Review: Brought New Life to My Old 2.1 System! - I purchased the Dayton Audio DCS165-4 6-1/2" Classic Subwoofer (4 Ohm) to replace the aging subwoofer in my old 2.1 system, and I couldn’t be happier! This subwoofer completely revitalized my setup. The bass is punchy, clean, and tight, far exceeding my expectations for its size. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality is excellent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big Bass, stron power, small package!
*by R***L on November 4, 2025*

Absolutely Fantastic small sub! I bought this to replace any blown sub in my Klipsch 2.1 speakers and it actually sounds better than the original! Worth every penny!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This little sub is awesome!
*by B***Y on December 28, 2024*

I bought this to pair with some Klipsch RP-600M bookshelf speakers for my computer desk audio setup and I couldn't be more happy with it. I put it in a 0.5ft^3 ported box with a 2" port tuned to 37hz and it sounds amazing and hits hard. I'm running it off a Fosi Audio TP02 amp and it gives it more than enough power. I added a photo of my box design if anyone else wants to reproduce it, it can be made with a single 3/4" 2ftx4ft piece of MDF you can get from Home Depot for $30 and the port is a 2" PVC pipe cut at 10". Couldn't be happier with this little sub, it has exceeded all of my expectations for a small subwoofer and i highly recommend it.
