Product Description

The ZVOX 315 Sound Console is compact, unobtrusive and really simple to use. It uses high quality speakers and amplifiers - and includes a built-in powered subwoofer for thunderous bass. Created by renowned speaker designer Winslow Burhoe, the ZVOX 315 uses a remarkable three-speaker design and PhaseCue technology to create remarkably wide sound. Play music on the 315 and you'll think you're listening to a big system with speakers 10 feet apart. Play a movie and the sound effects literally surround you. ZVOX systems are so simple to hook up and use, you can get one connected and working in minutes. Just plug it into your TV, PC, radio, CD player, iPOD or MP3 player and listen. It's anti-complicated.

4 out of 5 stars ZVOX315.......2007-03-26

Great sound quality. Installation was simple. Just wish it had a remote as some TVs don't have an internal mute/switching option.

1 out of 5 stars Great sound - but only briefly.......2007-03-20

After reading a rave in Stereophile magazine about the 315, I had to hear it. I, too was impressed by the clarity of the midrange (some think it to be too prominent), the extended bass (with a nice subwoofer control), and the relative ease of setup. The PhaseCue is a phasey gimmick with which some listeners will be fascinated and others distressed. That's fine - if you're like me, you'll sijmply turn it off (just like that "wide" function on your computer's media player).

Feed this box a clean signal from any analog sorce, and you will likely be impressed with its sound. But enjoy it for only a fleeting moment, because it is probably going to stop working, just as mine did. I sent mine back (while under warranty) and received a replacement unit (probably a refurbished/repaired unit from stock). I powered it up, rejoiced in the sound, used it for a while and set it aside for a short time. I took it out the other day and ... well, deja vu, the thing doesn't work again. I have received no response from customer service yet (I'm waiting for the "send us the unit and $65 and we'll send you another repaired unit that will work briefly" response).

It's too bad. This is a nice niche product that has the potential to fit seamlessly into many non-audiophile/videophile systems and still provide audiophile/videophile quality. But folks, it doesn't. It just isn't reliable.

4 out of 5 stars Good Sound Suuplement.......2007-01-04

This product does the job it claims to do .. supplements the normal speaker system of my large TV. I turn it on and off manually instead of leaving it on all the time .. because of that I find that I seldom use it .. but that is my choice. The system works and it is there when I want it.

5 out of 5 stars Great Sound In Small UnCluttered Package.......2006-12-24

Note that this review is for the ZVOX mini because Amazon has no product space for it.

I have owned the ZVOX Mini for about a year now. We use it for our TV sound system as well as to feed CD Players and iPods into.

For $200 this little box is amazing. It is smaller than the ZVOX 315 (check it out on ZVOX webpage) but the sound is big and full. You get a carrying case, a power brick, two 1/8 inch inputs, a remote, and two knobs on the front for volume and "tone".

Having heard the Bose and also seen the $500 price all I can say is that this little box is about 90% of the Bose sound quality for 40% of the price. Not only that but there is no moving parts to wear out (e.g. Bose CD player) and cause the whole unit to become dysfunctional.

ZVOX decided to do one thing and do it well. Hence their products consist only of is only amplified speakers and nothing more.

Oh yea, and the bass is pretty darn good. My one complaint about the Bose is that yes, it provides sonic clarity in many frequency ranges, but the Bass was a little weak and there was no way to tweak it. The ZVOX does have a way to play with the "tone" to increase bass and it is just as good at providing bass as the Bose.

So there you have it.

Highly recommended.....

5 out of 5 stars Excellent product and remarkable service.......2006-08-13

This unit has worked flawlessly for more than 8 months, running every day in the evening. It is a perfect solution for small to medium size rooms, and the quality of sound surpasses any of the products in this price range, including and in particular the highly promoted Bose so-called "portable". I have had a few questions, which were answered promptly and in surprising detail by email. I don't know any other company who have been so personally responsive, and actually had competent answers - something that's becoming increasingly hard to find with typical vendors with outsourced help desks.

Thank you zvox - great product.
