Professional reviewers praise the Sub Mini as a game-changing compact subwoofer, highlighting its dual 6" woofers, sealed force-canceling design, and precise Class-D amplification that deliver deep, articulate bass.
Everyday users love the dramatic improvement in bass depth and the sub's small footprint, but note its size feels larger than expected and it offers limited impact in large spaces.
Professional reviewers commend the S40TR for its powerful, cinematic soundstage, robust Dolby and DTS decoding, and premium build, while noting the lack of Wi-Fi and voice-assistant features as a shortfall for a 2024-era sound system.
Everyday users praise the immersive surround experience, deep bass and dialogue clarity, but report Bluetooth lag, a dated ThinQ app and the need to power rear speakers with AC cords.
“Beautiful combo. Very happy with it.”
“Fits perfectly under the couch where my old sub would never go.”
“It looks like a piece of modern art, not a speaker.”
