  1. Versatile setup 2 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    Thoroughly enjoying my RT85 turntable with the Ai61 speakers! I’m in the process of collecting classic and important jazz vinyl and the sound has been totally satisfying. The Bluetooth paring has been flawless and allows me lifelike streaming sound for my personal practice and enjoyment.

  2. Very nice, good sound, loud clear with base 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    I was hesitating between Fluance and Kanto and decided to go with Fluance as they had more base according to lots of reviews. I'm very happy with it. They have a very clear sound, are loud and bigger than the Kanto YU6.i'm very happy with these speakers and at this price, difficult to find better than Fluance or Kanto.

  3. Should come with a few extras, but it lacks. 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    The sound quality is very nice for the size of speakers, do not expect highs and lows as if you were in a studio. The sound is satisfactory, however it would be nice to include a set of RCA cables to connect to the pre-amp, I had to fish out my own extra cables just to get the system up and running.

  4. great speakers for the price 1 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    i love these speakers! i bought them in april and used a 10 hr YT video to help break them in quicker and they just kept getting better after that. i definitely want to get a sub for them because the bass in them is decent but it overpowers the treble a bit but they are really great if you have minimal space and need to forgo an amp and reciever. the bluetooth is super nice too and makes them really versatile. i connect them to my phone and my apple tv all the time and the delay on the tv is so minimal that you can only really notice if you look for it. good value and would buy a set of ai41's for my computer set up :)

  5. Big, clear and powerful sound with lots of connectivity features 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    Well first things first - it's shipped from Canada. So do plan for that. It was delivered to me exactly the 10th day after placing the order. The wait was killing me as I was having second thoughts after placing the order.Relevant context about me: I work from home and listen to lot of music. I just use macbook pros. and for the last 3 years I was using the Bose Companion 2 Series III speakers. They are flawless, but recently I started wanting more.Packaging: Today I received these speakers via UPS. They came in a brown box with styrofoam moldings inside - encasing the speakers. The box was dented on one edge and that gave me such a scare, but upon opening and seeing that the styrofoam had absorbed that damage I was relieved. Speakers are heavy, so make sure you don't accidentally press the woofers when taking it out of the box.Setup: Connected the speaker cable, powered on and connected the RCA inputs to the macbook 3.5mm jack (using a Y-splitter RCA to 3.5mm cable). Played some music and everything worked well. No surprises. Next I tested out the Bluetooth option and all the features worked well. Then I explored the remote and played around with the Treble and Bass controls to adjust to my liking. To be honest, they sound very flat out of the box. So the adjustment on the remote was welcome.Thoughts: One of my BIGGEST concerns for this purchase was the hissing problem with many other speakers on the market and I was so afraid purchasing them online as I didn't know they'd hiss or not. But I am extremely happy to report that there is absolutely 0 hissing in these speakers. They are dead quiet when no music is playing or they are turned to stand by via the remote. Oh what a relief that was! I am really happy. Now, they need a 10-12 hr break-in. So I need more time to give a final verdict. But so far, I think I got what I paid for. Now if it performs well after the break-in period, then that would be the end of this successful project for me. The soundstage feels nice, the highs are clear and I was able to enjoy the songs of my liking. Rock, pop, Electronic, Indian classical, Irish, Sufi everything feels enjoyable. And I feel I can listen to it non-stop - which was one of the requirements for me. (This is one of the reasons I didn't go with the Klipsch Powered Monitors as many people reported them as dry and fatiguing). The primary purpose of this speaker for me was as Computer speakers on my desk (what people call Near Field listening I guess)Subwoofer: I am trying not to add a subwoofer to them, as I live in an apartment and love my elderly neighbors. So far it looks like they won't need a sub by a lot. Talking about a sub - know that if the speaker detects a subwoofer cable connected to it(even if it's not connected to a subwoofer on the other side mind you), then the amp will still cut out the sub-frequencies from the speaker (so if you don't plan on using a sub - make sure you don't plug in the cable as well) - for a much fuller sound. This is mentioned in their quick start guide, but is easy to forget.Build Quality: 5/5 (This was very reassuring. and I am very picky)Sound: 4/5 (I'm no expert, but this is enough for me.)Connectivity: 5/5 (Simple, but enough and everything works.)Standout features: Remote(no doubt.. very very handy and that too IR one - so no need to point), Color (I got the walnut with white face)They are just a great purchase and at this price are simply unmatched.. even overkill. Good luck to anyone buying them. 100% recommend.
