"If you know subwoofers, you know about Velodyne."

-Corey Greenberg
Home Theater Technology/February 1995
Face Off: Comparison of five subwoofers

"...the HGS-10 can be used in settings where a larger, more conventional
subwoofer would be unacceptable. In addition, its performance is good
enough that it's worth considering even if space is not an issue. Just be
prepared to watch your friends' jaws drop when you tell them the bass
they're hearing is coming from that little box."

-Robert Deutsch
Stereophile Guide to Home Theater/September 1998

"In general, the Velodyne (HGS-12)  could play slightly louder, and often
cleaner, than the Sunfire."

"The Velodyne HGS-12 was an excellent performer whose output and bass
extension were competitive with those of much larger subwoofers. With its
compact size, sturdiness, good looks, and low distortion, it warrants serious
consideration."

-D.B. Keele, Jr.
