There's always ChatGPT to answer these questions:

<sarcasm> Ubiquiti product and not PoE? No thanks! </sarcasm> Ubiquiti is an odd company, why would they even launch an audio product, seems so out of place for them.

It's tough to gauge what's out there since the measurements for this kind of speaker are rare. RTings look to be where they review/measure most of them. They did the best portable BT speakers for 2024; a JBL took the top spot: https://www.rtings.com/speaker/reviews/best/portable

Perhaps the KEF LSX II LT? They look pretty darn good, and measure quite well and in your price range

So this would be a competing product to Dirac Bass Control? Or are there differences in what it is trying to achieve?

Yes, I did not want to share pics before sending them to Alan, to give him a chance to go through it first and not add noise to the conversation by posting online, but now that it is solved I guess it's not that bad to share it. Here's a pic of one of the speakers, both had the same issue.

Just an update on my issue: The TL;DR version is that I sent back my speakers to March and they are on their way back to me. The more nuanced response is that the whole process was not smooth. Not horrible, but not great as well. The positive is that overall Alan was always straight to the...

If the Wiim Ultra functioned as a DAC (when plugged into a computer), had at least 2 sub outs, plus had TRS/XLR I/O (as well as the current RCA) it would be pretty much the sweet spot for most of the market. As the other posters here said, I would much rather have the amp section separate.

I gather you did not read the article right? They explain that it comes from Greek and some other nonsense marketing storytelling...

Perhaps Geithain fits the bill, they have active and passive 3 way loudspeakers, some with 10" woofers and most of them kinda are bookshelf sized? Maybe I am stretching the term too thin (or tall?), the 10" woofer ones are 1m tall so.... https://www.me-geithain.de/en/passiv-lautsprecher.html

Interesting that no one suggested the Shibata version of the AT-VM95. I love it, easily my favourite stylus, but I have not tried the ML version, so I can't compare the two.

It may be useful to people like me, where we have multiple devices with a 12V trigger input that we would like to trigger from one source. In the past, I used those cable splitters, which worked but were ugly and couldn't scale to too many outputs before looking like an octopus. I discovered...

My Sointuvas (bought in 07/22) also developed cracks, but way less dramatic as yours and they are in the front of it, originating (or ending, I suppose) at the woofer and tweeter screws. I contacted Alan today in regards to this, hopefully it gets sorted without too many hassles for both...

Oh boy, they look CHUNKY! I was considering buying a set but the depth alone looks to be a no no for my living room

Usually that's an additional speaker for Atmos home theater setups.

I would check out the JBL 308P (~ $395 per speaker). They hiss a bit when around a meter from them, but you get used to it, and the performance/price is unbeatable here in AUS in my opinion. That would free you from buying an amplifier and it would give you some features like bass/treble shelving.

As a fellow owner of the HD-25 II for about 15 years, I can safely say that this thing will survive a nuclear apocalypse easily, the only thing left will be these headphones and cockroaches.

I just wish Tidal had a better UI/UX like Spotify's, I discover so many artists and music through Spotify but would love to use Tidal as my main streaming platform

MKR I have to commend you on your politeness and willingness to respond to every poster in this thread (which I assume you also will do the courtesy to me) with such grace and aplomb. I never have seen you be aggressive or nasty to any person in this forum, which by all accounts is nothing short...

I have the original Sointuva (in Melbourne) and I am super pleased with it, but if/when Alan decides to do an active tower with the new Purifi tweeter, I would buy it as soon as available as that would be my end game speaker for sure.
