This sub has a very full range of bass. It really fills in the bottom end weather your watching a blue ray or listening to really any type of bass heavy music. There is only one down side I can think of and that is that it doesn't shut off automatically when you turn your receiver off. Yamaha is a trusted name and I dont think there would be a better deal that you could find for the quality and price of this sub. Believe me I checked . Unless your reciever or home amps are very powerful and your afraid of blowing it I would say definitely go with this sub, you won't be sorry.
