Reviewers from pcmag have found the following***:
A little extra boosting (say, levels 2 or 3) goes a long way when listening to music with serious sub-bass depth. For films, the levels seem most natural at roughly 0-5. For an even sound signature, we recommend keeping the Sub level close to zero for classical and jazz.

Pros
  • Powerful sub-bass depth at default levels
  • Powerful rumble and thunder
Cons
  • No built-in subwoofer
