaint is the sub does not seem to turn off when no audio is fed to it. There is a control cord that came with it but no where to plug it into the receiver. Every other sub I own turns on when a signal is applied and turns off after a few minutes if no signal is detected. This is a poor design.
I plan to open the...
Extending the depth of listening sensation
The good: I enjoy the sound quality of this subwoofer. I use it to listen to classical music as a bookshelf speaker with my Logitech internet radio.
The bad:
1. For the sound it only has an RCA input. Needed an additional adaptor cable to convert the 3.5mm output from the radio.
2. The power on/off is manual. When I set my radio to sleep, the subwoofer stays on all night. The system on/off works only with Yamaha sound device.
