Perfect at This Price Point Review by Jersey Dave
Although it is not a Tiny Box, it is very small for what it can do, and it has a very well balanced sound.
It is actually quite sharp looking, and at this price point to get a real sub, that performs this good, is asking a lot. Velodyne once again has both the Look and Sound of a Real Sub, at a price point that no one should be afraid of.
Unless you have a very large room, or expect to be able to knock down the walls, this will do the trick for the great majority of listeners. And the myth that a sub that sounds strong for home theater; and yet still does music justice, cannot be done on a budget is proven wrong by this great performer.
