Review 1 of 7

Price Paid:  $200.00 from OnOff

Summary:
These speakers are very good. I chose between them and a pair of Gales. I chose these because the had more to give according to me. Not as much detail but really nice bass. But ofcouse, they play very detailed. And they were cheaper. I am very satisfied with them and I warmly recommend Audio Pro to other buyers because of the perfomance/price vaule is enormous.

Go to the store and by yourself a pair!

Strengths:
The way they sound when played very low, price and looks.

Weaknesses:
Don´t play too loud!

Review 2 of 7

Summary:
This is a really good speaker. And it´s not expensive either, for this quality it´s even CHEAP.

A2.42 LIVE sounds exellent! The sound is really open and filled with details. It goes deep in low freq. and have a really open high.

I agree with the other reviewers: A2.42 LIVE is not so good for techno/dance-music. A2.42 is just a bit laid-back and is not the kind of speaker that wants to show of it´s biceps all the time (tough it do has muscles). It´s not really bad playing this kind of music, but it´s just much better playing other kinds of music.

Otherwise these speakers are great allrounders: They are very good at classical/pop/rock and they really show their true nature playing jazz and acoustic and Nick Drake-ish kind of music.

Review 4 of 7

Summary:
I'm a 15 year old boy from Norway, and I bought these speakers as my second. I really listened to many speakers before I made my mind. For that price, I couldn't find anything better. The deep bass is the first thing you notice, it is rich an deep, but not o much of it. The midrage and tweeter sounds great, and is comfortable with a lot of details. Heavy and good build and easy to drive. Great!

Review 5 of 7

Summary:
Well I test-listened to these speakers couple of times before I bought them and here are few reasons why..They're extremely cheap compared to the performance. The sound (in my opinion) is clear and maybe too much bass, but not irritatively much. I like bass so these were great choice for me since they go to 28Hz (or so the specs say. I'll just say that they go low enough) I also bought these because a good subwoofer is hard to find in pricerange of under $200 :)
I'm satisfied with these one cannot expect too much from speakers this price, but still these are one of the best speakers in the pricerange.
They've earned the four stars I give em.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.

The Aural Symphonics Chrono b2 is more a study in contrasts than most cables. Chrono b2 refers to balanced version 2.
