I've had good luck with Boston products in the past but got two subs and both had a bad power supply. Maybe it was a fluke, who knows, but it was a disappointing. Amazon was outstanding and refunded the full purchase price and even paid shipping. That great customer service will keep me coming back.

So far this product has been great for me. The bass is really deep but not overpowering (unless you want it to be) and completely distortion free. I don't know how I ever had a home theater without it.

I've owned Boston Acoustics speakers of various types for over 10 years now. I love the precision of their sound, the quality of their construction and components, and their value. The HPS12HO met these expectations and more. I like the fact that it has an automatic power mode where it detects whether it's getting input and then powers itself on and off, silently and seamlessly, as needed. It also seems to work great with both stereo and LFE inputs provided in parallel -- it appears to defalut to the LFE if a signal exists, otherwise it takes the L/R inputs. This works well if you have a variety of sources. Output is crisp and clear with no distortion up to painful volumes. Even though it's not down-firing, the sound is totally non-directional and it goes down to low enough frequencies (with no noticable drop-off until about maybe 28Hz) that you can really feel the bass, which is what you want. This is a great product!

I recently gave a review on the HS 450 Horizon floor-mounted speakers, and said "they provide such good bass, you don't need a sub-woofer". As this is still true, I am a greedy Audiophile!
I like to call this sub-woofer a "THUNDER-BOX"!! It is absolutely amazing! My entire "Sci-Fi Room" feels like it's in the throws of an Earth Quake! It is VERY well balanced bass. There is entirely NO distortion, or garbled vibrations. The exterior of the cabinet is made of the same materials as the HS 450's are. A very elegant look & feel indeed. I have recently become a "Pro Boston Acoustics" individual!
If you are a true "Audiophile", then you'll absolutely LOVE the HPS12HO sub-woofer! jahoosafatz....................
