It does look interesting. I saw a review where I guy used it on a Honda Goldwing, so maybe it would be useful on a Boom Box. I suspect a good flash would still be necessary but from what I understand a line out converter is usually needed in those cases. If I were in that boat I'd be tempted to try this little Kicker unit.

The documentation seems pretty good as well.

I am with you on the flash, but from I understand while the flash helps flatten, it's still not 100%. I think this helps take the guesswork out of using a traditional DSP. The other thing is with the available 10V output to RCA, that alone seems like it could be more beneficial than a SNI-15. I may have to try this thing out.
