"Not only was the little Velodyne the best small sub I've ever used, it was one of the very best subs I've used." -John Potis SoundStage!, April 2002 "The SPL-1200 was able to hit an impressively deep 16 Hz." -Tom Noussaine Sound & Vision, June 2001 "How do they get this kind of bass out of such a tiny box? Deep, tight, tuneful and loud enough to rattle pictures on the wall--this is serious subwoofing." -Robert Deutsch Stereophile Guide to Home Theater, September 1998 Velodyne Acoustics, Inc. 34
