Enjoy robust low-frequency audio with this Yamaha YST-SW216 100W powered subwoofer, which features a 10" multirange, long-stroke-cone driver for high-quality sound and Advanced YST II (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) for optimal performance.

Buy something better if you can afford it.

I bought this sub because I was trying to save some cash and I was already going over my budget with my new 46" LCD and other home theater components. I have known Yamaha to be a good brand in the past, so I figured I would give it a try......but you get what you pay for. This sub really struggles with the lower, deeper bass, which is really what I was wanting for my home theater. At higher volumes it quickly distorts. If the volume is kept lower and you want a bit more full sound to support your Highs and mids at a very low cost, then try this. If you can spring the extra cash for something better do it. Luckily for me the Klipsch 10" went on sell the next day, and I upgraded to that for only a $100 more. I am soooo much happier, and so is my wife and she usually could care less about audio. I should have expected this performance for the price, but I was hopeful.
What's great about it: Low price
What's not so great: Bottoms out at low frequency, not much power
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
