Their S803 bookshelf speaker setup is sleek-looking, powerful, and highly versatile. Modern design and functions, at first glance, have generated some excitement in the industry. Let’s take a deeper look into what Jamo has to offer. Design and Features The speakers in this article all fall into one of the above three categories. We need to break down basic signal flow through a HIFI-type system to understand these configurations with their inherent advantages and disadvantages.

At What Hi-Fi? we have state-of-the-art testing facilities in London, Reading and Bath where, as a team of audio experts, we review of hundreds of products every year, including one of the most prolific hi-fi products of all – bookshelf speakers.As for sound reproduction capabilities, the bigger brother of the Q150B speakers can reach a higher output volume, up to 110dB, and replicate a frequency range of 63Hz-28kHz. A greater power amplifier rating is required, 15-120W. However, this is to be expected from the greater power consumption of the Q350 bookshelf speakers. KEF has introduced a damped tweeter loading tube to smooth out harsh high-end frequencies, and refined crossover system technology allows for tighter and more accurate bass response. Unwanted resonant frequencies have effectively been eliminated due to the repositioned woofer port. Conclusion For installations not using existing furniture or wall mounts, a very important factor is the type of speaker stands you choose. For one thing, you’re going to want your speakers to be at the ideal height for your ears when you’re in a sitting position. For another, a substantial stand can help ensure that the sound of your speaker gets transferred efficiently. A good stand can also look great with the rest of your furniture. Installing a sound system for your home theater doesn't have to be complicated. A pair of WiFi bookshelf speakers complements your home theatre system from Sonos. They fill up the room and allows you to create the right atmosphere at home. One of our favorite audio developers, KEF, has released a powerful premium speaker set designed for those who aim to take their home entertainment to the next level. Modern design and features, coupled with innovative speaker technology and incredible sound reproduction capabilities, warrant the relatively high price of this speaker system. Design and Features

Capable of reproducing frequencies between 51Hz and 20KHz, Edifier’s R1280Ts bookshelf speakers are perfect for home theater, office, bedroom, or lounge usage. I’d recommend these speakers for anything music, film, radio/podcast, or sports-related. The R1280Ts come fitted with equalization controls on the side panel, where you can adjust bass, treble, and master volume to the output stage of the speakers, effectively fine-tuning the sound characteristics to your liking. The ability to connect more than one source device is a handy feature. The extra subwoofer output allows for great versatility for those looking to enhance the low-end response of their bookshelf speakers. ConclusionMost configurations employ a main bass/mid frequency driver paired with a separate tweeter handling high frequencies. However, some manufacturers choose to house the tweeter in the centre of the main driver to improve dispersion and imaging and make positioning easier and more versatile. First, our source component is the electronics that receive your signal in various forms such as Aux, USB, CD, Radio Frequency, or Bluetooth. These might be PMC's entry-level standmounts, but they sound anything but (and they're not exactly cheap, either). That's hardly surprising – they're measured and listened to alongside the firm's reference models, and feature the same 27mm soft dome tweeter and 13cm mid/bass driver taken from models further up the company’s line. Starting with the design, Klipsch continues to use their tried-and-true bass-reflex cabinet with rear-firing Tractrix™ port to help improve bass response while reducing port noise, for solid and dynamic bass performance. The ebony finish on our listening models had a simple and neat appearance that would probably fit into just about anyone’s home decor. What’s neat about Klipsch’s finish is that it’s a furniture-grade ebony vinyl which can help reduce scratches from appearing on your speakers. If you prefer a more natural look, a walnut finish is also available. A protective grille is held in place by magnets for a sure fit every time. If you remove the grille, you’ll see the 1” titanium diaphragm tweeter that’s loaded into a Tractrix™ horn for better imaging and an improved soundstage. Below the tweeter, you’ll find the copper-colored 6.5” Cerametallic™ cone woofer that delivers terrific midrange and midbass response.
