Review 1 of 10

Price Paid:  $120.00 from ubid.com

Summary:
Hi, I must agree with most reviewers, especially Bill who bought his for $116. However, I was a little disappointed when I first got it. I call audiosource and they say to play with the frequency. Well now it sounds boomy unlike the muddy of before. I just read about the insulation for the inside of the cabinet. I am happy without the insulation and will be happier with. I recommend this product. Velodyne (model?) sounds great but they cost $500+. This is the cost of my entire system (sort of speech). The SW-12 won't disappoint you. The sound coming out of this sub is not cheap at all.

Strengths:
RCA or speaker-wire hole. sounds great. price: $120 shipped. Come on!!! works fine, again sound great.

Weaknesses:
down firing, no insulation

Summary:
this sub is so powerful at 200 watts I have the crossover and level knob at the halfway point.the sound comes to life as its bass is totally distorted and has never malfunctioned.this sub is a bonus and is the heart of any reciever.

Strengths:
crossover and level knobs let you determine the power you need from humble to thunderous bass

Weaknesses:
the grill broke of the face

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
