Review 3 of 24 Summary: I know this sub is cheap. If you just want a way to add cheap bass to your system, then this isn't a bad buy. If you really appreciate a clean sounding sub then please look at some other ones before you go for the cheap one. Currently, I am using a Polk PSW 350 which is leaps and bounds 1)more powerful, 2)cleaner, 3)plays deeper, than this Infinity. I only paid $290 for the Polk. Velodynes are good, but in my opinion, only with movie tracks. THey also get boomy with music and are kinda slow with fast bass. The Bostons are very good, but they are more expensive than I was looking for. When I heard the Infinity I was extremely disappointed. Also, with heavy bass tracks (i.e. rap, R&B, etc.), the Infinity bottoms out much quicker. Now, I am not really educated about the true meaning of the power rating of the Infinity, but I would suspect that it is a peak music power rating. The Polk I have looks modest on paper, at 100 watts, but this is an RMS rating. The peak is 265 watts. Its loud and clean at its peak. Strengths: Definitely its price, and on paper the amplification looks good, pleasing (not outstanding) looks. Weaknesses: Very boomy, not as powerful as the power rating suggests.
