Great but be aware of the latency
Its suprisingly compact and dense, and really goes down to 16hz at resonable monitoring levels!
However, the DSP (and AD/DA conversion) adds a total of 2,4ms of delay to your audio. So even if you don´t use any speaker/sub-distance in its settings you will always get a minimum of 2,4ms of latency in your audio. I have connected it on a separate out and had to delay my main monitors by the same amount (minus their own DSP-latency, Adam A7v which has a 1,7ms internal latency). This is if you can place the sub in the same plane as the monitors of course.
In terms of sound i´m really pleased with it! It is punchy and very precise, not boomy like most ported subs (this is a sealed design, giving you a smaller box-size at the cost of higher power consumption).
The settings of the sub are very advanced, i was able to almost notch out my lowest room mode at 33hz with the built in PEQ while using REW and a measurement mic resulting in a very flat room response. Same with the next room mode at 45hz. If i ever change to an analog sub, i will add a MiniDSP in between to do the exact same thing as this is more important than any subwoofer spec.
Placement and room acoustics is of highest importance since the room always dominates in the lower frequency ranges. Expect to spend some time tuning the integration!
A nice side-effect of the dual facing 9" elements is that the sub does not vibrate at all!
Overall, i´m very happy with it and thinking about adding a second one..
I give it 4 out of 5, mainly because of the 2,4ms latency and the lack of information of this in the documentation. Had to ask Dynaudio about it.
