    • It does the job it is intended to do...no more, no less.

In order to record the transmissions from my SDS100 scanner directly to my computer, I must use the scanner's 3.5mm phone jack. However, by using the phone jack, I can no longer hear the transmissions through the scanner's internal speaker. Therefore, I needed an inexpensive external speaker. Uniden offers three choices of non-amplified speakers and the BC15 is the middle model. It's a 15-watt speaker which isn't particularly powerful but does the job for which it was designed. I use the speaker within my home and it has suitable volume and clarity for that environment. If you're looking for an external speaker to use in your car or truck or in a noisy environment, this will probably not be loud enough for you and you should go with an externally-powered amplified speaker instead. Do not be turned off by the few negative reviews of this item. Most of those reviews were written by people who clearly expected more from this speaker than it was designed and marketed to do. As I said before, the BC15 does the job it is meant to do. It's just a plain, inexpensive, no-frills external speaker that has good volume and clarity. ... show more

A bit disappointed in the level of volume. I have had speakers smaller in size that have a much higher level, meaning that if it’s at max volume it’s to loud. This speaker on max is in need of more volume.

    • This speaker works great you just have to plug it the right type of jack!
Style: Speaker Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I have seen a few posts with people saying they plugged it in to their scanner and the volume is way low. Here is what they are doing wrong. If you are buying this to use on a handheld scanner and plugging it into the earphone jack it will be very, very, very, low volume because an earphone jack DOSE NOT have the power to make the speaker work! A earphone jack only puts out enough power for a set of earbuds!! You need an amplified speaker if you're plugging into an earphone jack. I have a Uniden BCD536HP and when I plug this speaker into the front HEADPHONE jack the sound output is at a whisper at best. BUT on the back of the scanner there is an EXTERNAL SPEAKER jack and when you plug it into something that meant to power a speaker WOW nice and LOUD! The jack in the back puts out 5 watts of power and the headphone jack only puts out 4mW(milliwatt) of power. So here is another way to look at this. It takes 5000 milliwatts to = 5 watts or in my case the 4mW works out to be 0.004 watts and that's why this speaker will not work if you're plugging it into a headphone jack! ... show more

I bought two one is hooked up to a Uniden bct15x on the rear external speaker 3.5mm, the volume is loud and clear, build quality on the speakers are really nice doesn't fill like a toy real rugged, accents look nice and match up with radio's the second radio is a rare Uniden bc370crs it doesn't have a dedicated external speaker 3.5mm like the bct15x but has a 3.5mm headphone port so I was iffy if it was gonna work turns out it works pretty good it doesn't have as much volume as the bct15x but its plenty loud for me and my radio setup. ... show more

This is probably my favorite speaker to use with my police scanners. There are cheaper options out there that provide decent quality but none of them compare to this one. Highly recommend for anyone starting to get into the “listening to the police scanner” hobby.

    • Sound quality

The overall construction of this product is sturdy and solid, the only issue i have is the audio quality, i went from a factory peterbuilt external speaker to this unit because the factory speaker was at my left ear and i wanted something to be in front and center of me, this was able to be located as i wanted easily but the sound quality isn’t good at all, if i turn the volume up the sound gets worse, i drive local so when i talk to the people i talk with everyday the voices are unrecognizable, maybe 15 watts isnt enough, but other than that its a descent product ... show more
