It's a 10" sub and has 100watts. I have two of these and I've had zero issues. I use one as my system sub in the bedroom and the other is my rear 7.2 to 1 sub in my family room system

None so far

Compact size, deep base for it's size. Crisp sounding base. Blends in well with my Vizio soundbar in a smaller room. Good for music as movies. RCA cable included

Not the prettiest box out there. Limited adjustments on sub, only allows for volume control

no clue

DOA

Easy to setup. Good quality bass. I especially like the button on the back to turn the bass down at night when the neighbors wouldn't want to hear it ; Nice looking unit and works well

The lowest of the low frequencies aren't quite as responsive as they could be. After testing the unit out normally, I plugged it into an equalizer and pumped up the 30 Hz range to +12 db - this subwoofer SINGS. But you have to have another piece of...

its a well made box, with a decent speaker/amp selection for the price

distorts rather quickly, seems to be about half as loud below 60hz as @60, and its peak frequencies seem to be around 140, so dont expect deep hitting bass for music. this is unfortunately a movie sub which i purchased thinking otherwise. the internal...

Needed a replacement for a Onkyo HTIB sub that died. This sub easily outperforms the original unit. Sound quality is about 90% of the Klipsch sub in the man cave and cost less than a third of the price
