Erin's IKEA SYMFONISK Lamp Speaker Review

[SpinifexV]

Well, since nobody seems to have posted this, Erin's Audio Corner reviewed the IKEA Sonos Lamp here: https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/ikea_symfonisk_lamp/

Since we needed a lamp, I actually managed to convince my GF to get one for our bedroom!

Well, to be a speaker in a lamp did not look so bad with Erin's results.

Are you happy with the lamp?

Tip:

Sound, HiFi related products from Ikea

There are a few miscellaneous from Ikea. Seems interesting. Anyone have/ tested Sound, HiFi related products from Ikea? Experiences?:) Example: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/gunnlaug-sound-absorbing-curtain-white-60500170/ https://www.ikea.com/us/en/cat/cable-management-accessories-16195/...

Or satisfied, with the lamp that is, is perhaps a better word.

Can you hear a difference in SQ with the light on vs off ?

Music can create pleasure, which..I would continue on that track.It was inevitable that associations like that would emerge.

Pretty good but still not the #1 answer.

Probably because it's a step too far. "reviewing" an Ikea table lamp speaker. What's next? Shall we review a Barbie bluetooth speaker too?

What about a Thomas the Tank Engine bluetooth speaker?

I'll send a pair of these to Amir to review, what do you think?

Not Hifi directly, but fun.
Though you are right, what is it really that to reviewing. A test should really only say if there is sound or not. Reviewing, that is, checking FR and distortion levels?! But Erin did it just as a fun thing.
Curiosity is a good trait, as long as curiosity did not kill the lamp.

Or not, hm I'm a little split. Would Erin's test affect my purchase of such a lamp in itself, regarding the sound? I do not know.

Maybe this would work as a rear speaker in a home theater:

Great review. I think his conclusion is spot on.

With the light on, the sound was a bit bright. With it off, dark and moody

Oh Dear. Lego speakers. Judging by the picture, with some other lego creations, I think he might be serious.

I like this one better- it has a vintage amplifier sound to it.

 

[Laserjock]

The on wall art one had already been reviewed…

 

[RickSanchez]

I’m still waiting for the Kohler Moxie (by Harman Kardon) to be reviewed …

Lego + some broadband elements = Some fun little project together with the kids.


... or if I may be honest, for oneself. You can always blame the children when you are childish. ...Computer speakers?

Add one of this for tube sound.
