Product Description

Subwoofers aren’t just about having “knock down the walls” power—they’re about delivering accurate bass at lower volumes, too. With a 10-inch hybrid woofer and 200 watts of power, the Energy S10.3 is ideal for any home theater or stereo system. 200 watts of RMS power from the built-in amplifier gives it plenty of grunt to make the deepest bass resound. Plus, the S10.3s black ash veneer blends with most of Energy's speaker lines and looks great next to any flat panel display.

Customer Reviews

Great Sub
I purchased the take 5 speakers, and was debating between the 8" or 10" sub, I decided to go with the 10". I have had a lot of audio equipment over the years, and I really enjoy a nice clean "thumping" bass, and this unit delivers, with plenty to spare.
My only complaint is, this unit has a real nice blue light that comes on when activated, and they are notorious for blowing out, usually in less than a week. This doesn't affect the performance in any way, just no light. Now if you have five minutes to spare, and can use a screwdriver, you can replace this bulb for roughly $1. The catch is, you kill your warranty if you do. Energy customer service wants you to ship the unit back to them, to the tune of between $20-$30, (it is a heavy piece). depending on where you live, where they will replace the bulb,under warranty, and ship the unit back to you, with roughly a 2-3 week wait.
Makes absolutely no sense, and the reason for four stars, but if you don't mind living without the light, (it will blow) it is one nice sub, that can handle just about anything you can throw at it, even at high levels, without breaking up.

Stay away from Energy
I bought this subwoofer along with Energy TC 5 pack about 4 months ago, first 3-3 1/2 month i did not really use it because i did not have a receiver, i bought a brand new Onkyo-607 couple weeks ago. After all the break in and tweaking (crossover, phase etc) the sub works OK for mid to high sub frequencies but for low freq it makes a wierd noise like kur kur kur. for example during first 10 min of Terminator 2 and for songs like Baby boy - Beyonce, Slave for you -Britney spears etc. The noise level is so bad that you would not be able to bare it for more than 10 min, i watched entire T2 movie just to see if it was specific to a scene, during the movie it made the noise over 25 times.

I called Energy who said warantee is handled by the seller and has nothing to do with them. and the seller will make you ship it to their service center which usually costs $40-$60. I had to spend 2 hours on phone to convince them its' a bad sub to start with and is unusable. they sent me a return lable and i shipped the sub. i am not sure if they will repair the same or send me another one.

Yes, i am guilty of not doing enough research about subwoofer and just went by specifications and brand name. There are so many better subwoofers in the market e.g. Dayton, Polk, TSC that cost much less than this crappy one... TSC (the speaker company) is so confident about their speakers that they offer 30 day satisfaction garantee and they will pay for shipping both ways if you return the speakers. Same if you buy a sub from Best buy.

Do youself a favor and buy from a company where you can return with no cost to you and repairs won't cost you an arm and a leg.

I see a lot of deals with Energy speakers selling for a fraction of their price, do you wonder why? i suspect Energy may be going out of business.

Happy Holidays!

Pretty Solid SubWoofer....but
I bought this Sub Woofer based on numerous reviews I had read.

The first one I received simply did not work, and would not "auto power up. and off"..

The company did replace it immediately...but...only after I shipped the brand new not working one back to them...AT MY EXPENSE...well, these cost about $45 to ship..they are heavy.

The new one arrived and it works great. The set up and balancing was a tedious and numbing job. Their instructions are very brief and somewhat confusing, particularly regarding the switch settings.

But at the end of the ordeal...I have a great sounding subwoofer.
