Saiyin Powered Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers

I am somewhat disappointed in the sound these produce. - This is my experience, with my discerning ears and taste in audio. - But i also realize the price range, the expectation cant be for $1000, or even $500 speakers, and not like my JBL 305's I like high Hi's ....middle of the way Mid's and deep punchy bass without forgetting the mid to high bass. These speakers do cover a lot of those bases, and for many it may be an outstanding deal. For me, given the reviews here, i was a little put off when i got them, not totally disappointed, just let down a little. I considered keeping them for my son but opted not to and returned them once Saiyin replaced them for the 6801K - though they sent me the old version when advised i would get the newer version with the horn tweeter, not the done tweeter. ***Build quality Visual quality - excellent, super nice looking speakers with the grill on or off, although the LED lights in the front should not be the size (actually larger) than a pencil erasure and should only light up based on the input selected (color coded lights per input method maybe. Saiyin - all that is needed are tiny lights, you don't need big led's like you have now. They are not very heavy and the external aesthetics are very appealing. Vibrations/Rattle at high volume - nonexistent - perfect. ***Audio Quality Loudness - Oh my gosh yes, very loud, i did not test distortion much but they handle and extremely high volume level. Treble - This is one of my sticking points, though its not BAD, just not what i want in a speaker. The version without the Treble and Bass are limited, they don't offer any wiggle room without a pre-amp/EQ, which for those who have one, many lucky you, get these speakers! If you don't, then you should look at the 6801K for the Treble control Don't get me wrong, the treble is there, its nice, but it wasn't what i wanted. Bass - more than enough for such a small little woofer and small enclosure, in fact wow, WOW, huge bass for what they are. Its tuned perfectly, for what they are but what would be nice, really nice, is maybe an alternate version that uses a Bass Reflex type ported enclosure because it offers an extremely elevated level of punch to your bass. even porting it from the rear so that bass bounces off the walls. a full 5" and 8" woofer/subwoofer version with larger horn tweeters and a midrange speaker would be putting many speaker people out of business - Edifier i am talking to you. ***Customer Service My experience with Saiyin has been nothing but phenomenal, the rep I dealt with was polite, understanding, helpful and even replaced the speakers I was not personally happy with, with the 6801K speakers which offer separate bass and treble, and a MIC input (which i think is pretty cool) This greatly helped tone down the extra bass because of the chipset tuning and bring up the treble to where i want it (which is treble maxed out, and Bass about 60%) I really really which they offered a 3-way speaker though, man i would replace my JBL305's with those. I still liked the original model, they are 10000% worth every penny, but don't buy them thinking they are JBL Monitors, or B&W or any other high end speaker. Envision cheaply priced speakers, that blow you away, and then blow you away again when you realize that the things are less than $100. They promote them as phonograph speakers, but let me tell you whether its this model or the 6801K they make AMAZING home theater speakers. And depending on how you position them, the need for a sub is down to personal preference, not out of necessity. Original - YES i realize these are TWO-WAY speakers but with a separate tweeter horn there should be more treble here. So far I have only tested Bluetooth and this is what i am basing my reply on, so for now i am keeping the review the way it stands. On the Iphone i had to use the Treble Booster EQ setting which does a lot more than boost trebles, but it made it sound better. I have had other BT adapters that caused heavy bass too so i am hopeful with the RCA or Optical inputs the audio will level out. (hoping) I did not test those as i later reached out to Saiyan and they resolved it (per my above remarks)

I'm really impressed with these small speakers. They seem to be quality made and are visually attractive. The lights inside the grill of the main speaker remind users that they are on and also indicate volume level. I use these in my home gym to keep me motivated. I was surprised at the quality and loudness of the speakers. The bass was particularly thunderous, so much so that I use an app to adjust the bass downward. Prior to purchase I thought I would have to buy a subwoofer to go along with the speakers, but it would have been a waste of money. These babies put out enough bass for anybody. The loudness is more than capable for any large space. My garage is 25x40 and I never use more than 2 out 5 bars of volume. I use the bluetooth feature to connect to my smartphone. It connects easily and holds the connection. The only thing I would have liked to have would be a longer speaker cord to attach the dumb speaker. Order a roll of speaker wire if you want the speakers spaced far apart.

It is great if you buy it for the right purpose. I have purchased two sets. For casual listening to music from my iPhone or other Bluetooth devices, it is great. For my TV in my bedroom, it is great. Can turn up the volume and adjust frequencies with no distortion. It is perfectly fine for those uses. If you are an audiophile and demand perfection in frequency responses or in a home entertainment system with demanding requirements, you may be disappointed. But for the PC, casual use, Bluetooth, and normal TV uses, it is perfect. Great sound at a great price. Easy to set up. Easy to switch modes. And they look good too. Highly recommend.

Good stereo speakers are a great investment. I've enjoyed my B&Ws for two decades. But having "a stereo" is becoming more uncommon. Many people these days only hear music through their cell phone or TV speakers. Perhaps a small BT speaker or a sound bar. I wanted to get my mom something better than her tablet to listen to music on, and was considering a single BT speaker, but discovered these sub-$100 bookshelf speakers. To be honest, I was skeptical, but the offer of physical stereo separation and bass ports was too much to pass up. No matter how cheap, when moving air there's just no replacement for displacement. They arrived well packaged & undamaged. Removing the grills for inspection did reveal a small bulge on the front of the right speaker, which appears to be a manufacturing defect. As it's not visible with the cover on, that's not a significant flaw. The finish does seem reasonably tough, a textured vinyl wood grain in a neutral dark brown that should go with just about any decor. Setup was easy, and it paired quickly with mom's iPad. I'm impressed with the presence of an optical input. It's not HDMI, but it wouldn't be hard to use the included optical cable to connect to a TV. Unlike a sound bar or portable BT, these speakers could serve as the center of an entire entertainment system: TV/gaming through the optical (plus music streaming with a smart TV), turntable or CD through the RCA inputs, and BT for phone or tablet streaming. No receiver or switches required. At this price that connectivity & utility is quite a value. So how do they sound? Pretty good. I'm sure all the components are as inexpensive as possible, but we've been making ported two-way speakers for decades. You don't really need diamond tweeters to produce acceptable sound. People have been rocking out with the old silk domes for a long time. The bass ports are well-tuned & the low-end is as good as you can expect from a speaker this size. The mids are disappointing, but one thing I haven't seen other reviewers mention is the digital amp has three different modes: "movie/music/news". Clearly preset EQ profiles. I figured "news" would probably boost the mid/human voice range. Selecting that did help the issue, and I would recommend using that setting even for music for a flatter response. Some additional EQ tweaking would probably be a good idea, but I doubt my mom will notice. She would love listening to Dolly Parton on an old AM truck radio, so a slightly tinny sound is probably appropriate. Another option - if size is not an issue - would be to go with the 5" version of this speaker for a few dollars more. Nothing this size will ever compare to free-standing tower speakers, but every little bit helps. Just having speakers of any kind is a big step up from in-device (TV/tablet) speakers, and having two real two-way speakers is inherently acoustically better than any single-box solution, especially at this price. The appearance is good - to most people a speaker is a speaker - and the connectivity options are truly excellent.

To spare you time, let me get my concerns out of the way. First, they're not as big as I'd hoped, but that's mostly on me. The dimensions are listed. The quality seems fine. One of pins on the covers did break when I pulled it off pretty easily. It's not a deal breaker. Easy to fix and it doesn't affect performance. I don't like the covers anyway, but if you're planning on using them, you may want to be very careful if you have to take them off. Not worthy of dropping a star though. I think for the price of these speakers it is good sound. They get plenty loud enough although they have their limits as most speakers this size do . They do seem pretty well built other than that one issue. They're maybe others out there in that price range that are better but probably not by much. I would definitely recommend these. If I had to do it over again though I would spend more and get something bigger or go with a 2.1 system. If you're looking for good sound at a good price that doesn't take up a lot of space. This is definitely a good choice!

These surprised me. I have some Adam audio studio monitors I use for mixing but I wanted some speakers for casual listening that I could connect to my record player, and these absolutely did the trick. I do admit they are bass heavy but it doesn’t really wash anything out unless you just have a terrible eq. It also came with bass plugs which I haven’t used yet but I assume help with that problem. They sound great and I’ve had no connectivity, power, or sound issues at all so far. Now of course they don’t have 500$ sound quality, but they sure do pack a punch and are worth more than 60$ in my opinion.

I've had a great experience with these speakers. I plan on buying another pair. The quality is booming with great bass and depth. You're getting your money's worth with the 4-inch woofer. My neighbors asked me to turn down my music ^_^ With that said, the bass is powerful and you may need to EQ from whatever device you're playing from, as the speaker it self does not have a EQ system to balance the high, mids, and lows.

Just received these. Couldn’t be more pleased with them. Extremely easy to set up. Solid construction. Look great as well. And most importantly, great sound! Perfect with my turntable.
