A bit bigger than the previous box I had, but a much better quality product as the auto mode is not linked to the on mode, and it has a small led on the front to indicate if it is on or not. I find it powerful in bass, but I didn't push it too hard either. I recommend it in any case.
Came as a replacement for a Mordaunt Carnival in a 5.2.2.
This cabinet has a range of use and a sound precision quite crazy.
In main and helped by an Earthquake for the Bold (-90hz) the rendering is exceptional.
Coupled with a Denon AVR 2700 I can enjoy a lot of action movies.
All the advertised features are there.
The prerequisite for enjoying them without being annoyed by your neighbours is of course to adjust your amplifier.
Then to adjust the parameters of the subwoofer itself.
Contrary to what I have read, for me, in auto mode, the cabinet goes into standby about 20 minutes after switching off the amplifier and that's good considering the access to the controls on the back of the cabinet.
In the end: you can enjoy it without disturbing the surroundings, by respecting the recommendations (RTFM) you can have fun for not too much money.
This subwoofer does its job admirably; the bass is clean and powerful, without being intrusive.
I use it in hi-fi to complete my compact Eltax Shine 2 speakers which do not go very low in frequency and it supports them very well in the lower part of the sound spectrum.
Moreover, both the finish of the cabinet and the quality of the control panel add to the pleasure of the ears that of the eyes!
I discovered Klipsch speakers a short time ago and I can assure you that this subwoofer is totally doable I have a room of 4 meters by 3 meters square put the sound of not saturated it is clean and even very interesting to listen
