Ready to get more out of your surround stereo or home theater experience? Check out the Sony Sony SA-WM250. With 150 Watts of power via the integrated amplifier, this center channel unit will deliver the low-frequency response you need for a complete surround sound system. It works great with video systems, too, thanks to its shielded design. This means that your TV will experience no interference. The advanced bass-reflex construction features an eight-inch long-throw driver and a venting port for maximum bass performance.
The built-in amplifier is mated to a level control so you can choose just how much thump you want in your movies. Line-level and speaker-level inputs give you the flexibility to connect the SA-WM250 to a variety of home theater set ups.

SA-WM250 subwoofer, user's manual, 2 speaker cables, RCA cable
1 rounds out my 5.1 system
I bought this sub to turn my 5.0 system into a 5.1.Since this is my first subwoofer I can't compare it to any other product. I can say it fills a void that my 2 fronts didn't.It doesn't shake walls or break glass and that is fine for my needs.If you have a small space and budget to match then this unit will do the job. One suggestion:replace the supplied 75ohm cable with a more expensive one. It makes a HUGE difference!
2 Amazon.com does not have this item
I can't tell you what I think of this because although Amazon says it is avaliable in 2 days they told me that they can't ship it to me for 2 months. I live in Boston, but given the delivery time you'd think I live in the middle of some remote ocean on a different planet.
3 Amazing
I own a 500W Home Theater system with an included passive subwoofer. I wanted to upgrade my system and found this SONY active subwoofer at Radio Shack. I decided to buy it because it's a SONY, and for its affordable price and specifications.
And WOW what a sound difference after installing it.. An amazing bulky sound with a completely different music atmosphere specially when playing 5.1 channel DVD's.
The Speaker is nicely looking, video shielded, with a volume control, and a cut frequency control. There is a phase selection knob, a monoaural jack for connecting to a digital receiver (that's the one I use), and connections to the small satellite speakers of the system. Even the monoaural cable and the speaker's cables are included. What could I wish more?
I recommend this subwoofer for anyone seaking to upgrade his sound system with an affordable price and great specifications.
4 WoW!
Bought a Sherwood home theater tuner/amp to take advantage of all those unused speakers in the basement bought over a 20 year period. Hooked up five speakers and had a great sound. Bought this damaged box special at Radio Shack warehouse outlet and then watched Starwars 4, 5 & 6 again. What an amazing differance. It doubled the intensity of the surround sound experience.
