I've tested several Bluetooth enabled speakers recently but had a hard time to find something playing to my taste. Finally, I found the one that satisfy the tonality and the overall ability to play music. I've tested it with many music styles and can't be more happy. The representation is just right, the vocals are crystal clear, the image is great and opposed to any other Bluetooth speaker I've listened so far, the clarity and dynamics are simply amazing! Despite the elements proximity you can still hear a very good stereo if sitting relatively close to the speaker - 2-3 meters away.

Initially I've used the available Bluetooth connection and wasn't impressed that much, while switching to APTX-HD capable receiver which is connected using optical cable made a huge change!

Another point to mention, the speaker isn't playing too well in the corner or close to walls, it has to be positioned away from walls and preferably in an open space.

Overall impressions - well built, great looking speaker producing excellent sound!

I was looking for a sound system for a large back porch and pool area and gave it a shot. Couldn't be happier with it. Over three years of flawless performance and excellent sound. And it stays outdoors in a very humid environment.

After reading another review, I ordered the Chromecast
Audio WIFI adapter and utilizing the AUX mode the column and sound quality is the difference between night and day! I can’t play it over “20” (out of 40) on the volume display without complaints from the family to “please turn it down!” from the family

I GAVE A 3 STAR RATING ONLY BECAUSE THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE A PORTABLE BLUETOOTH SPEAKER. THAT SAID YOU CAN MOVE IT AROUND JUST NOT IN YOUR BACKPACK TO THE BEACH.

I have had this product for over 3 years. Still works with no issues. I use it as a TV speaker. So daily, heavy use is an accurate description. Do I wish it was louder? Of course. I also want a faster car, (would need more money for faster car) but at this price point, it is plenty loud. The thing doesn't move as it is the TVs main speaker. So I don't care about portability. But with 1000s of hours of use over the last 3 years, I can report this thing is reliable.I cannot find and correct frequency to clone the remote, so that is my drawback. Needing a remote just for volume is annoying, as it is not very big. Overall, great product.

AMAZING SOUND QUALITY!!!

I can’t stop listening to this speaker! I was able to find one used on Craigslist for half of what the sell for new and even at $499 full price this is a bargain! The Bose Accoustic Wave system is more than twice the price of this and the sound is second to none! I haven’t listened to my high end home system since I picked this up one week ago. I also recently purchased the RT 81 Fluance turntable and I am very happy with it as well! BUY THIS SYSYEM-YOU WONT REGRET IT FOR ONE MINUTE!!!!

So, you have been reading about how big it is? When picking this up by myself already out of the box and carrying it I was blown away at how heavy it was! Carrying it like a tire with my hands in the middle was the easiest way but unfortunately had an asthma attack and was lucky enough to have a rescue inhaler in my car! Once I got it home it was tough carrying it in but once it was plugged in it just took a few minutes to plug the antenna in and sync up the Bluetooth connection on my Apple XR. The sound is fantastic! The remote with its separate bass and treble keep my happy because of the simplistic design and ease of operation in the dark. I am constantly adjusting them due to my personal preference and the led display although seems a little outdated is big enough to read accros the room with no difficulties. The magnetic cover (mine is black ash btw) is easily removed to show the smartly placed speakers in the cabinet. I like the cover on and off! My wife has not complained although i think after all the equipment i bring in and out ofthe house she has just given up! It sound beautiful and although it wont shake the windows like some reviewers said, it is still plenty loud. I was lucky enough to purchace for just 1/2 of the retail price for only $250 and I drove from Mass to RI to pick it up. I have had it for almost 1 week and i cant stop listening to it! I just ordered Chromecast Audio as requested by others to make the sound quality enhanced via a WiFi connection. I truly cant imagine it getting better. I have currently a pair of Anthony Gallo Reference 3.1s along with a pair of Sonus Faber Concertino bookshelf speakers powered by a 250wpc Carver amp and i havent turned them on but for only a few times in the last week of owning the Fi70. I jusg recently purchased a Fluance RT81 turntable and i am going to next try feeding the turntable into the unit via the AUX input and see how it sounds. Thanks for reading this review and if you have the room, spend the $500 and buy this unit.You wont be dissapointed, that i can promise you!Thanks Dave

First time I didn't buy a Bose system and couldn't be happier with this unit.

Amazing speaker to a audio freak like me quality durability and also style amazing peace of art

My friend bought these and I bought Rockville speakers....I was robbed and these are the ones I should bought. These are crisp and great low end. The Rockville have static and noise. Buy these instead you'll love them

Very impressed with the sound quality of this speaker. It is stylish and a conversation starter for sure. It has plenty of volume and bass fo fill several large rooms.

I like my music to hit me in the face, I can say it does that! Amazing what a pair of 8inch subs can put out when engineered properly, and the mids and hi's cut right through. Love this speaker, if I had to knock anything it would be that I can't pair 3 more and bring down the house!

I'd recommend that Fluance go after the soundbar market b/c the Fi70 blows away my Harmon Kardon SB16 that I have hooked up in another room. I've seen reviews suggest a 10-hour burn in for the bass to evolve but my unit was sounding really solid for the low end right outta the box. Would purchase another one if I had a place to put it. Also, the design is slick enough to house the remotes in the cut-out middle section - smart actually.

One thing is certain... Fluance doe's not believe in ripping off the consumer, they're giving you more than what you pay for. I'm not a company shill, just a hard working sob that hit the jackpot on a $500 gamble. This speaker will melt your face, warm your heart and get the cops called on you, depending on how you roll. Follow the instructions and do the proper 'break-in' period. They should've named it 'young Mike Tyson', because you'll be floored in an instant. Ultra high quality sound system, priced for poor working schlep's to enjoy. Get off the fence and get your plastic out right now, if you're looking for an insane deal, on a ridiculously sick speaker system. ¥ou gotta hear this thing!!
