Customers are mixed about the quality of the speakers. Some mention that Scosche makes quality stuff, while others say that they are unimpressed with the quality, find it easy and reliable, and that the output is paltry. The plastic housing is kind of weak and the amplifier is essentially working too hard to amplify frequencies you don't even want to go to.

Customers are mixed about the durability of the speakers. Some mention that the line level outputs are adjustable, while others say that the small white gain dials broke off within seconds of being used. The sound quality is very good, and the adjustability allows you to really dial in your sub. However, some customers say that both the gain control knobs broke within seconds and that the two little gain dial tops fell off when the enclosure barely closes.
"...Keep that in mind as you decide what you need. Also, the small white gain dials broke off within seconds of being used, rendering that function..." Read more

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2023
This was a great way to get 1 cable over to my sub from my receiver that lacked a subwoofer out.
I twisted and soldered the speaker wires and the leads from this unit (after testing it all) and then ran a y connection (RCA) to a 25 foot long subwoofer cable.
Works like a charm.
I will say that it worked well before the gain dials broke off. The volume on the amplifier had to be at 80% to get a medium level output. If you're fine with that then I recommend this product. Just never touch the gain controls. Ever. Look at it wrong, and it will break.
Believe the 1-star reviews about the gain controls breaking easily. They replaced cheap reliable metal screws with cheap unreliable plastic flaky ones.
Also, beware of purchasing from DiscountCentralOnline. They mixed up my replacement, which I had to pay for to send it back to them. In short, the cost was the same as the product and am now out that amount of money with nothing to show for it. They were quite courteous however, which I appreciated.
There is virtually no technical information about this unit on the web or otherwise, and certainly nothing as to its specifications.
The heart of this unit is a TY-145P audio transformer which has a published specification of 200Hz to 15KHz, of course I wish I knew that ahead of time.
Using my test equipment I did some measurements for which I will share with others.
Testing with my HP8903B audio analyzer I found that it has a measured 3dB bandwidth of 130Hz to 74KHz and a gain of -16dBV. -16dBV is a good target for 4:1 step-down in signal levels. It has a 0.18%THD at 1KHz no weighting.
At 20Hz the loss is -13dBref, and at 50Hz it is -7dBref. (dBref is -16dBV) so -13dBref is really -29dBV.
If you plan to use this for any full range audio, it will not be fully satisfactory. The real problem is that there is very few devices that will support full range audio. The companies that make the best audio transformers are Jensen Transformers in California, Lundahl in Sweden, and as a second choice perhaps Hammond.
I plan on changing the transformer to a JT-6110K-B from Jensen. Then I will have 0.15Hz to 150KHz response. Used you can find a pair of them for $50, which is way better than paying $200 for them new.
Overall this unit does what it is supposed to, but could of benefited from a better choice in transformer.

When I first received this product I managed to drop it on the floor and thought I broke it but the top plastic cover just came off, it popped right back on and no problems. I've had it installed to a pair of 6x9's for about a month now and its been great!
