Power @ Value

Mounted it in a closed in location, added a cooling fan/ventilation, performance is top notch. The sub woofer controls and frequency adjustments provide powerful and quality sound output. Will by another for my next system and recommend it to others looking for a powerful sound at a reasonable price.
