    This product met my needs very well; an attractive subwoofer from a well known and praised speaker vender for less than [$]...and by the way; it sounds great too! I just needed something to replace my Sony subwoofer, which just stopped working altogether after only about 2 years of service. I guess they just don't expect you to hang on to things longer than that anymore! The only complaint I have is that the power button location; which is on the back of the unit and is a bit difficult to locate.

    Donot expect to hear the thunderous, sharp claps of thunder that you would hear from an excellent Dolby surround system at your theater. To approach it would require an outlay of some hundreds of dollars more than the [$] I spent. However, the deep bass that this Yamaha devlopes is sufficient to compliment the very good main front speakers I have.

        Comments about Yamaha 10" Subwoofer In Black:

        The power off/on switch is in an odd place. If you move it up to the top or just trade places between it and the volume control things would be better, because off and on are usually used far more often than changing the volume on a sub-woofer.

        This subwoofer has good clean sound. It is a very worthwhile addition, and the price is just right, making this an incredible value.

        Comments about Yamaha 10" Subwoofer In Black:

        Two words...."really good"! Added this as a mid-bass subwoofer to my home theater. I have three subs dedicated to frequencies 90hz and below. This speaker sounds really good in the "high cut frequency mode". Fills in the imaging gap between 100hz - 200hz that book shelf speakers can't consistently reproduce. With no phasing option, had to tweek the crossover on a/v a bit but well worth it. Yamaha keep up the good work!

        Comments about Yamaha 10" Subwoofer In Black:

        I use several subs in my home theater system. One of them recently failed, so I went shopping. After looking at several brands, I concluded that the Yamaha offered the best performance for the best price. I already owned two Yamaha subs, and had found that they "punch above their weight" as far as performance is concerned. The only criticism that I have of this unit is that it does not have a stand-by mode, so that I have to switch it on and off whenever I use it, which is not a big issue.

          Comments about Yamaha 10" Subwoofer In Black:

          I wanted to add bass to my basement system, a nice sounding low-powered Sherwood receiver with Mirage towers, which just didn't kick the lows while sitting on the concrete floor. This sub did the trick, at a low cost, and with clean, tight bass.

          Very impressed with the sound. I can easily tailor it to any style of music I want to listen to, though it doesn't need much fussing with. I listen to all types of music, from classical to dub step and this sub handles it all with aplomb.

          You can't get much better bass with this size driver than the Yamaha delivers. I'm going to get another one so I can run one on each channel. I'd recommend it for just about anyone.

            I attached the 216 sub to my Yamaha sound bar to round out the sound in a very large listening space. It doesn't take much volume to balance out the sound for a true cinema experience.

              You have to spend some time to adjust the settings with the subwoofer. The thing will blast you out of the room at max. Once adjusted(which takes some time) you get a GREAT sounding system.

                entertainment system(s). I have full surround 5.1 set up and it absolutely blows me away with the sound quality, the bass response, the surround effects and over all performance. Easy to integrate with all other components and sounds amazing! Thanks so much for a great product....
