Product Description
The Acoustic Research Brand (AR) has been synonymous with quality sound for over 50 Years. Founded in 1952 by audio pioneer, writer, inventor researcher and audio-electronics teacher Edgar Villchur and his student Henry Kloss, the company soon grew into a major force in the sound industry. In 1956, the company was granted it's first patent for the air suspension woofer that solved the problem that affected all loudspeakers at that time... bass distortion. That development led the way to a host of o

1 out of 5 stars NOT WORTH THE MONEY (even when you want to like it)   September 30, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I really wanted this to work. I read the first reviewer and decided to ignore his criticisms. After all - how bad could it be? Well, Reviewer #1
is 100% correct. I gave it a fair try, the result: I guarantee you'll want to send this back.
So, save yourself return shipping fees and buy a different product.
Pros: I was excited before I hooked it up.
Cons: Annoying hum, low quality sound, remote is cheap with low range, also I am out $16+ for return ship.
My real rating is a negative 0.5. (and I'm not that picky)

This was a complete waste. It's nothing but a fancy amplifier and not a good one either. The max the volume goes to is 50 and the the so-called woofer sucks. I had better results with my sony stereo and an old computer sub-woofer hooked to the tv. So much for the clock but I like to power off and unplug everything at night. The only thing it's got going for it is the blue led display. I should've checked up on this. It's made by AudioVox which sells their shi...stuff in CVS. Over all it should sell for $99 or below not what I shelled out. Save your money.

For it's package size I was not impressed to have it left at my door not requiring signature. I'll think twice about ordering 'large' items from Amazon.
