Good sub woofer for concealing under an end table

Nicely designed to fit under an end table with solid bass and adjustable volume. The black color allows it to be visually concealed, but it is audibly impressive.

an ugly duckling adds the right "quacks" to our system

Am not an "audio nut"....I just like good sound out of our system.... so pleae take these words with an appropriate "grain of salt". This Yamaha sub woofer was a snap even for a novice like me to install...and it just fit into the space alloted to it.
The sound it puts out is as promised...very nice bass ....
On the other hand, this unit would not win a "Miss AMerica" contest when it comes to looks and there are many more attractive sub woofers out there to choose from.
However, I didn't buy this one for it's sleek and suave appearance...just for the sound it puts out and the price point to achieve that sound. On that counts, this ugly duckling "quacks" just right.

Wiring limitations

The unit is provided with only single wire connections, which works okay in an A/V application, but if you're intending to use it with a stereo receiver (that has left and right output connections), you'll need to go to an electronics store to buy a "Y" adapter because the unit doesn't ship with one.

Compliment your stereo!

I have a yamaha reciever and bought this because the bookshelf bose weren't cutting it. This sub definately makes a difference. The only complaint I have is that the additional cable to signal power off does not work with my stereo. You'd think yamaha would be compatible with yamaha...not always true. Not a big deal, but keeps me from giving it 5 stars. I would not buy the lower wattage sub-woofer as I usually have this one maxed out. This could be due to the fact that it is on a shelf and not on the floor. Overall this sounds great and completely changes the way I listen to music and entertainment. I do not have surround, 2.1 only.

subwoofer

Purchased this subwoofer to supplement the Dell soundbar attached to my computer monitor. Works exactly as I had hoped and, because of it's low height, fits nicely out of the way under my computer desk. Delivery from Amazon was on time and the item was in perfect shape.
