JBL Balboa SUB 10 - 10-Inch Powered Subwoofer Video Clips. Duration : 3.25 Mins.


There are many options in the world of Subwoofers and as a result there are dozens of price points. The question is - what do you need? Are you using this speaker to - - As a boomer for dancing - As a source for bass during movies - as part of your home entertainment center - General music listening - All of the above The problem is that very few subs excel at all of the above or at least at a moderate price - that same is somewhat true for the JBL Balboa Sub10. While it does supply most of your needs it is unlikely to be a jaw dropper if you are using it for a dance party. Having said that.... how often do you host dance parties? However, as a general use speaker and as sub for your entertainment center and general music listening you should be very happy with the Sub10. What it has - Nice sound with a frequency response down to 30Hz (published), but with *real* performance to probably the high 30's. To me this is a nice bass response for a 10" sub - 100 watts of power - more than enough to power the 10" woofer - The speaker is front-ported but down fired - - Built in crossover - You will need a splitter in order to get a true stereo effect (unless your receiver has dual subwoofer outputs) - phase control 0 and 180 - Volume - just in case you find the bass a little too overpowering (like my wife) - Some complain that it is too large... but in order to get accurate sound reproduction subwoofers require a certain size so they can push the volume of air needed to reproduce ...
