Product Review (submitted on February 7, 2020):

I was initially set to purchase the Ai40, but these were on sale for 199.99, only 30 bucks more than the Ai40s. I needed a quick solution for bedroom audio: I no longer wanted to use a dedicated amp and speakers and thought these would be an ideal option.At first, I was unimpressed. However, I let them "burn-in" for the suggested time indicated in the manual. After this, these began to impress me. Bluetooth sounded decent, however, the sound is noticeably much better using the Toslink and USB input coming from my Macbook.Separation and imaging are great, and they do a good job of creating a phantom center. Some music sounds bass-heavy, even with the bass lowered to its minimum. One solution was to adjust the equalizer from your source(Tidal, Spotify, Ipad, etc). They get loud without too much distortion, but they sound best at moderate to lower volumes.Does it sound as good as my main system? No, and that's ok. What it does provide is a great, fun listening experience for a decent price. If you're just beginning, or need a good, basic setup for a den, living area, or bedroom, this is perfect. Not audiophile-grade, but still a great, everyday set of speakers. Definitely worth checking out.
