Onkyo Skw204 Bass Reflex Powered Subwoofer Black – Are They A Rip Off Or Good Buy?

January 16th, 2010

If you have looked around the internet at all,you have seen the high prices of subwoofers and may not be pleased with what you are seeing. Especially if you are on a budget like myself. These days it is more important than ever to save money on everything possible.

TheOnkyo SKE204 Subwoofer may seem like a good buy because of the price and specs on this speaker but we need to look through some information on these speakers and figure out the pros and cons. Everyone may have a little different opinion so I will just put the facts out there and allow you to decide on your own.

Let’s first take a look at what we already know – the Onkyo skw204 Bass Reflex Powered Subwoofer Black is very reasonably priced for the specs that it provides. The speakers claims to put out some great deep bass and says that it will allow you to enjoy the experience of a subwoofer without paying a huge amount. There has been a a few mixed feelings on this issue and I have looked over the different opinions.

One of the user reviews spoke about how he loved the system and it’s ability to put out high quality bass without the “one note” sound that other same price range subwoofers may have. There may not be a more annoying feelings than thinking you are going to get a great buy and then find out that you ( thinking you were saving money ) had actually gotten a less than enjoyable experience than you had hoped for.

This system seems to have a little problem when it gets cranked up loud. The box and the grill begin to rattle if the volume is too high – I’m not sure what the “too high” is but from all of the other feedback I am guessing you have to crank it up considerably loud to have this problem. The way I see if is if you are interested in a normal movie and music experience such as in the theater you should be safe… however,if you are interested in having a very loud rocking party you may want to invest in another speaker without the rattle at high volumes.

If you are running a lot of wires over your this speaker you may have a problem since this speaker is pretty sensitive to other wires that run nearby or over it’s own wires. As I said before though,it’s a preference thing. If you do not want or need to run wires over it,there is no worry about this con of the Onkyo skw204 Bass Refle Powered Subwoofer Black.

In my opinion ( and others ),all in all this is a great speaker for the price and even if you are on a budget you should be able to afford it.
