Review 1 of 53

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
This subwoofer is much better than my other 12 inch subwoofer. There are some aspects of bass sounds that small sized speakes (even with electronic enhancement) cannot reproduce. This subwoofer kicks...highly recomended. DSG, Musician / Recording Artist

Review 2 of 53

Price Paid:  $0.00 from London Drugs AVS

Summary:
This powered sub is absolutely powerful in every respect. I love it everytime I watch a movie. For music, it may be a bit on the boomy side but I bought it strictly for home theatre use and in that application it rivals subs over twice the price. This sub has tremendous output easily crushing the room its in. Watching movies has never been the same as proven by the opening explosion scene on the landing platform in SW ATOC. It provides bass you can feel from an 800 watt digital BASH amp and a strong 15 inch driver. I even modified it by installing a heavy duty spiral wound silver core cable between the amp and driver which provided more output at the extreme bottom end.

Strengths:
Seemingly unlimited and effortless power. Good construction quality. Totally controlled during Dolby digital and DTS movies.

Weaknesses:
None really to speak of.

Review 4 of 53

Price Paid:  $800.00 from London Drugs

Summary:
Absolutley Incredible Sub...paid $800 cdn. This sub is capable of knocking out your windows. I've broken many glasses an pictures with it. It is quite sensitive to positioning but that's pretty minor. If you want a sub that can't be beat under 1000 dollars buy this one. You won't be dissapointed.

Strengths:
POWER. Accuracy for a 15 inch is great if positioned proberly.

Weaknesses:
Needs carpet spikes or super glue on hardwood because it likes to dance around the floor.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

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.

The Aural Symphonics Chrono b2 is more a study in contrasts than most cables. Chrono b2 refers to balanced version 2.
