Amazon.com Product Description
Listeners who want to treat themselves to the best in home theater sound need look no further than the Acoustech H-100 front-firing subwoofer, which reproduces powerful, room-filling bass. Featuring 150 watts of continuous power output (500 watts peak) and a 12-inch, front-firing, long-throw woofer, the H-100 makes movies sound explosive and gives music a deep, full-bodied appeal--all without causing unwanted boominess or distortion. The subwoofer delivers a wide frequency response of 24 to 200 Hz, along with a max acoustic output of 115 dB SPL (sound pressure level). It performs particularly well when teamed with Acoustech's other home theater speakers, which are customized to match the subwoofer's output. A further bonus stems from the sub's striking rear-vented cabinet, which is outfitted with a high-gloss black finish (think piano surface) on the top and bottom. The finish adds extra flair to the sub's design, as does the copper color of the woofer (revealed when you remove the grille). The H-100 measures 15 by 17 by 18.25 inches (W x H x D) and weighs approximately 42 pounds. It's also covered by a two-year warranty on parts and labor. What's in the Box

Great subwoofer for the price!!! July 16, 2008
This is a great subwoofer at this price level!!! I upgraded from the stock subwoofer of my mid-range Onkyo home theater system (I have already upgraded the satellites) and this makes a huge difference!!! For movies, the low end is tight and adds significant depth vs. my previous sub, which would produce muddled bass during scenes with significant bass / action / etc.
I have done only limited testing of music with this sub, but it is definitely tighter (i.e. less boom) than my former HTIB sub, and now I get great low-end response without having to constantly tweak the receiver / subwoofer settings to minimize boom.
I did a significant amount of research before buying this subwoofer and I am absolutely satisfied with my purchase. This is a great subwoofer for this price point and I highly recommend this if you are wanting to upgrade from your current setup.
Excellent sub for the money! June 19, 2008
In building my home theater recently I needed a sub that looked nice, wasn't too big but also sounded good and wasn't terribly expensive. Enter the H100, it fit all of those criteria to a "T".
The high gloss black finish and grill look great, the sub doesn't take up too much room (which is nice for us as we live in a condo) and was a good value.
The sound is wonderful for home theater and is respectable for music. If you primarily listen to music there are probably some other subs in this price range that may suit you better. For home theater though I think this is as good as it gets for the price. Now as you move up in budget there are a LOT of great subs out there starting in the $350+ range but not everyone has that kind of money. For those looking for a good "starter" sub, I'd highly recommend this one.
 Acoustech H-100 Subwoofer Review May 17, 2008
Having just purchased the H-100 after reading a few reviews on it, I am very satified with my purchase. Admittedly, it wasn't as heavy as I thought it would be however, this is a GREAT home theatre sub for the price.
Upon receiving it from UPS, I hooked it up into my existing system (powered by a Yamaha HTR-5550 receiver) and loaded in Master & Commander. When the action scenes hit, this sub literally shakes the walls of my apartment and you actually feel the "hits" of the cannonballs in the chest. Literally. For home theatre, this sub is very tight and punchy, with the lowest bass notes (I think that it's called "LFE") projecting out into the room with a lot of "hit".
For music, I think it is a little boomy, but if you using a good media player (I run a coaxial line out from my PC soundcard straight into the Yamaha receiver), you can use the equalizer in the media program to iron out some of the boom - after which, it sounds GREAT.
All in all, this is a great performing, aesthetically pleasing sub, that is great value for the dollar. IMO, it is well worth checking out @ this price point and to date, I am very happy with the purchase.

I was very hesitant to buy this speaker but I had just lost my old one and money was very tight, so I did'nt have much of a choice. I researched it at Bic's web page and every audio page that I could come up with. I did'nt read one negitive thing about it. The only thing I could say that may turn someone away, would be that this is a sub for a normal,(small to medium) size room.
The encloser, grill and speaker all look very high quality, very nice fit and finish.
The sound that comes out is quite good, of course your placment will change the sound to your own tastes.
I have it set up to about one half volume and to the parameters of my receiver, it fills my room with full rich bass and responds beautifully to movies, I turn it down for music because I don't really like my music with bass as the focus.
