  • This is an 8" powered subwoofer capable of producing 60 watts (RMS) output. The subwoofer has a frequency response range of 50 to 250 Hz with a lowpass crossover filter, which can be adjusted from 50 to 150 Hz. Gain and frequency knobs on the control panel allow you to adjust the crossover filter and the power output for the optimum blend and balance of bass output with your stereo or surround speakers.Waterproof : No
  • The subwoofer has multiple input options, which allow it to be used with any existing stereo or 5.1 (or greater) amplifier system. For each input there is a corresponding output.
  • High-level inputs accept a full-range signal from the amplifier's stereo speaker outputs. When connecting the unit as part of a 5.1 system, these would be taken off the Front Left and Front Right outputs in parallel to the standard pair of front speakers. The subwoofer provides its own power and includes impedance matching circuitry, so this will not reduce the power output to the front speakers or affect the overall impedance load on the amplifier.
  • Additionally, the subwoofer has a set of right/left Line Level inputs. If using a standard stereo system, without a special subwoofer output, you can connect these to the left and right line level outputs on the amp. The subwoofer will then combine the signals to process the mono bass signal it needs to drive the speaker. If you are using an amplifier with a single mono subwoofer line level output, simply use an RCA "Y" cable to split the output and send it to the two line level inputs on the subwoofer.
  • The subwoofer is housed in an attractive black wood cabinet that measures 13.75" x 11.75" x 11.75" (H x W x D). The driver and a 2 3/4" sound port are located on the front, covered by a black cloth speaker grill.

    • Well worth the cost, made a huge improvement to my little bedroom stereo
Style: Subwoofer
I own two other subs -- a nice Sony for my living room theater system, and a big Klipsch sub on my "virtual pipe organ" setup. No, this little unit isn't directly comparable to either, but it does what it does surprisingly well. I didn't buy it to shake the walls, the way my Klipsch can when I play the organ, but to add some missing heft to the music I play at bedtime for relaxation. In the bedroom, I have a small Pyle amp with Bluetooth built in, connected to a pair of rather dinky little "satellite" speakers, each one having a 4" driver and a tiny dome tweeter in a metal cabinet. They sound decent but certainly don't put out any punch whatsoever. At night I use the YouTube Music app to play quiet sedate classical or New Age Music, or very calm pipe organ music before I go to sleep. Using only the two little satellite speakers, the music is ok but not all that satisfying, lacking lower midrange and bass tones that I know are in the music (I hear them when I play the same music on my living room system). Using the supplied stereo RCA patch cable, I simply connected the "recording out" jacks of my Pyle amp to the input jacks of the sub and fired everything up. I cracked open the sub's volume control, and instantly began to hear the lovely deep tones that had been missing from my music. Not wanting to keep the neighbors up at night, I've left the sub volume quite low. I turned up the frequency knob to the point where it seems that the sub takes over the bass about where the small speakers lose it. So I'm more than happy with this purchase. It cost a fraction of what I paid for my other two subs, and while it wouldn't be adequate for the virtual pipe organ, and perhaps only barely adequate for the living room theater, it is all I need for my little bedroom music system. So I can't say that this little unit will be enough sub for everybody in every situation. It certainly isn't made to shake the walls in a big room, or even in a modest theater setup. It probably wouldn't last very long if you tried to make it do what only a larger sub can do. But for supplementing some smallish speakers in a bedroom or office system, or a desktop audio setup, it ought to be just right. It was packaged beautifully and securely, was delivered exactly on time, and everything I needed was in the box. Good product. ... show more

    • Great for anyone needing a little more oomph
Style: Subwoofer
I currently have this connected to a pair Audioengine A2+, which is connected to a cheap FiiO DAC, connected to my PC. This sub has gone as low as $30 a few years ago due to some crazy deals, it was a great steal then, and still is for $100. The sub is $100 and comparing it to something like the SB-1000, a $200 PreSonus or $300 Kanto sub isn't fair, which I see a lot of people online do. It's a 60w sub with an advertised range of 50 to 250 Hz, but I'd be surprised if it really hits the 50 Hz mark. 99% of people will not notice, and the people who will, won't bother with a $100 sub anyway. This is for people who need a bit more low end and aren't crazy audiophiles. My office is an 8x9 room, where it has more than enough power to fill the room, and I have mine placed in an Ikea Alex Drawer for space savings. At first it sounded horrible, bass was very pronounced, the thumps felt out of sync and too high, to the point I was ready to return it after an hour. I gave it a bit more time and continued messing with the LPF and sub volume, then messed with the EQ using Equalizer APO/Peace. Now it blends with my speakers pretty seamlessly, and gave them that extra low end oomph they needed. I did also test my setup against some Kanto ORAs and iLoud Micro Monitors, since those are other highly regarded smaller speakers. There is no question that both of those speakers are better than the A2+, and are worth spending the extra money on if you were in the market for new speakers. But if you were in my situation where you already owned something like the A2+, getting this sub might elevate them enough where you don't need to buy better speakers. ... show more

    • For bass that rounds out the sound ... not shakes the walls. Good for small systems.
Style: Subwoofer
I have a Monoprice Pure Tube Amplifier ... which I run through Klipsch bookshelf speakers. The idea of my system is not to shake the walls, or let the neighbors know what I am listening to. I wanted the warmest/highest quality sound, so I could play some vinyl on my Fluance turntable. While I cannot personally afford to be an audiophile, I'd like equipment which at least compliments my growing record collection in a way that stays true to the warmth and crispness of the medium. One issue with the amplifier is that it runs only 10W per channel ... which equates to about 50W. Most subwoofers these days run 100 - 300W ... so finding something in the 50 - 60 W range was tough. If you run a higher Watt subwoofer, it won't damage the system, but it's a waste of money, so this was the perfect amount for my small tube amplifier. Klipsch speakers tend to a be a little on the bright side, which can get grating. I wanted a subwoofer to give me just a small punch of bass to round out the sound and this did exactly that ... no more/no less. At first, I was suspicious that this was even working. I didn't feel any rattle on the shelves or vibrations on the floor. However, after turning it on and off while the song was playing, it became apparent that this was working and rounding out the sound nicely with some much needed lows. If you are looking for something to really 'punch' you ... the way some subwoofers do ... this is not it. If you have a smaller system with limitations on the number of Watts, it's adequate for your needs. While I do wish it gave a little more punch, it does what it is supposed to and I am not surprised in either direction as to its performance. The louder your system plays, the more bass will come out of this. As my amp isn't really designed to be played loud ... and I don't use my system's volume knob much past the 5 o'clock position, even tweaking the actual output knob on the subwoofer won't make my living room sound like a Dolby theater. This was a bit larger/heavier than I thought it would be, given its 60W performance. I own an Altec Lansing speaker set, which includes 2 small speakers and a subwoofer and that subwoofer is about 1/4 the size of this one and packs the same amount of punch. I'd prefer a Klipsch subwoofer, but given the small output of my amp, the added cost (3x what this costs) wasn't worth it to me. Where I really notice this from a sound perspective is classical music, especially with a cello. On rock and roll music, such as The Rolling Stones ... or on pop music, like The Weeknd, the lows it produces kind of blend into the music and aren't extremely perceptible unless you turn it off and on. Once you do, you'll appreciate having this. Most true audiophiles aren't fans of bass ... which is why the best speakers are on the bright/crisp side. For vocals and guitar solos, bass usually gets in the way and takes away from those parts of the song. If you are a rap music, pop, R&B fan who wants to dance along to the music, you'll likely want a subwoofer which is a bit more dynamic and less crisp. Pricewise, like the size, I think it's a little more than it should be. Given its limitations, I'd expect this to be more in the $50 - $80 range. However, there aren't many decent subwoofers out there lower than 100W, so I guess the north of $100 price speaks more to the novelty. I have owned many Monoprice products. While they in no way would ever compete with a Klipsch or B&W speaker/system, for a budget price, they perform better than generic/unbranded sound equipment. While their claims of being 'equal to' some of the bigger names in audio equipment is not really accurate, they'll give you a decent piece of equipment at a low price. Overall, I can't really sing this thing's praises too highly because it is truly not amazing ... or a difference maker. It rounds out the sound good enough to be better than nothing ... but it's not going to give you that 'floaty' euphoric feeling which true audiophile equipment might. If you have a low Watt amp, or are working in an office, or live in an apartment where you have to be conscious about the volume level, it might be just what you are looking for. If you are searching for a thumping subwoofer, it is probably not what you are searching for. I hope my honest review, after having used the product, was helpful to you. ... show more
