But it keeps 100% of the sound quality and performance. You’ll be amazed of the quality of bass from this virtually invisible cube. Who should listen to the Polk DSW MicroPro series? Anyone looking for a large quantity AND quality of bass, from a compact enclosure. DSW MicroPro is suitable for any genre of music, and any style of movie. It works great for video games too. A unique inverted dustcap design gives the woofer an elegant look while eliminating the need for a grille. All these features add up for stellar subwoofer performance from a compact enclosure that can be hidden just about anywhere.

I should state right off, that most audiophiles will probably agree with me that dedicated sub manufacturers like SVS and Hsu probably do a better job at producing really high-end sub-woofers than Polk, but holy cow, this really is a gem, particularly at this price and at this size. I can't believe the quality and volume this little cube that isn't much bigger than a 12 pack is able to produce. I have it placed in a fairly large room (20x25) and it can really fill the space, almost as well as the top of the line SVS (which is the size of a small fridge and not exactly pleasing to look at.)

Though the cone itself is only 8" (albeit driven by a 1200W on-board amp), it really hits the good low rumbles below 40Hz. The smaller speaker size also allows the sound to be more punchy and responsive, not the boomy, muddy sound of some other subs. Whether or not you prefer that type of sound from your subwoofer is subjective, but personally, I like my explosions to, well, explode, not come a rumbling in on a freight train. So for me, this little unit really is perfect.
