It may be good for music but definitely not for movies. The sub in the receiver have to be adjusted to +10 in order to feel it. I wanted to replace my 20 year old JBL that was damaged by my cat and the replacement is way too inferior although it says 28 - 4000Hz Frequency Response but no way near the 23hz from my JBL. May be I just have to give it sometime to break in, but so far not much punch.
