Dayton AudioSUB-800 8" Powered Subwoofer

I have used Dayton speakers before, so I really didn't have any concerns. I knew I would get a good product at a good price point, and it doesn't disappoint. It is an 8 inch powered sub, not a 15". It is probably not for EDM parties cranked. But it is just what I wanted for bass fill in my home Pub, paired with 4 Klipsch R-51M Bookshelf Speakers and Yamaha A-S301 amplifier. Fills the whole basement with great sounding music, and the Sub fills in behind the R-51M's just right. It has a surprising amount of good clear bass. The connections on the back provide for about any option you would need and feeding it with my WiiM Ultra is just enjoyable. Happy with my purchase.

I really like the sound of the sub in my small workshop. Works well with my WiiM Amp.

I never understood the people saying this speaker doesn't go deep enough, or can't fill a large room. Those people are spoiled $1000 sub audiophiles. If you are a normal person, who wants deep thundering bass for a cheap price hear me out.The bass THUNDERS. It's SO deep I have to turn the volume down to nearly nothing at night so it doesn't disturb the neighbors. When I turn the gain up more then 3/4ths of the way (on low volume) I feel like my head is gearing to explode. It's so deep it feels like you're at a concert. Audiophiles are too picky man, unless you're trying to fill a massive room, you don't need the 1200. You don't need the 1000. This thing is a monster, it's like a foot tall, and the driver is 8". I came from a 4" sub I didn't know it could GET this massive or deep.Along with being powerful, the sound quality you get for your money is unparalleled. I like to turn my speakers off sometimes and just listen to how detailed and tight the bass is. It's not boomy, there's no rattling noises, it's tight and clear, and adds depth to your music/show/game whatever. I've had subs before that sound boxy, artificial or fake, that is not the case. This thing is the real deal.

I purchased this little subwoofer to use out in our living room, paired with a set of Peachtree Audio M24 powered speakers and connected in a wired configuration to our 55 inch Insignia TV. After redoing a couple of rooms in our home this fall I moved the audio gear out of the living room and into my newly created music room so that my wife could have her own sanctuary to kick back and watch TV. She has tolerated the audio gear for nearly 35 years so this is her time now.So she didn't require an amplifier and didn't wish to see speakers out there so I placed the TV upon a couple of cheap tables and then used some yoga blocks to elevate the TV enough to connect her little DVD player without it being in the way of her view. I then located the subwoofer in the middle between the tables and flanked the subwoofer with the speakers to each side resting atop an angled rubber stand and the end result is a great sounding little system that far exceeds the thin speakers of the TV. Of course it won't punch like my big audio system but it's plenty sufficient for her needs, and she likes it a lot. I located a piece of speaker cloth that was the perfect size to conceal it all and now just wait for the creases from packaging to relax. We're very happy with it and would recommend it to anybody just wanting to greatly improve the audio of their TV set.

Best of its Class. Outstanding sound!I researched online for an affordable unit to get even more bass to my Zbox SB500 sound bar so i decided to research a subwofer and found the Dayton Audio SUB-800 8-Inch 80 Watt Powered for $99.95 so i added it. Once hooked it to the TV headphone with the wire that came from the soundbar, set Gain and Crossover at 3/4 you won't believe these two units combined how great music or movie listening experience you get, very satisfied and at 3/4 of Sono's price.Pro: sound.Cons: does not come with aBasics 3.5mm to 2-Male RCA Adapter Audio Stereo Cable. No remote control that you can use.As for the Zbox SB500 sound bar I was amazed by the quality of the sound. The price so much affordable than the Sono's option, so i decided to give it a try. Once at home I installed it on top of the TV and the sound is incredible. Volume TV at 8, and Blue Ray or Netflix at 11. The bass is incredible. For best sound quality I set up accuvoice at sd3, output leveling at noOL, bass 3. Treble HI 2, surround to sd 3. Sound is Crystal clear, bass is outstanding, beyond expectations. 3D sound is a plus, can hear sounds with this bar I did not hear with my previous sound system when watching the same moviesYou wont be dissapointed.You yube videos is like being at the concert.Try these units, and watch movies in Netflix. Sound is Great!Your living Room will never be the same!

This sub is working well in a small listening area paired with a pair of Pyle 6.5” bookshelf speakers powered by a Sony STR-DH190 stereo receiver.

This subwoofer is a perfect companion to our soundbar. Low bass is not boomy like some of the bigger subs. This one retains detail in the lows that is more realistic.

I had limited floor space for a sub. I am glad I found the Dayton Audio sub as I have used their drivers before to refurbish my vintage speakers in another room and found them to work well.Honestly, I was presently surprised at how well these blend in and yet creat a very sold base for my small 2 way Klipsch speakers. My receiver is an Onkyo 8220. The receiver connects to the sub via coax pre out.
