Review 2 of 25

Price Paid:  $370.00 from Etronics

Summary:
This subwoofer really puts out the bass. The bass tracks from DVDs like Jurasic 3 and Pink Floyd the Wall sound incredible. I noticed that some reviewers did not like the knobs, I have no problem with them. I prefer having the controls on the front, it''s easier to adjust levels. The ARS300 is set up in a corner behind my Tosiba 50" tv.

Strengths:
Sound and price. Great value

Weaknesses:
None that I can find

Review 3 of 25

Price Paid:  $350.00 from H.H.Gregg

Summary:
I have no regrets buying this powered sub. I would buy another, but they were discontinued here.I bought it as a floormodel for a cheaper price.

Strengths:
strong,fast-cooling Voice coil (which deliver very precise sound).

Weaknesses:
priced a little too hi.(I Think a good price range is $400-$550)

Review 4 of 25

Price Paid:  $369.00

Summary:
IT'S A GOOD SUBWOOFER

Strengths:
I LOVE MY ARS300 IT HAS A VERY TIGHT BASS FEEL. BETTER THEN THE REALISTIC TAPE PLAYER I HAVE IN MY CAR. I WISH I HAD SOME MONEY SO I COULD BY AN ARS 500.

Weaknesses:
I DON'T LIKE THE WAY THIS SOUNDS DISTORTED AT HIGH VOLUMES, MY SYSTEM IS VERY HIGH END, I HAVE A SOUND DESIGN 100 WATT RECIEVER THAT I BOUGHT AT RADIO SHACK. I'M THINKING OF BUYING A 19 INCH RCA TV TO COMPLETE MY HOME ENTERTAINMENT CENTER. IF MY WIFE LETS ME I WILL BUY A 25 INCH TV

Similar Products Used:
KENWOOD 8 INCH SUB, A SUB I BUILT WITH A 10 INCH RADIO SHACK WOOFER

Review 5 of 25

Price Paid:  $369.00 from accessories4less

Summary:
For the price of this sub there's not much out there to compare with. I'm using pre amp outs with a pioneer receiver. The sub goes quite low and is very cean. I"m using this sub in my bedroom that is quite large (20'x32'). I thought it would be alittle more powerful since it has carvers 300 watt amp. It just cuts it. In my living room I'm useing a M&K V125. The M&K is a much better unit but at 2x the cost the A&R is quite a deal.

Strengths:
price, small footprint

Weaknesses:
nobs and switche's

Best Floorstanding Speakers Under $1000

So many to choose from! Lets us boil it down. How to Choose a Floorstanding Speaker that fits you:

AudioREVIEW's Budget Audiophile Holiday Guide

Give someone the gift of hi-fi. Or make the step yourself. Let us point the way...

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
