Same family: the Yamaha NS-SW050 (smaller subwoofer, ranked lower, estimated 2.7/5).
Pros: An affordable compact ported 10 inch subwoofer with a 100 watt amp and a stylish cabinet. A compact 10-inch ported subwoofer with 100W RMS and a measured 105.0 dB CEA-2010 average from 40 to 80Hz in a 12 kg cabinet. It delivers surprisingly deep bass at a tight price point, and the twisted flare port provides an accurate, powerfully rich response. Stylish design complements home decor.
Cons: There is no crossover control and no polarity switch, which makes it harder to blend with main speakers. The servo technology gave no measurable benefit, and its side port did not quiet port noise. Cheaper subs from Polk and Elac produced more output.
