Great woofer for HT

Great starter woofer for just about any HT set up. I would have gone with 5 stars if there was a way to adjust the volume of the woofer wirelessly, but alas there is not. Nonetheless the sound quality and depth that comes out of this woofer is great! I have our DT (dorm theater) set up as 3.1 channels using a Sony DT850 and all 8 of us enjoy movie night and binge nights even more. Great price for what you get! (I favor Yamaha products over others just an FYI)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Color?

I have a question regarding the color of this item... It states "silver" in
the description, but the picture alongside shows a black speaker. Is this
item black or silver?
When I got mine it was black. This is something that needs to be corrected by BestBuy. I personally wanted a black one so I was pleased to get one.

is this an auto ON/OFF subwoofer

No it is not. However, I do believe there is a sleep like mode as when it is not active for a while it takes a second for the sub sound to kick back in.

Is this subwoofer equipped with a built-in amplifier?

Yes. One must plug the woofer in to a power outlet and the sub out of a stereo/amp/receiver.

subwoofer for subwoofered sound bar

I have a Yamaha sound bar with sub woofer, but I would like add more bass. Is it possible to connect this sub woofer to my Yamaha sound bar?

John
That depends if your soundbar has a sub out or not. Without knowing the model of bar you have I can say yes or no. Another option could be if your TV has a sub out, which is rare.
