Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $217.00 from Crazzy Eddies

Summary:
Great addition to complete a home theatre system. Really generates a low bass that makes the walls vibrate during explosion scenes. Comes with multiple adjustments for the type of base and a switch to focus the sound either through the forward firing speaker or down firing speaker.

Strengths:
Great deep bass. Autoswitch that will keep the power off until the reciever sends a bass signal to the speaker. The sound turns on instantly when it's needed.

Weaknesses:
A little large. I couldn't really comprehend the size by looking at the specs but once I got it, WOW. It's not really a speaker that can be hidden behind a sofa. I have mine in a corner behind a plant in attempt to hide it a little.
