A Perfect Match For the Yamaha Digital Sound Projectors

(5 out of 5) by Wayne Fogel on Nov 13, 2007 (The Villages, FL)
This subwoofer pairs perfectly with the Yamaha YSP-4000BL Digital Sound Projector to provide incredible sound for a home theater. The setup for the YSP-4000 will automatically do the crossover for the subwoofer. Using the enclosed Yamaha link cable, the subwoofer will automatically be turned on and off with the YSP-4000. I can and do strongly recommend this combination for a home theater that not only sounds great buts looks good as well.

Excellent sub for the price!

(5 out of 5) by Jonny on Dec 28, 2007
This little unit rocks. It is low profile, looks great, and fits into a narrow space. Don't plan on stacking components on top of it even though you may be tempted, as the rumbling of the bass can disrupt other components. You can also place this vertically. Like the other reviewer, it is perfect with the ysp-4000 as the sync cable turns it off and on with the main speaker. I think other yamaha components may have this also.

smooth bass

(5 out of 5) by Dale Daughenbaugh on Jan 27, 2009 (Runnells, IA USA)
Don't let the size of this thing fool you. I have 6 in-wall mounted speakers that sounded good but no bass. This thing brought my system to life. I only have it turned up halfway. It also looks good on the floor under my stereo.

an ugly duckling adds the right "quacks" to our system

(4 out of 5) by S. Pinkert on Nov 27, 2009 (Tucson, AZ)
Am not an "audio nut"....I just like good sound out of our system.... so pleae take these words with an appropriate "grain of salt". This Yamaha sub woofer was a snap even for a novice like me to install...and it just fit into the space alloted to it.
The sound it puts out is as promised...very nice bass ....
On the other hand, this unit would not win a "Miss AMerica" contest when it comes to looks and there are many more attractive sub woofers out there to choose from.
However, I didn't buy this one for it's sleek and suave appearance...just for the sound it puts out and the price point to achieve that sound. On that counts, this ugly duckling "quacks" just right.

Good sub woofer for concealing under an end table

(5 out of 5) by P. Leggett on Oct 19, 2009 (Atlanta GA)
Nicely designed to fit under an end table with solid bass and adjustable volume. The black color allows it to be visually concealed, but it is audibly impressive.
