I bought this sub for $479.99 with a 5 year warranty! I love its low resonantfrequencys. It will reproduce sounds as low as 20hz and has amazing power wattage
It puonds in the rough beats as well as the mastodonic low rumbles that almost can't
even be heard but felt. I recently ran a series of db and spl tests.
@20hz = -3db
@35hz = 15db
@42.5hz = more than enough

(all tests ran @ volume 5.5 and crossover was set at 40hz)

I was looking for a reasonably priced sub to add to my system and was lucky enough to find my KX Sub 2 at $350. Despite it's formidable size, this sub is well worth its floor space! The sub has no problem reproducing very low frequencies for everything from low level music to thunderous movie effects. A great value even at its normal retail price.

I just bought 2 KX-SUB2s from Circuit City @ $399.95 eachon clearance. I'am using them in a home theatre setup using
a Yamaha V992 receiver. They work great!!! You can hear 'em
and feel 'em. Well worth the money. They may not be the greatest
for music (maybe OK for rap), but they are fantastic for the
LFE channel in Dolby Digital surround!

it has to be one of the crappiest sounding subs i have ever heard. all it does is go boom. it sounds horrible, the bass just seems to go everywhere.
it really distorts at even low volumes. if you want a decent sub, look at
the low end velodyne stuff, its about the same price and atleast there stuff
sounds good and there subs produce loud tight bass

When I was looking for a sub in the 400 dollar price range this one was one of the best I heard. I did a side by side comparison to dcm and velodyne 10inch and 8inch sub. It sound way better than the 8in that was the same price 399.99. It also played lower than the 10in that was 599.99 but the 10 was more clean but that goes with out saying . All in all for 400.00 dollars this is a good sub .

Anyone out there have the DCM in-the-wall speakers(W-8R), KX-sub1 subwoofer or the OW-1 surrounds?I recently bought a Yamaha RX-V992 receiver and looking for some speakers for home theater.

I don't know how anyone can call themselves an audiophile and praise this speak at the same time.... If these people really were audiophiles, they would have listened to many other speakers out there, and come to the conclusion that DCM is just mass market junk. It's made to play loud with little power cuz that's what the masses want. But where's the music? And if you check out some other speakers, you'll notice that accuracy was not even considered at DCM.

2 12" long-throw woofers(1 front-firing, 1 down-firing)150 watt internal B&K Components, Ltd. Amplifier
120 maximum SPL
20-130 Hz frequency response
40-120 Hz user-controlled variable crossover

I purchased mine for $449! This is a great sub for that price. It's
definately the loudest subwoofer in the $500 price range. Low distortion at
loud volumes unlike similarly priced subs. Great value. Combined with other
DCM KX-Series components makes an unbeatable value home theater with
incredible sound pressure levels that rival live performances!

Very smooth bass, goes faily deep. Nice looking enclosure for the money

Bottoms out to easy on HT: needs more power

This was my first home sub (I dont consider the bass module in the ams5 (bose) as a sub) and have realy enjoyed it. I personaly like it better runing speaker line in than with the sub in... It bottomed out way to much this way . I now have it in the bedroom (replaced my cT80) and it sounds great. Smaller room helped it out. I dont find the sub boomy in any way personaly..very nice detailed sound. This used to be in my living room..replace sith CT150..of course- no comparison there.
If ya can find it used or almost new..and you dont have a big room...and dont mind tweeking the heck out of it..its a realy good sub...

First of all, this is review for the DCM DC-10 sub which there is no listing for. Great sub for the price, 90watts continous power, 180 max.

None

The DC-10 sub is a great sub for the money. For all you out there thinking you have to pay a fortune for a decent sub, you're wrong! My whole theory on it is: First, Find a sub with a quality AMP and build for cheap, secondly; go down to your local car stereo shop and buy a DECENT sub. Go pop that badboy in your home sub with a little polyfill And your bumpin almost as hard as any velodyne. I personaly put a DB CROSSFIRE sub in my DC-10 with the gain around 10'clock@80Hz. and I still can't bump it hard enough! (Actually I could but I'd blow my other speaks in the process), With that said, the DC-10 is the sh*t for the money. Take my advice with almost any sub you buy and you won't be sorry.
