Good points. IF the Dayton was a better choice "for a little more", that's around $60(on sale). "For a little more" the RSL 10e might be the better choice. If I recall, the RSL 10e is made...

Try upping the input level and/or using a splitter cable if it has stereo in.

RSL 10E is the one to get when it is back in stock if you can wait. Nothing else is that good for 300ish.

The SW-15 I just bought at 50% off is disappointing at best. And it arrived used from monoprice. Oh, and the one star review I left on their site yesterday? Gone. Of course YMMV.
