Def Tech Does it Again - QUALITY!

This is my first true sub-woofer purchase. Have had subwoofers as part of 5.1 systems, but nothing like this. Def Tech has done it again. The SC 4000 is perfect -- exactly what I was looking for to compliment a pair of fine tower speakers that have excellent midrange and detailed high end, but the low end was lacking a bit due to the narrow construction of the cabinets. At first I was skeptical of the remote -- seemed a bit gimmicky, but it is so wonderful to sit back and be able to make little adjustments on the fly. The sound is pure, tight and true, with lots of adjustments to dial in the desired effect. No ridiculous whompf whompf. I adjusted the settings to a subtle layer of low end needed to finish out my 2-channel music system. Happy to say my quest for the perfect system is now complete and the sound is perfect! (Or at least perfect for my budget). The EQ adjustment is nice. Going from classical to rock-n-roll I did indeed find it useful to switch the EQ level to another setting. Still not sure what EQ is, but it works! The price was great. The cube itself is compact and gorgeous in the piano black. My wife simply can not complain. :-) Everything about it speaks of quality, which is typical of Def Tech. I have owned several speakers and speaker sets from DT and they only know one way -- quality. Thank you Def Tech. Audiophiles like me salute you! Highly recommended.

This is a great piece of engineering. My room size is 32 x 24. If you take the time to setup and calibrate your system you will not be disappointed. Awesome lows and will perform with the best of them.

Great subwoofer for home theater and music systems

Purchased at the end of January 2017, the Super Cube 4000 has completed its break-in period and the bass sounds very tight and deep. I have the unit set at about half volume with the equalizer set to OFF, which sounds the most natural for my tastes. I mostly watch HD movies and TV shows on my Sony 55” KDLHX800 flat screen. I also listen to digital music streamed from my computer and off the internet. Occasionally I watch movies on DVD.
This new unit replaced a ten-year-old ACI Force subwoofer with a 10” driver and a 250Wrms analogue amplifier. The Super Cube 4000, with its 8” active driver, 2x 8” passive resonators and 1200-watt digital amplifier provides more than sufficient controlled bass output for my home theater system. My living room with connected dining area is approximately 15’ x 25’ x 8”. I use a Yamaha RX-A2040 home theater receiver to deliver the LFE signal to the subwoofer and the incorporated YPAO automatic speaker setup program to integrate the subwoofer with my main Magnepan MG-12 planar speakers.
The Super Cube 4000 more than meets my needs, seamlessly blends with my other speakers. It may not provide the thunder clap of a 12” or larger unit, but it does provide very realistic and extended bass at normal listening levels and for those elevated movie soundtracks. Its small footprint also allows it to be placed in the best location without being intrusive. Highly recommended!

loud, low, and pretty are the first words that come to mind when describing this sub. my recommendation is buy this product and keep it in the open to show off. one last thing I think is important. dont let the size fool you. IMO these should be paired with a good set of tower speakers and given room to breath. this is no bedroom sub. if you want to pair with bookshelf or cubes go with the sc 2000. have fun!

Amazing, Excellent, and so much more..

I had a Super Cube 3 and upgraded to this sub, I had to retune my entire theater, (which it was about time to do) and when I was done I wanted to watch all my movies again as I herd sound and things that I had never heard before. I was like this sub brought new life to a sleeping theater. This truly was an amazing upgrade and the remote is great, especially when you want to make an on the fly change to the sound. A+++ Definitive, you did have proven yourselves again, and without breaking my wallet.

Excellent Sub

Couldn't be happier with the performance, features and price. I have a fairly expansive LR, DR and kitchen all under the same vaulted roof. I was worried the SC-4000 might not be able to fill it up, but was pleasantly surprised that it had absolutely no problem with deep, rich, full bass. It'll blend when you want it to, and with the 4 EQ settings, you can overpower the room with full theater sound.
Thanks Definitive for a great, affordable high-end equipment.

simply the best in class

I Just bought an SC4000 sub to replace an old Mirage sub that I have owned since 1993. In terms of output it is equal to any 12inch sub out there. However, the SC4000 shines in bass definition and musicality. I think it is the best subwoofer out on the market at this price point. Also a big thanks to customer support for giving me tremendous insight on setting it up. Furthermore thank you Definitive for send out some new Socks For my 1997 DP10s they look new again! If someone is on the market for a new sub I recommend checking Definitive out!

Garbage

I've had mine for 6 years and it has never worked wirelessly. Gone through 2 of the plug in transmitters and nothing. Gathering dust and not being used. Running wires to my receiver will look awful, that's why I bought this useless thing
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
