$200. Studio subwoofer? I got to say this subwoofer is very impressive. It definitely not 200 watts but it does a great job It doesn’t have a boomy sound it has a nice hard punch to it. Unfortunately I have to have the gain control almost at max. I use it about 8 to 10 hrs a day and it hasn’t fail yet. For the price it’s impressive.

I have the Kali 5 IN monitors, which sound amazing, but wanted a little more bottom for massive sub drop accuracy. This sub covered that issue perfectly.There’s enough power to feel the extreme rumbles and low frequencies in a studio situation. I use Omnisphere for tracking lows and bass tracks. This sub can really let you feel the bottom. For the price, you can’t beat the improvement in an accurate tracking/monitoring situation.I have only had it for about 1 month. If it goes bad I’ll write another review. But so far, the build quality is extremely high; especially for the price point!

This is the worst piece of equipment I've ever owned right out of the box. I have a small home studio and wanted a cheap studio subwoofer to monitor the low end. Cheap doesn't even begin to describe this junk. I read all the bad reviews and could tell that some people just blew the speaker from blasting the bass too loud. I keep it at a low volume and it still crap. I ordered on Dec 16th and it was nice that it was here by Christmas, because I wasn't expecting that. The box arrived with a hole in it. The dent in the sub was the size of a pinky fingernail, so I was going to disregard that if it worked. I plugged it in and the sub worked, but only one monitor output worked, so my left monitor had no sound. I sent it back for an exchange (should've got a refund), and that was a hassle too. It took a couple weeks to get the new one and I was excited that it actually worked.... until Jan 26th when it started doing the same thing with the monitor outputs. I guess that what kind of quality you get when it's "engineered in the US and assembled in china" like it says on the label. I was warned by my friends not to buy anything from Rockville, because they are junk. I should've listened but I thought I was getting a good deal. I don't usually leave reviews at all, but this has been a horrible experience. Be aware and don't make the same mistake that I did.

I've had SUBWOOFERS before - 7 total - AND THIS ROCKVILLE APM10B SUB IS THE BEST I'VE HAD !!! It goes very Low without the "OVER RUMBLE" of other GOOD LOW BASS SUBWOOFERS !!!The Sound is very Clean and Clear with GREAT LOWS AND PUNCH !!! It's so Clear, You can even hear Single Notes of Bass & I've not heard this kind of Reproduction of Different Bass Sound in a SUBWOOFER Before. Its a STUDIO SUBWOOFER and I hadn't Heard this kind of Sound before. The other SUB's I had Put Rumble and Loudness before True Reproduction. This SUB matches My Near-Field "YUMI" Monitor Speakers Perfectly !!!AND LIKE I SAID BEFORE - YOU CAN ACTUALLY HEAR BASS NOTES & NOT JUST LOUD NOISE !!! But, don't get me wrong theirs plenty of "LOUD" SOUND - JUST PURE AND REAL !!!I Just sent back 3 other SUBS before finding this GREAT SUBWOOFER and a this Price Point You'll not find a BETTER SUBWOFFER !!!I've had $499 SUBS but this SUBWOOFER IS BETTER !!! The Quality of Everything about this SUB is FIRST RATE !!!BUY IT !!! YOU'LL BE AMAZED !!! I JUST LOVE THIS SUB - IT HAS FINISHED OFF MY SYSTEM TO A PERFECT ENDING !!!

This is the second APM10 that I have purchased. I bought the initial one last year and I have been pleased with it. I do small DJ gigs and I wanted another unit to place in an adjacent room for more coverage. The unit that I recently ordered through Amazon was defective and would not power on. I wanted to return for an exchange, Amazon was quick to respond for a refund, but I wanted an exchange. The vendor was a bit slow to respond to emails, so I ended up having to call for an RMA #. I returned the defective unit promptly and I received a functioning replacement (it took 4 business days to ship the replacement). I will note that both units that I received appear to be used, it was obvious that they had been reboxed. Power cord, owners manual loose in box and protective wrap was retaped. The second unit has a damaged corner (see pic), it does not appear to have happened in transit as the double boxes are not damaged. I was not able to daisy chain units as I had hoped, using the sub jack(see pic), apparently the unit does not support this (per Audiosavings support). Audiosavings was not really helpful with this matter, they suggested running line out from one sub to the other. They said the sub jack was meant for a footswitch ( huh ??) Line out did not work as the low frequencies are cut off by the first sub crossover. I ended up splitting the input signal to feed to both units. I am pleased overall with performance of the sub, however the support and turnaround time for the replacement were lacking.

great sounding subwoofer for the price. I use it in a live music environment for a duo act and it works flawlessly.
