ZVOX 575 IncediBase Review

The ZVOX takes a different turn from SurroundBar to offer. While other small, plastic covers, which are really meant to be a wall mounted look, the ZVOX IncrediBase 575 is much, much bigger. Meant to be placed under one display, the 575 is great, built from MDF, and, oh yeah subs, sports integrated. Different? You bet.

The ZVOX IncrediBase 575 came in a large rectangular box with foam corners and two more U-shaped pieces of foam protecting the long side of the speaker. There is an additional field for accessories and cables with a set of RCA cables, a power cable and a remote control. The speaker was not damaged, although it was great, was not to move the box too heavy.

The ZVOX IncrediBase 575 in at 36″ W x 16.5″ D X 5″ H measured This is virtually unknown in the world of surround bars. In general, you find that you are practically forced wall mount surround bars. In all honesty, while the Most people have the firm intention of wall mounting your display, many end up on a stand. Depending on the height of your surround-bar and the positioning function of the IR receiver on the display does not, before be able to place many surround-bar on a cabinet a display. This is really of limited use some of the latest surround bars as difficult placement.

The IncrediBase 575 takes the opposite position and looks fit under most displays. According to the specs it is magnetically shielded so it should work with all displays – the legacy CRT Her parents are rock. However, there are some limitations, as the display of the base should not exceed 35 or 15 centimeters wide inchss or 140 pounds. This may restrict many CRTs to smaller sizes, but you should be able to accommodate many of the larger flat screens (ZVOX says up to 65″).

Around the back are two stereo analog RCA inputs and a subwoofer output. There is also the IncrediBase 575 HSD the same specs but adds digital connectivity and a few smaller models with similar analog inputs. It has a slot-type port is on the back with four rubber feet on the bottom. The front has an (apparently) non-removable grill. Behind the grille are five 3.5″ driver. They are three in the middle and placed one near the edges of the box. At the bottom of the box is two down firing 6.5″ woofer is protected by a metal grille Subwoofer tasks send. The box itself is big and bulky but not overly difficult. While it feels stable, it’s not like you need to invite a friend to move it. Most of the black box is wrapped in flat black vinyl with the two sides in high gloss. While the black surface should blend well in a dark room, seemed slightly mar the vinyl and light abrasions were pretty clear on closer examination. For this reason, if you place your ad on the top, we recommend it instead of him and slide down to the right place.

The remote control of ZVOX IncrediBase 575 is very, very easy to completely lacks backlighting and with common and bizarre designed buttons. At the top there are seven round buttons with four oval buttons at the bottom. At the top we have courage, power and auto on/off. While there, such as the Auto On/Off switch seems to be better than the amplifier, it is included on the remote control. Below this there are subwoofer and treble control up and down, which are oriented horizontally. The oval buttons below which are PhaseCue and Volume Up and Down, which is oriented in the traditional vertical arrangement. Since you’ll have to see light at the remote switch, perhaps targeting of controls will not be a problem.

Fit and finish of ZVOX IncrediBase 575 is decent if you have some rough edges in the vinyl-wrapped here and there can be remarkable. Inside the port (something most people never see the light of its location on the back of the unit) was a bit sloppy with extra adhesive. This means to make and interesting design choice – the port placement. Rear ports makes sense for aesthetic reasons, since you are not sure that a huge hole to the outside of your room. But a port usually needs space to breathe and the size of the IncrediBase 575 really kind of suggests that it would be pushed against a wall. We wonder whether a side-firing port could not have been better choice.

We opened the back of the ZVOX IncrediBase 575 by removing the amplifier. It was really the only part of the equipment that we could get access. We could not lattice with no possible damage to the device. Inside we could see clearly placed the backs of the 6.5-inch woofer and the back of the box, the front-firing driver. The front firing drivers were trapped in their own area and inaccessible. The bass that were clearly visible, had stamped baskets. It was a bit polyfil in the field between the top of the box and the back of woofers.The wiring to the drivers was wrapped in velvet to avoid noise caused by friction or vibration. The was a small toroidal transformer mounted in the center of the case. The housing was constructed from braced 1/2″ MDF. The reinforcement of this field is particularly important because it is not just inertia proves the field, but also for the display, which is actually placed on top to support.

Conclusion

If the SurroundBar for you? In the “pro” column, it is offers a much better bass response, even to know that value experienced listeners. The “base” part of the ZVOX 575 means that it may be the best option (or bad) for your specific situation. The real question however is the price. On the $ 700 price point, it has a lot of competition. In much of the material ZVOX they relate to the display as the feeding sound to IncrediBase 575. That makes perfect sense for us. This solution seems the most sense in places where receiver, DVD player and subwoofer are really impractical or even impossible. The sound stage and bass IncrediBase 575 the offers is very impressive even though surrounded the experience is less compelling. ZVOX has been offering a 30-day money-back-in to audition at home, they really trust in their product. We are pleased to see how this new type of SurroundBar is received.
