Niles Audio SW6.5 and SW8 Ultra-Compact Subwoofers
The new SW6.5 and SW8 are made in the same custom installer centric stride as every other product Niles makes. But this is a good thing because installers need products that are flexible and bulletproof. These two subwoofers are likely not the best choice for a client demanding ultimate home theater performance, but might be perfect for a business needing background music or installations where you can't use a larger free standing or in-wall subwoofer. Think soundbar in a bedroom, these subs are perfect for that!

Sw8
I have been listening to the SW8 for a decent bit today and am not really impressed with the output, at all. Levels must be cranked to achieve any real volume. That being said, it certainlly does have it's place, but it's limited.

Gene, I believe they are $499.99 an $599.99 respectfully. I would say that I played with placement and I am not as down now as I previously was, but still not impressed greatly.Originally Posted by gene

So it's the Jessica Simpson of subwoofers? Gorgeous to look at, but lacking any real substance...

There are already a lot of these compact subs on the market, I'm not sure how these can be distinguished from the competition. At least they are not hugely expensive, although I think you can shave a lot off that sticker price by forgoing the nice finish. After all, if you are going to hide them, what's the point of needing them to look nice.

True that....also true that I would loved to have a piece of both 5 years ago, but not now.
