! ! ! Absolutely Amazing Chime Box ! ! !
This is an absolutely amazing chime box that allows you to program different music to each doorbell and easily swap out music to go with the seasons if you so choose. Changing music is as simple as putting the micro SD card in your computer and dragging music into the proper folder. You can even drop multiple files for some randomness if you so desire. Overall volume can be adjusted with a dial inside the chime box and you can even add another external speaker and run the wire to another room. Installation for multiple old-school push button doorbells is incredibly straight forward. Installation for one video doorbell requires a Video Door Button Interface, a little four wire device that sits in between the doorbell and the chime box, which makes the install a little tougher but still pretty straight forward. Installing multiple video doorbells is where it gets interesting. You will need a Video Door Button Interface for each doorbell and the wiring, while not overly complicated, can get a bit messy. I highly recommend printing out the schematic (available on their website) and then tracing over each wire path in a different color to keep things straight. I also recommend using "Lever Wire Connectors" where the number of ports is (Number of doorbells + 2). There are even additional addons through their website for expanding the chime box to even more speakers and doorbells. Top it all off with great customer service! (less than a day for e-mail/messenger response in my experience)

You won't regret this purchase
I wanted a wired MP3 doorbell and after reading many reviews about poor speakers on other doorbells I decided on this one. When it arrived my first thought was that it looks like someone made it in their basement. The case seems to be made of some kind of press board painted white. It does seem sturdy though. Seeing that most doorbells are mounted high on the wall, the fact that it doesn't look the best is really not a big deal but I thought I'd mention it. To be fair though, a lot of other doorbells are just made of plastic so this case material is really no better or worse. Everything else about this doorbell is FANTASTIC. Great speaker. Great amp. Easy to program. Easy to install. I'd buy this doorbell a hundred times over and have told many people about it. I downloaded the "What's New Scooby Doo" theme song and after upping the decibels of the MP3 using Audacity (free audio edit software), it sounds great. The doorbell does have a volume control so if you are not familiar with Audacity, you can just turn up the volume on the amp if your mp3's have low sound. My kids can't wait for visitors so they can hear the doorbell. This is a diamond in the rough....nice job BCS!

Will not work with Vivint Doorbell
Bought the unit, and even with the "video doorbell interface" that the company sells it will not work with the Vivint video doorbell. Now this isn't the companies fault, I've come to find that Vivint stuff (even the zwave certified stuff) does not play well with anything else. The unit itself is amazingly well made. The electronics and soldering jobs are very well done, why I gave it 4 stars.

Superior quality and easy to install even with Ring
This is by far the best quality and superior chime on the market. I bought this because they said they are compatible with Ring Pro and I had been in Ring support hell for 5 months and had gone through 3 chimes trying to get the Ring Pro to work. This chime said they were compatible and supplied the needed board for Ring Pro. The installation of the unit and wiring was extremely easy and to my joy and relief it worked perfectly with Ron Pro from the moment it was installed. The software is not as web-based as many users are used to but it's easy to use once you're familiar with the layout. I haven't installed my own sounds yet but am looking forward to doing that. Setup of a secondary speaker was very easy and fast as well. Is you want a product that is superior in every way, THIS is the one you should choose!

Updated: can’t work w Ring
Updated 2022: I used this for years with the standard set of doorbell options. I never did figure out how to load custom sounds! Because of security concerns, we finally broke down and installed Ring cameras. After (literally and actually) spending hours on the phone with Ring technical assistance, we were unable to get it to work. Now it’s basically just a cover for the hole made for the old-style doorbell it replaced. Downgrading to one star based on a few years of slight, but consistent, disappointment and frustration. From 2017: I know this is a quality product, but using it/programming it has been much, much more complicated than I expected. In full disclosure, I haven't put a ton of time into it besides grabbing the instructions online, however, I keep putting off a deeper dive because it looks like it will require a lot of time. When my electrician installed the device, it had different chimes for each of our doors - and that was great. However, the chimes were so hokey (one featured cannon shots!) that the contractors working on our house couldn't resist activating the doorbell all day, every day. I attempted to change the front door chime, and somehow ended up resetting both doors to the same chime. unfortunately, that chime (bells) is LOOOONNNGGGGG.... People arrive, ring the bell. I can go to the door, open the door, and complete introductions before it's done. So, three stars because it's been complicated. On the plus side, the speakers are amazing and the quality of the sound is great. I am looking forward to using it during the holidays but right now I just need a short, plain-Jane chime. Wish that were easier.
