Vanguard Caldera 10" Active Subwoofer

I waited for 3 months for this guy to arrive. And it was so worth it ! A truly amazing speaker that continues to impress after 2 plus months of use. I am a retired musician and bass player and can attest to this sub's excellent performance. Starting with the construction and parts quality, it is very good and truly remarkable at this price point. The quality of the driver and the internal amp stands up to units twice its price. What an engineering marvel !
The sound? Clean, musical, fast, and deep where it should be. No "boom box" here. Having played bass in many bands and in the recordings studio, I'm fussy about what I hear and what I hear is the kind of bass accuracy I often dont find in subs costing in the $1000 range, let alone at this bargain basement level. Kudo's to Mark and his development team. Remarkable indeed!
The Caldera 10 also blended into my two systems - one with vintage ADS L300's also an engineering marvel, and with my Polk LSi9's - a speaker that flew under many's radar but with an amazing midrange. Add in the Caldera 10's superbly accurate lower register and it makes me want to listen for many hours, And that friends is what it's all about. Thank you Vera-Fi Audio - I'll be back !

I replaced a dead Polk psw110 and am very pleased with the results!

Excellent.Gives my RSL Speedwoofer in another room some competition.

I am very happy with the sound and performance of this attractively priced subwoofer. It is better than I expected. Vera-Fi kept in touch with shipping updates and I was satisfied with the service. This subwoofer was not in stock when I ordered it. That can happen. Five Stars for service and product.

For the money ($200), you get a much better sounding subwoofer than you'd think was possible. It is not boomy or muffled, it provides bass detail. It will not fill a large room with window rattling bass, but what do you want for $200? It has plenty of volume and low bass for me beneath my desk for my desktop system. Most subwoofers in this price class sound muddy. This one isn't. The finish is acceptable. Since no one can see it beneath my desk it doesn't matter anyway. I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars because the auto on/off feature is a bit wonky--if not enough bass is coming through, it produces an intermittent clicking sound through the speakers, so I just leave the switch in the on position all the time. Also, the first one I received had the driver partially hanging out of the cabinet and it couldn't be fixed because the screws had pulled out of the pressed wood. That may have been shipping damage, but it let me see that the cabinet material is not robust. However, Vera-fi immediately apologized, paid for return shipping back to them, and immediately sent me another. The service was excellent. All in all, this subwoofer is an extremely good buy.

Going from no sub to this bad boy is amazing. Movies are next level, and I can enjoy my music on a whole other level! Also the Owner Mark is very helpful and responsive.

Very well made 10 inch subs! Buying the two Caldera 10 subs was a great decision. They really bring out space in the music and provide solid tonal support for the Scouts. They are an incredible value for the money. The design is very space efficient as at least in my house real estate on the floor is at a premium. They are small for the results you achieve.

Good Company… they deliver

The best subwoofer in its price range. So glad I got mine. Didn't know what I was missing.

Exceptional value. Veri-Fi audio makes it a great time to be an audiophile as their products make the high end music experience available to everyone. These guys are the real deal - an asset to the audio art community. Thank you !
