Pros
The most common comment in positive reviews is that these are loud - the term "earth shaking" came up more than once in customer reviews. Many people, including a few that operate or hire companies, said this unit is incredibly strong and sturdy.
Cons
There were very few complaints - someone suggested that casters should ship with it instead of being optional, someone else pointed out that some control features only work via the app - EG if you mute a speaker you can only unmute it if you have the app running - even after turning them off and on.
Overall
If you want nothing less than earth shaking bottom end, then the JBL SRX828SP is definitely a good option. These were on our recommended list for over 3 years and only came off when in November 2019 when a thorough review of the category showed there were more highly rated options available which you can see in our guide to The Best PA Subwoofers.
