Never listened to one but KLH is on the lower spectrum of speakers, hence the low cost.
Here is a place where you can learn a lot about speakers and perhaps find some decent deals.

I have that sub right now. I started with a HTiB and have been upgrading each piece a little at a time.
3 of us rent a house so my setup is in my room, so not sure how it would work in a larger room. It'll put out some serious bass. When I first hooked it up and threw in Lord of the Rings, one roomie was saying the floor in his room was vibrating... so had to turn it down a notch
That's a good price. Even if you don't like it, being a subwoofer, it's easy to disconnect and take back.

decided to buy it, but haven't opened it yet... still waiting to hear what some of you guys say... fry's will take it back, but they make it a pain if it opened... my b-day is on tues, so i will probably open it then (kind of like a gift to myself)

Maybe, maybe not. Its from Outpost and if its considered a special clearance item they may not take it back. Not sure what would happen if you live near a Fry's & try to return it. For $49 though I'd suggest just selling it if he does not like it.
