Value For Money : Excellent
How long have you use it?
4 months

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
Manufacturing quality. The sound quality and the high-pass which allows to "unclog" my satellite speakers filter.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
One model, the Bose L1 box associated with the system II.
And also many other big subs on different scenes that I do not have the details, but that is not to be compared £.

How would you rate the quality / price? Good, quality is at the rendezvous.

With experience, you do again this choice? ... Yes, without hesitation.

I used to sound in a North Stage 2 keyboard. Prior to the acquisition of the sub, only good headphones allowed me to appreciate the tonal resources of NS2, I was frustrated with speakers alone. Now, without even having changed satellites, the same sat + sub allow me to find "outdoors" rich soundscapes Swedish keyboard.

To get the sound right for me, I sat in equal positions the speakers to max out the treble and bass on mini (there are only Low and High on these models). I place on the sub Xover 120Hz. Max volume on the sat (outside). Volume on the third scale for 705AS. And there is ecstasy! First time I get to listen without headphones a piano or EP worthy of the name.
I can not imagine what it will when I can add to the Sub 310A from the same manufacturer.

A small defect there permanently as tiny explosions (noise made at low frequencies) that agree when the sub receives no useful signal. It does not bother me for that matter. If it does not not breath, almost.
It would have been helpful if the AC outlet (male) is controlled by the switch. Thus, there would be a button in order to turn on all the speakers. But it is a very small detail.
