You will experience better low frequency definition and a more natural sounding bass.The Synergistic Research Black Box dimensions are 9.5 inch x 9.5 inch x 8 inch (WxDxH), weight is 9 lbs.

"...with The Black Box in my system, the bass response was clearly better in all ways but the magic really occurred in the midrange and high frequencies. The improvement in soundstage was undeniable with each recording displaying a greater sense of depth … the music sounded liberated in a way while percussion instruments displayed a faster transient response. 'Synergistic' is one word I would use to describe the combination of SR HFTs, Atmosphere, FEQ and Black Box working together in my listening room to eliminate the negative impact of my listening room. The Black Box is a must have component if you really want to hear your system at its full potential..."
Dr. David W. Robinson, Editor-in-Chief, Positive Feedback, November 2015:
"...when the Black Box was added, well, damn me ears! The bass did seem to lock in, becoming more precise and more focused, all at the same time. We confirmed this by having Peter move the Black Box out (Rats! Bass improvement lost!) and back in again (Yes!). There was no doubt about the gains that the Black Box offered…that bloody thing had to stay..." the entire review.How to setup it up in your listening room:
