What motivated my choice is that I have since early 2009 the pair of Monitor VL-A5.

I ordered this box before they can appreciate their true value monitors. as the product was new, it was late in coming (two months). meanwhile I appreciated the VL-A5. But I left the box next to me saying that a little low was not hurt.
I put that 7 because he deserved a larger diameter. it has no value added for owners of VL-A8 and those like me with VL-A5 can almost do without it. For the rest is very very good quality (amp, connections ...)

The purpose being to perfect the mix and therefore a good listener monitor.

SOUNDS

Still running, the curve is neutral

I personally have not connected as shown. they recommend connecting the sources L / R on the box, which sends the signal to monitors VL-A5.
but the signal is cut on the lower frequencies.
shame because the monitors allow this kind of possibility and the filter is configurable. as a result, no signals arrive at low monitor.

I then plugged the LF-S8 subwoofer output of an equalizer. I also tested the monitor output table. the result is the same.

but doing like this (ie without connecting the monitor to the box) I have a much better quality and bass on the monitor and further from the box.

no no I do not practice tuning Car. BOOM BOOM BOOM chee chee boumm

OVERALL OPINION

I recently. a slight regret for not really useful with the VL-A4 and even less with the VL-A8.

I'm still fine tuning.

ultimately, I could use the box JMLab home theater. Besides, I'll look for one of these 4. but there is not play in the same court

Report qual / price is right

make the election again ... For monitors VL-A5 YES! for housing can be I'll sell it and make me a pair of VL-A8
