Well Worth The $$$
This Subwoofer Was Found Through Searching The 3 Main Sites I Shop On - amazon.com/eBay.com/Wal-Mart.com - Only Wal-Mart.com was Available for Purchase and Readily Available. I Wanted To Add Another Powered Subwoofer To My Home Theatre Since I Currently Only Had 1 SVS PB-1000 (Which Currently Has Been Discontinued By SVS and Now Has Become Very Hard To Find One Anywhere). The Descend DN8 Came Within a Week and a Half Because OF The Mid-West Was Pounded By Winter Weather, I Imagine It Would Been Shipped Within Days If It Weren't For The Bad Weather. I Immediately Hooked It Up To My Yamaha Aventage RX-A1080 A/V Receiver and I Played Various Media From 4k Ultra High-Def Discs, NETFLIX and Amazon Prime and VUDU. This Unit Performed Flawlessly and Seemlessly With My Current System. Watching Reign of Fire (Blu-Ray), The Hunger Games Catching Fire (Amazon Prime), and Valley Girl (4l UHD Blu-Ray) The Performance Of This Subwoofer Shined Through, Thanks Wal-Mart.com!!!
Thank you for these kind words and feedback. We do know you had plenty of options and are happy to be a part of your listening experience. Happy listening!
