Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

I have one with my TV in the sun room. 4 speakers and all the goodies. This makes the system sound so, so much better.
Since I spend so much time in my heated garage, I put a system out there also. Great great sound. Before it was just sound, now it has the bottom end I was looking for.

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

I have a new flat screen TV and, of course, the built-in speakers are too small for good bass. They sounded pretty good for mids and highs, so I decided to start by adding a sub-woofer only. I chose this Sony model and I'm very happy. I have this plugged into the 1/8" audio output of my TV via a $2 adapter [...] This is just what my sound was missing. I get great bass response on music and movies with the speaker volume on about 1.5.I don't need any other external speakers. This was also the best price I found online [...]

Awesome buy for the money. This sub is great for a medium to large size room. Puts out great sound and it is also very easy to set up. I would buy others if I had more than one home theatre system.

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

Hard to criticize because it's such a good value but the grill looks removable but isn't so be careful. Power management is too aggressive because power relay is loud enough to always be heard otherwise it wouldn't matter. Works very well with Vizio VBS200 soundbar. Very nice subwoofer for very low $$

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

This is a great sub for the price. I am using to in my home theater setup with my STR-DH510 Sony receiver. This sub puts out more bass that can handle, so I have it adjusted down.

Sound is fantastic. It really really fills in the bass for general listening and I can feel the rumble during action flicks and PS3 games.

Setup is simple. Very attractive, although it is bigger than I expected. I like that it goes into standby mode when it has nothing to do and it kicks on when it detects bass frequencies.

I am very glad I bought this subwoofer.

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

Very good subwoofer for the money, very powerful and the adjusments make it great for fitting it to the listening area. I was suprised I could feel the power at relitively low volume, the "auto on" feature along with the adjustable crossover make this an affordable way to listen to assume home theater. Another great product from Sony!

This is an excellent Sub for the money, unless you are real high tech and have Vulcan ears, you will not be disappointed with normal or above normal home audi or video sound and has adjusments of much higher priced products.

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

I have had this subwoofer a short time but it has performed very well and was in line with all of the other (good) reviews. This is paired with a Sony 7.1 receiver (also ordered from Abt) using a PS3. Both games and movies sound very good - there is plenty of bass and rumble for a room size which on the smaller size of average (though the sound transmits through out the house so I am not sure a smaller room makes a big difference). For the price this is a great product for the budget minded. Abt had the best price of all the other Sony authorized dealers. I have ordered several products from them and they performed very well.

Bottom Line:

Comments about Sony Sony 10" Powered Black Subwoofer:

I use this sub in conjunction with a Vizio sound bar in my living room. The room is 20 by 15 with a very high ceiling. It fills the room with ease and sounds great with movies and music. Good low end response, and being able to tune the crossover is helpful. There is a little bit of a delay in the auto on function but not worth being concerned about. If you are on a budget like I am, and want good bass response from a relatively small unit, this is the one.
