Expert Reviews
What reviewers liked
If you use Echo devices for music, this subwoofer will significantly round out your sound.
Small and inexpensive. Successfully rounds out low frequency response when used with an Echo or Echo Plus.
Compact 100W design with big sound. Visually matches other current gen Echo devices. Can be paired with two Echo devices for 2.1 stereo sound.
The Amazon Echo Sub improves the bass output of Echo speakers for an affordable price. It's attractive and the lack of fiddly controls makes it easy to use for newbies.
Adds sorely missing bass to Echo speakers. Works brilliant in a stereo pair with Echo Plus speakers. Easy to set up.
Deep bass sound that travels well through rooms. Users have the ability to pair multiple Echo devices to the subwoofer.
Easy to connect. Well integrated. Decent amount of power.
What reviewers didn't like
Only works with Echo speakers. Volume and crossover cannot be adjusted individually.
Not particularly powerful or booming. Only works with Echo speakers. Doesn't work with Bluetooth connections to Echo speakers.
Not suitable for large spaces. Only supports playback over Wi-Fi network. Must be paired with a compatible Echo device. Stereo pairing not available with some Echo devices. No Bluetooth or 3.5mm Aux port. No volume or crossover adjustment. Fabric is difficult to clean.
The bass can be overwhelming with certain music. It's not possible to adjust the volume or the crossover of the subwoofer individually. The addition of a line-in would have made the Sub more flexible.
Few controls. Can't fix mid-range issues with some Echo speakers.
Does not work when Alexa is speaking, only when music is being played. Connecting two Echo’s to this speaker can be a challenge.
Not the leanest or best defined sound.
