Review: Amazing sound quality, especially for price!! - I had a different model eq and it started distorting and got very sensitive at power button. Took a chance at Boss since they've been around for a while. Best decision ever! The sound quality was quite surprising. Did a rush install to ensure functionality but after hearing it I can't wait to finish tuning system. Sounds amazing, can't beat price!
Review: OUTSTANDING !!! Simple Honesty about BOSS AUDIO - AWESOME ! The Boss AVA1210 is a superb EQ ! It's brought my entire Boss system to a whole new level of crystal clear clarity that is unbelievably spectacular ! I love every piece of my Boss system because it all works like a CHAMP ! I think Boss has EARNED every 5 STAR review and they have certainly earned my business because they have proven time after time that a high quality sound system doesn't have to cost a fortune ! The Customer Service Team is fantastic and always helpful in answering my questions. The secret to building a great system is easy. 1) Match your components (Buy the right amp for the right speakers) 2) Follow the wiring diagrams provided in your owners manual or look on-line for your unique system. 3) Always use the heaviest gauge wire whenever possible. 4) Grounding is always critical. Be sure to use heavy gauge wire on a clean chassis connection. 5) Kick back and enjoy your amazing Boss Audio System ! No, I'm not getting paid and I'm not getting a discount. I read reviews just like you and I wanted to share my experience. Hope it helps. Feel free to ask me any questions about my system and I'll try to help. Thank you.

It’s quiet I actually series the low end and high-end together to give me five filters, which then you have banding increases and decreases due to the fader options. I use an amplifier with a separate sub out for biamp,.It’s quiet I actually series the low end and high-end together to give me five filters, which then you have banding increases and decreases due to the fader options. I use an amplifier with a separate sub out for biamp, so the EQ is used for just the high-end. Nice piece for low amount of money. I believe it might be better than my planet. I may get another one or two.
