An aesthetically beautiful speaker with a sonic signature that closely follows the neutrality line, but adds a dose of ‘get up n’ go’ to proceedings. Impeccably built with possibly the best single-point concentric driver currently on the market.
it is now almost impossible to find a decent new name brand amplifier for less than £100, let alone a pair of quality speakers. The P12s are a genuine hi-fi loudspeaker at a bargain price.
2 Designed as an entry to serious hi-fi listening, targeted toward a younger audience with a strong focus towards digital listening in lifestyle systems.
For home listening, the S2000s continue Edifier’s excellent track record with superlative acoustic and electronic design, a vast array of inputs, stylish aesthetics and great sound.
1 An innate musicality that will delight, whatever you play.
2 Plentiful dynamics and detail, huge scale and excellent imaging make this another excellent speaker in Fyne’s F300 range.
4 when old Tannoy talent regroup and launch a new name and fresh ranges designed from the ground up, there is certainly reason to get excited. If this is what the company can produce on a budget, I look forward to auditioning their more upmarket models.
Great looking, well made, well specified and lovely to listen too. That’s the Edifier S2000 Pro summed up in a nutshell.
2 Their price and size places them in a segment of the market where there is a great deal of competition, but they compare very favourably to models far beyond their price.
10 If you’re after plenty of inputs, smart aesthetics and convenience features with better sonics than the average one box solution, these are worth a look. For no compromise audio performance, look elsewhere.
10 Truly excellent both physically and sonically and packing quality components into a pair of compact enclosures, the S880s represent real value for money. Highly recommended.
If you like hugely over-emphasised bass and little else, these are the speakers for you. For the rest of us who favour neutrality or musicality, these are not contenders; especially at the price.
Truly terrific speakers, from which music flows with apparent ease. If you’ve got a little space and don’t mind the retro looks, these big Tannoys are truly deserving of their fine heritage and pride of place in your music system.
Tannoy have created a giant killer here, the XT8 is a truly wonderful speaker.
While some may prefer the style and sound of a traditional ‘boxy’ speaker, there’s no doubting that these are an extremely capable option for those who prefer a little more style on their desktop. They’re well made, unusually styled and are sonically capable.
2 Edifier’s R2000DB is a budget speaker with impressive build, a decent array of features and superb sonics.
a pair of Mercury V4s formed the basis of my first true hi-fi system, at the time fronted by Yamaha amplification and a vast array of source components. Components came and went, though the V4s remained the one common denominator for many years. The mercury 7.4 takes everything that made the Mercury range great and improves upon it in every area.
Fun, musical, easy to partner and engaging across the board, these Eclipse Three speakers are something of a bargain in quality audio.
Despite their minor deficiencies, the Aego3s will delight anyone serious about their audio.
A beautifully crafted pair of speakers with a neutral but likeable sonic character.
The Yamaha WX-030 is a desktop speaker incorporating advanced streaming capabilities and compatible with the Yamaha MusicCast multi-room audio system.
