After much re-positioning in my room, I've come to a fantastic conclusion: THIS THING ROCKS!! VERY satisfying looow deep bass. Highly recommended for the low price. It is used in my system with Cambridge Soundworks Tower II's, and an Onkyo 100 per ch. receiver. You will not go wrong with this sub for the price (I paid 199. at a local "discount" mega-store).

I too bought this sub from NetMarket.com. The order form gives you the option of the BU2, which has a 100 watt amp instead of the BU120's 150 watt digital amp. I ordered the BU2, which was priced at $20 less, and received the BU120. Total price: $236 w/ shipping & tax. GET IN ON THIS DEAL BEFORE NETMARKET REALIZES THEIR MISTAKE. This bad boy lists for $599! As far as performance, I'm blown away. The bass is tight, controlled, and DEEP. It matches perfectly with my Klipsch 1.5's, and with the range of adjustment it gives you, it should match perfectly with any system. It has far more power than I will ever need--as I live in an apartment building, I haven't even dared to crank it more than 50% for more than ten seconds. I'm afraid it'll shake the damn building off the foundation. And to think I was going to spend the same amount on a crappy Kenwood with a 10" driver and only 100 watts (probably peak).
I would give this sub four stars IF I paid $400. But I didn't, so it gets a full five.

It's a good sub. I paid for 220 at net market. Good buy !!!

Bought from Netmarket for under $200. Excellent bass response. Definitely helps out the 2000.4 front speakers, which lacks a solid bass punch. The best bang for the buck in my opinion. Highly recommended.

Just got my BU120 from One Call. Two day delivery.Excellent performance, solid Bass . No distortion. Iam very pleased. I would recomend this unit, definetly the most bang for the buck.

smooth rolling bass

none

Look people
you get what you pay for buy something you can controll this sub with and you will be happy.
I run a fosgate model 3a (sub controll right on the front)
dial it in right and you should have no hum (70 decibals around the room)

Sound Quality

Bought this at the Harman Outlet Store. I did not notice the humming others had mentioned - pretty quiet. But the sound quality was not up to par. First noticed boominess and actually got headaches listening to HomeTheater. I got a PB12 and played them side by side. PB12 definitely tighter - not as boomy. Recommend you pass on this model - plus the outlet store has tons of these - must be because of returns / failures.

CHEAP

As every one should be aware this product should have been recalled

Ok I do Custom install and I had a friend who wanted an inespensive sub. I could at one time get these pretty cheap, But have never sold one.
We looked up the reviews here and said what the hay. This was before all of them started popping!(note to self, Only trust reviewers who are not stoked on there product because they got it cheap or that it is brand new to them!)
Any how for the last year and a half he had been complaining of the 60Hz Hum. I thought it was mearly a ground referance problem and left it at that. well myu buddy finally brought it in and we took it apart. there is close to 300mv ripple on one side of the output to the sub.
100Ohm resistors have 37VDc across them and they are fried. Caps have not been tested but like all the ones below we have no recoarse. Buyer beware of this product!!!!!

Low cost, relatively good quality guts, DD and DTS impact.

hum, but really not that annoying.

Bought for $143 delivered from Mercata, after $50 sign-up credit. They offer this pretty regularly. This is hooked up to a Yamaha 1105 and plays with large Boston Acoustics speakers, which have good bass to start with.

Since my placement options are limited I found the best configuration was to stuff the two ports tightly with towels, turn the crossover dial to the lowest setting, and turn the volume almost all the way down. Otherwise the air movement from the ports seemed to cancel the woofers in my main speakers, muddying up the bass a good bit. Obviously I'm just looking for some clean bass extension, not to rattle my neighbor's windows.

I've been quite pleased with this sub. Mine has that hum that others describe, but it's only noticeable if the house is totally quiet. Music sounds good with it. Sarah McClachlan's "Angel", which has tremendous amounts of bass, is wonderful--clean and not overpowering at all. DVD's are even better. The approaching tank scene at the end of Saving Private Ryan is awesome. You can certainly feel the bass under your feet.

Highly recommended, especially for the price.

Good movie bass, ok for music

NO on/off switch. humming

This is an amended review of my original 5 star review. The sub still sounds great, but the lack of an on/off switch and the low buzzing/humming is gettin on my nerves. Not the noise itself, but it makes me think that it will wear out and die from that humming.

It's good sounding, but really, this is a cheap sub. But for $140 its still a good value.
