Ease of Use : 9
Product was very easy to set up. The manual could be a little clearer on the all the connects. Came with every cable I needed. I did not need to purchase anything seperately. I wish it had an option to bolt it to the bottom of a 4 leg chair. The unit is designed for a drum throne or center pole office chair.

Sound Quality : 6
It added a loud 60 cycle hum into my headphones. I tried the ground loop isolator and that didn't help. I am a guitar player and was looking to use it when recording at home in my office. Not gonna happen...

Reliability : No Opinion
I haven't owned it very long, no opinion yet.

I bought this unit in hopes of putting on my heads phones and rocking out in my office without bothering anyone else in the house. It woke up my wife on the other side of the house and put a loud hum in the heads phones. It came with a ground loop isolator, but that didn't help at all. I am disappointed because I will not be able to record with this because the hum will end up on the recording. With that said, I am impressed with how it feels. If I was in a practice session with in-ear monitors I would love this thing but the advertisement of playing games in your dorm room with headphones, implying that you will not bother anyone is bogus. I bought it on sale and would recommend for other uses at that price, but it doesn't work for my use case.
