This is a sleeper, if you find one, BUY IT! Chances are it'll be cheap as heck because the name Yamaha isn't normally associated with competitive subwoofers. I bought mine on craigslist for $50. I almost apologized to the guy as I was carrying it out. I had watched the ad go from $120 all the way down to $50 and I finally couldn't take it anymore. It replaced a velodyne sub in the home theater room and I haven't regretted it.

I can't gush about it enough: It produces incredible bass all the way down to 20hz. This coming from a 10" sub and small enclosure. It's remote control which comes in handy for the "late night, trying not to piss off the neighbors" movies. Not a hint of boomy-ness, only clean, foundation rattling bass.

I haven't tried it for music as my 2 channel system already has an amazing sub (the yamaha is a little plain looking. Not a strike against it, just not as pretty as the Onix that sits downstairs), but I imagine it would excel at 2 channel as well.

I'm not a "Yamaha" guy, I've got much better taste than that BUT.........this thing pretty much rules for the price paid. Heck I'd still be raving even if I'd picked it up for $300 used.

deep strong bass with lots of power, remote with preprogramed settings. on remote volume, cutoff and phasing with an on off setting

expensive

great sub with both high and low level inputs. 3 programable settings whith is very useful for different types of music. I listen to rock differently from a DVD to classical. lots of power and deep response. I use it with both my allisons and my surround system which is not a challenge for it since the room is medium sized.

the remote also allows for effect on/off, phasing and adjustable volume and frequency cutoff.

great sub and the extra features are great
