This subwoofer outperforms anything my local Best Buy has to offer. For anyone who's new to home theater this product might seem huge. But if you want deep bass with sub 20hz frequency response this subwoofer is the best Best Buy has to offer in the sealed subwoofer department. Granted I prefer ported subwoofers, The ported version of this product "svs pb16 ultra" is about twice its size and wouldn't sit well with my wife having something that large in our living room. The sb16 ultra is the best home hometheater subwoofer I've heard to date ported or sealed. I've demoed everything from Martin Logan to B&W at Best Buy none of them comes close to the dynamics this subwoofer provides. Im saving up to purchase another one.

I purchased this subwoofer with high hopes to upgrade from my Klipsch SW-350. What a let down it lacked depth and seem to be very under powered. Compared to the Klipsch 8 inch woofer it seem to be outclassed on a series of test. I currently own a pair of Energy CF-70 which are amazing unfortunately this Energy subwoofer is not up to par. I would not use this subwoofer if I got it for free. Returning this subwoofer and going back to Klipsch.

Upgrade your home theater system with this NVIDIA SHIELD Android console. It lets you stream 4K HDR movies and TV shows and play hundreds of PC-quality games via GeForce NOW or Android streaming. The 16GB of internal memory stores your favorite multimedia files, and the voice search feature of this NVIDIA SHIELD Android console lets you access content immediately.

To clarify this has same internal specifications (CPU/Ram) as the previous 2015 16gb release and functions the same. The shield TV itself is reduced in size but at a cost of removing the micro-USB, and microSD slot. On the front the IR-receiver is also removed. The remote is different too, it is now made of plastic, uses a coin battery that must be replaced, and does not have the 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening. The controller has been updated for ergonomics, google voice commands, and increased battery life due to BT connection. Overall, the Shield TV functions the same but is a re-launch to get the controller bundle out and save Nvidia in manufacturing cost by reducing the inputs of the 16gb and making the remote plastic. The 2015 Nvidia Shield TVs will get an OTA firmware update so both would have identical performance/firmware/software. If you have the old Shield TV then it's not necessary to get this. This does have a new controller but the Shield TV/Remote is a downgrade as it lacks the inputs and aluminum remote.

Your review erase in doubts I had towards my 2015 Nvidia Shield tv. I was actually on the verge of upgrading until i read your review. like other consumers I foolishly believe newer is always better.
