I need a physically flat or small subwoofer....

I am not a big home-theater guy, so I don't intend to put alot of effort into this; however, I have a two-way setup for watching movies and I thought I would add a subwoofer for just a little bit of oomph. My problem is that I don't have alot of room and I need a self powered subwoofer with a low profile. I saw one, once, made by Magellan, but that subwoofer is way more than I want to spend. I have also seen some made by Advent, but they are for PC setups. Anyone know of anything else that might work for me. I don't need alot of power as it will probably be in a corner in one of my small rooms. TIA

I agree with Jameswei. If you want power but dont want to sacrifice the real estate, the True Subwoofer Jr from Sunfire is the way to go. 9"x9"

But the Sunfire may be too expensive. The Yamaha can be had for around 300.00 and is very good.

My son tried a small Yamaha ported sub. Can’t remember the model number.

The sub was replaced quite quickly as the port at decent volumes ‘chuffed’ like a steam engine. Be careful of cheapo subs especially with front firing ports as they often have this tendency to burp more than beat.

 

He tried an SVC budget model but eventually settled on a Rel Tzero. He has upgraded his speakers to Kef Actives now and happily runs a T7i

Kef is making some nice small form factor subs.

Hopefully after 22 years the OP was able to find something.
