Lots of woof for not much dough!
My second JBL subwoofer, first was a CSub50. The is a great refurbished value. Plenty of power and goes nice and low. Should make me a happy camper for a long time.

Just like its big brother, very pleased!
I bought this to compare to the ES250P 12" sub I bought recently and which I thought might be too big for my home theater system LOL. In comparison, the 150P, when volume matched to the 250P, held its own with a bit better integration to my smallish satellites, was a bit tighter musically but the cone was pushed to its limits to match the output of the (relatively) loafing 12" on movie soundtracks or similar CD audio. All I can say about the ES150P is wow! Lows of the 12" are amazingly all there in a slightly smaller package that I was looking for, but it does run pretty hot as the volume knob has to go up to compensate for less cone area I suppose. That is a concern for me long term but right now it is putting out about 110db peak @ 1M of solid sound on music tracks with the volume knob only at about 1/3rd of max, with the back of the amp pretty hot. I suppose that's as good as it is safely going to get but darn good enough when I want it! I was going to keep only one of the two but decided to keep both. The ES150P for the dedicated music system where the 250P was simply too much, and the 250P for the home theater where the 150P might not be enough. I couldn't be more pleased with ES150P because its performance is so close to its big brother that it would have to be the better buy of the two. Only wish both subs had auto standby to save power but I just turn them off when not being used so problem solved.

Amazing Performance.
I convinced my grandparents to purchase this sub, after they were reluctant at first to upgrade any of the old and outdated components from their previous home theater setup. Needless to say, once this beauty arrived we were all impressed, to say the least. This is a very high performing (and powerful) sub that not only plays loudly, but also crystal clear. Movies become an immersive and life-like experience, and music is filled with deep-end presence that was previously lacking. The sub's performance was (and still is!) so great that my grandparents decided to completely upgrade their entire home-theater system to JBL's matching ES series speakers. Would highly recommend!

The Es150 does come with a grill to cover the speaker, right?
Yes, that is correct. The photo does not show the grille so that it can show off the massive woofer.

Is there any difference between playing the sub in LFE mode and playing it on normal mode with the crossover-frequency set at 120 Hz (same crossover-freq as LFE)? Thanks.
In terms of sound, it will not make any difference. This is how the Input works. The LFE input is only selected if the ES150P is connected to a receiver that offers a low frequency effects. If the receiver does not have digital processing (i.e. Dolby Pro-Logic decoding only), the normal input must be selected. That being said, if the ES150P is connected to a receiver that does have digital processing (i.e. Dolby Digital or DTS decoding), this will bypass the crossover in the sub. The adjustment will be made on the receiver.

I know that the sub has 300 watts of power, but just how loud can it get relatively speaking? Also, will this work with any AV receiver?
It is impossible to say how loud it will get, in words. Generally speaking, it will work with any receiver. The general rule when selecting a sub is to make sure it has at least twice the per channel wattage rating of the receiver. So, for example, if your receiver is capable of putting out 80 watts per channel, you want your sub to have a rating of at least 160 watts. This will guarantee that the sub will have enough power to keep up with your receiver.
So, in a nutshell, as long as your receiver has a wattage rating of 150 watts per channel or less, the ES150P will work well with it without any issues.

I have a pair of JBL Studio Series S3811BE speakers. Will the ES150P sub woofer you have on sale work well with these speakers? I have a Sony STR-DA5ES stereo receiver. I have a jack to hook up a active subwoofer. What sub woofer speaker wire will I need
Your Sony receiver is rated at 110 watts per channel, so yes, the ES150P will be powerful enough to keep up with the power of your receiver, and will work very nicely with your S38II speakers.
As for a sub cable, all you need is a standard single RCA audio cable, and you'll be good to go.

I cant get it to power on anymore, is there a fuse in the sub?
Yes, there’s a fuse (1.25A 250V 5x20mm) in the ES150P, but it is internal. We do not recommend opening this unit up, as it is electrical and can be very dangerous. If you would like to have the unit serviced, please submit a request at www.jbl.com/contactus and the Customer Service team will happily assist you.

Does this unit (subwoofer ES150P) have a front cover or is the woofer exposed?
Yes, it comes with a front grille. The picture does not show the grille, just for the sake of showing the massive woofer.
