Purchased for use in my private Mac based home studio, so I could hear the deep end of my recordings. I am using it along with my M Audio studio monitors. Technically speaking they may not be considered a proper match (the Yamaha is a bit over kill), but I am hoping to add more powerful monitors in the future.
The Yamaha has a very good looking design (looks great with my M Audio monitors), the controls are on the front (something that I wanted) and performs just as expected. Blown Away ! 5 Stars

This product didn't exactly blow my socks off, but it adds a nice deep sound to my music and movies. I picked this unit because of its relaively thin size. I have a small space between my entertainment cabinet and the wall that it just slips into perfectly, so I don't have to put it on top of the cabinet. If you are looking for theatre quality booming sound, this might not be for you. But if you need a slim, low priced unit to complement your lower end system, this should work out well for you.


3 out of 5 stars OK if space is limited but very boomy.   July 22, 2010

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 box to see if there is anything I can do to improve the sound. Perhaps some acoustic foam or fiberfill in the cabinet may reduce the boominess, if it doesn't already have some. If that doesn't work, I'll try some modifications to the circuit to see if I can lower the crossover frequency. I'll report back with my results.

If size is not an issue, there are much better subs out there for just a bit more money. They Sony SA-W3000 is far superior to this sub and only costs $30 more. If your budget (and floor space) is bigger, you have many subs to choose from. My favorite is still my 15" Velodyne. I haven't found anything else even comes close. Of course when it comes to subwoofers, size does matter!

Update: I decided it was not worth my time to mess with this because the sound quality was poor. I returned it to Amazon.



5 out of 5 stars Awesome sound - great value   June 26, 2010

I recently received a Vizio Sound Bar for Fathers Day to replace my very old surround system (which by the way I also highly recommend). I wanted to get a new sub that I could place in my media component tower so I viewed and researched many of the low profile subs available. After careful consideration, I decided on a Yamaha. I have used their components in the past and have always had great results with them.

I checked many different electronics websites and as usual, Amazon had the best price. I ordered this sub along with a UltraLink Matrix 2 interlink cable (see my review on that product page) at 3:30pm est on Friday, chose the one day shipping and had both products in my house by noon on Saturday!

I immediately hooked up the sub and the sound was AWESOME! I threw on my BluRay copy of Pirates of the Caribbean At Worlds End and sat back. The bass tones blew me away! For the price of this sub, compared to many others of this style, you can't go wrong! If you're in need of a sub and don't feel like spending a weeks pay on it - Get This Sub!

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.
