| 30 of 31 people found the following review helpful  Meets all of my requirements, By This review is from: JBL ES250PBK High-Performance 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer (Electronics) I originally was going to order the ES150PBk 200watt sub-woofer, but it was not going to be shipped until mid April. So I went with JBL's 300watt RMS (500Watt Peak) model. I paid $353.00 with a $30.00 off (for applying for an Amazon credit card) and this brought the price down to $323.00 with "free" super saver delivery. This unit will shake your living room during explosions in action movies (check out Pearl Harbor and Live Free, Die Young) and provides a nice, tight bass in music. I only have it turned up to just passed the mid-point & that is very loud. It is well designed, attractive, and you get more than your money's worth. You can not go wrong for this price! By the way, it does come with a removable black grill that is not pictured. I researched several other sub-woofers and none came close to providing the specs that this one does at this price and from such a well-established company. Last, but not least, JBL has been making speakers since the 1930's and is at the...

While the purist might want a slightly lower -3dB frequency, it is better than most of the other speakers in this price range (and getting an extra third octave or so is pretty expensive, and in my opinion barely noticable). You will want to spend some time getting the level just right. I have a receiver which automatically does this, so it was very simple. If you don't you will want to try a variety of program material to tweak it. I can't evaluate how this speaker holds up when driven at it's rated maximum power. I would blow the windows (and my ears) out if I tried it in my room. Overall, a beautiful product. Well designed and built and worth the money. 50 of 62 people found the following review helpful  These blow up!, By This review is from: JBL ES250PBK High-Performance 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer (Electronics) Bought the predecessor (JBL 12" 250watt RMS sub) to this about five years ago and the circuit board fried for no reason but under-engineered. My brothers indentical unit had the same failure! No parts available says JBL but they said but they would buy it back from me for a song and sell me an identical refurb for a lot of loot. I ask why there are parts for refurbs they resell but NOT for me? I raised hell, called up Sales Manager and called them on their refurb scheme. They sent me a new subwoofer for free - the subwoofer is the item shown here and IS the subject of this review, just read on!Good, all set - I thought! Now this 2nd subwoofer fries about 2 years later. I took it apart too. Same damage on the circuit board. Same under-designed power supply stage. I will not contact JBL again as I am done with their subs and other products. But I wonder if they sell this unit as a refurb too. Now YOU know why others say they can't get parts and why these subs fry so much... Read more |
