Sound is NUTS! By: Dan
This thing bangs! Only complaint is that when you turn it up the force of the sub's air pressure can force the speaker cover off! LOL. Good problem to have, me thinks.

Great sound.
Great sounding powered subwoofer, what deep bass. By: Jeff
Love its construction and sound is awesome. I bought this powered subwoofer to replace one that wore out, a different brand. This is so much better made, the raw speaker is strongly made.

You got to love Acoustic Audio By: ADIL HAMED
I added this sub to my 5.1.2 surround system and with only halfway volume, my room was rumbling with base. I love my movie night at home now instead of going to movie theater. Thank you very much Acoustic Audio.
Good compact subwoofer! By: john
Good compact subwoofer for small apartment.
This thing rocks By: lee
Mother of god, I went from no bass at all in my speaker setup to installing this thing and realizing that I have been missing the "BASS" for far too long. Enjoy!
Really great subwoofer for the money By: Susan W.
I've had this subwoofer connected for about 10 months now. It's plenty powerful, its sound is sharp and clear, and it's a great addition to my home stereo theater.
Great compact sub for small spaces! By: Ryan Morrissey
I am likely in a very small subset of music lovers to utilize this powered sub under my kitchen sink, in the cabinet, to round out my in-ceiling speakers (monoprice). This, the 8â model, and the 6â model also, were 2 of perhaps 4 subwoofers I was able to find that would be able to fit in the confined space. The Acoustic Audio fit my needs with pass-through speaker line option that powers off the sub when not in use, which is important so I am not required to have to crawl under the sink to power it on and off. Iâm very impressed with the low frequencies this thing puts out. It puts out more than enough volume for my needs in the kitchen and was easy to tweak itâs settings to play nice with my in-ceiling speakers. Itâs great that it is down firing because it keeps the actual speaker more protected from accidental damage from all the odds and ends and cleaners etc, under the cabinet. Furthermore I personally canât even hear a difference when the cabinet doors are opened or closed (which is what I was hoping). Materials seem spot on and the unit is nicely put together and solid. I wouldnât use the 8â for my home theater surround sound (though I would definitely consider checking out this companyâs larger offerings), but for my application, this model is a resounding winner! My kitchen rocks out with authority! :)
Do not hesitate, this is a fantastic sub for the price By: Amazon Customer
This sub is fantastic for the money, absolutely surpasses most every other sub I have heard for anywhere near the money. Admittedly no bells and whistles as far as equalizer, piano finish, or remote... but come on for this price, I am blown away by the low frequencies.I only wish I could have shipped the 15", but I live overseas and could only get the 12" delivered with prime. Don't worry it is a 120v/60hz powered unit, I use a transformer for it at my location.
Impressive for small subwoofer By: ScooterK
Very impressed on the bass delivery of this small subwoofer
Good buy By: Bob Terry
Good value. Hooked it up to Panasonic home theater sound system and it gives out a great background base sound.
