## Description

desertcart.com: Dayton Audio SUB-1000 10" Powered Subwoofer : Electronics

Review: Buy this one...it is absolutely terrific. - Just unboxed and set up this BEAST. I am a total bass junkie...I gotta feel it, hear it, and not miss a single note. UNBOXING: - Dayton Audio, A+. Double boxed, barely no instructions, lots of foam, and care in packaging. - No Prime 2-day delivery. Parts Express always seems to charge too much for shipping. - Took the grill off and looked at woofer...holy moses, that is one beast of a subwoofer (thick surround, high excursion) SET-UP: - Easy peasey hook up. I am using my Harman/Kardon 3590 subwoofer RCA outputs (low level) Works perfectly. - Adjustments for volume and freq are very good. I was worried about the crossover not being parametric (dB drop off stuff). It is very high quality - The speaker hi and lo level connections are TOO SMALL - Placement - Looks great just about everywhere. SOUND: - I have a normal sized living room. This sub fills it with total ease. - I like having stuff hanging on the walls (pictures, clocks, wall hangings). However, this sub does NOT like them and will shake them off. - The bass is incredible, the quality spectacular, detail is there, EVERY note is there. - How loud will it go? Well, I cranked it up out of the box, everything in the house in every room shook. I "felt" every low freq note with a physical internal vibrato. Almost brain rattling in a way. For $128...you get A LOT of high quality bass and it will crack drywall, plaster, and make things fall off the wall - Absolutely no "huff and puff", no internal rattles, no weird air sounds like so many other subs. Just pure, clean low-low-low grunt, growling bass. CONCLUSION: - Best $128 I ever spent to round out my home entertainment center. This 10" powered sub with 100w is MORE than enough for about 99% of purchasers. It has the power, sound, and quality of a sub costing 3x as much. I am 47 and have heard some highly exotic stuff in my time. This Dayton Audio sub will "hit" and sounds excellent. Thank you Dayton Audio for making a great sub... UPDATE (6 Sep 2016) - I just "leave it on"...forget about setting the power switch to "Auto". No big deal. As for performance/sound...still amazed. One strange thing thought, my 9-year old large black male cat will lay in front of it and chill out. He loves the rumble or something. Did Dayton Audio infuse the subwoofer with catnip? I am ordering a second one for the bedroom. UPDATE (3 Jan 2017) - The sub is still in the same spot, however I laid it on it's side. The bottom of the sub is where the firing port is. Now (with it on it's side) the port is blowing off to the side. Neat trick! Played a movie today with lots of low frequencies and it really helped increase the experience. The "Auto" On still sucks...so, I leave it on. And lastly, if you use the speaker-level binding posts...they suck. Too small...already broke one messing around. Thankfully I don't use them. The speaker-level binding posts on my Polkaudio PSW10 sub are much better...and that sub has a front firing bass port. If I had to compare the two, the Dayton Audio has a better amplifier, speaker, and "overall" sound. However, the Polk does really well and sounds more natural...esp with the front firing port. It doesn't go quite as low as the Dayton Audio...but, it has a more "natural" low end response and feel. Think of it this way...each has about the same horsepower, but the Dayton Audio has more torque...and torque is king. Yet, the Polk has some class of it's own. UPDATE (May 1, 2018) - It's been a while running this monster. Still LOVE it. Since January, 2017's update, bought a SECOND one for my Vizio soundbar/HDTV system in the bedroom. It has Bluetooth and I paired with my desertcart Echo...the sound is AMAZING! Love this Dayton Audio 10" sub. Now, here is the kicker: I just upgraded my shop stereo system with a brand new Yamaha 5.1 Bluetooth receiver. It is a great sounding head unit...but, really miss/need my Dayton Audio subwoofer "growl". So, I bought ANOTHER one for the shop! I now have THREE of these! So, thanks Dayton Audio... UPDATE (May 24, 2018) - I own THREE now! The one in my garage/shop is hooked into my new Yamaha 5.1 Bluetooth receiver. I also have a desertcart Echo connected (Bluetooth) to this 2.1 system. The sound is crystal clear and the sound of the Dayton Audio is beastly. Garage acoustics are terrible...but was able to get really great sound and enough bass to rattle everything.
Review: Very good, compact subwoofer - The speaker is as described. It was well packed and I had no problems with delivery. It sounds great and is a good match for my bookshelf Elac speakers (DB52). I set the crossover at the highest setting, suspecting that the Elac speakers might begin to lose a dB or two starting close to 100 Hz. The subwoofer is NOT boomy. Be sure to get the proper cable to connect with your receiver. This is a good buy for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If this will 95% be used to listen to music (mostly jazz and improv music like the grateful dead) should I go with the 10" or the 12"?**
A: I have the SUB-1000 paired with Micca MB42X speakers and it provides plenty of base when I listen to my 80's rock music.

**Q: Is it worth the extra money for the 1000 instead of the 800?**
A: I would have to say, yes. The 800 is very nice but you get more sound with the 1000. Being 100watt over 80 watt gives you more power and 10 inch over 8 inch has more thump. The 1000 is more powerful all around. Smart buy over 800.

**Q: Anyone connect this to the dayton audio dta-120 with bookshelf speakers?**
A: I used the MB42X Bookshelf Speakers With 4-Inch Carbon Fiber Woofer and Silk Dome Tweeter (Black, Pair)MB42X Bookshelf Speakers With 4-Inch Carbon Fiber Woofer and Silk Dome Tweeter (Black, Pair) and hooked them all to my Onkyo amplifier...  SOUNDS AMAZING!

**Q: Will this Sub work for replacing a Passive Sub on a Samsung Home System?**
A: The only way this might work is to run the line to the passive sub into one of the speaker level inputs. Do not run the other speakers through the sub; the bass is already routed to the passive sub in your system.

The speaker is as described. It was well packed and I had no problems with delivery. It sounds great and is a good match for my bookshelf Elac speakers (DB52). I set the crossover at the highest setting, suspecting that the Elac speakers might begin to lose a dB or two starting close to 100 Hz. The subwoofer is NOT boomy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value sub: SUB-1000
*by A***R on August 23, 2025*

My first sub and it has made a huge difference. Very happy with purchase. Added to a stereo system for music playback. This has made my system sound whole and complete, filling in lower frequencies and blending with my vintage speakers. I nearly got the SUB-800, but glad I got the SUB-1000 for extended range, and it’s not that much bigger. I’m sure there are more superior subs out there, but I got the SUB-1000 for under $200, so very much content with this, very good value for what you get. Very flexible connectivity options, I am using high level inputs which work great. Having the all of the possible input options makes this easy to integrate with any system. Great level of control too with crossover, gain and phase control available. Very happy customer and I think my sub needs are now settled. Great deal too.
