SW206 80W Active Dual-Mode Bookshelf Speakers, 4inch Studio Monitor and HiFi Mode, Optical Coaxial TRS Aux Bluetooth 5.0 USB with 24bit DAC, for Home Music System Turntable TV PC Desktop, White

WHOA - I'm a music producer with picky ears, and my casual listening speakers for office blew out (big brand bought on Sweetwater, second time). I needed something ASAP and ordered these for next day delivery and am so impressed by these little babies! Set them up in about 2 minutes.First off: Dynamic range is immediately noticeable. There is clarity throughout from low to high end, without any noticeable distortions or gaps.Second: The CLARITY is outstanding. I can crank these up all the way without sacrificing quality for volume. Again, very impressive. The bass, mids, and higher end are definitely all very present (in default position) without any warping at increased volume. All the styles of music and audio I've listened to so far sound great.Third: The clarity speaks volumes (pun intended) about the quality of the speaker body and build. Definitely lightweight enough for their size, but also sturdy and hearty enough to trust. The speaker materials and craftmanship feel durable, sturdy, and tightly crafted. I really enjoy the solid box design without the silk mesh plate in front. I feel this helps improve the sound at loud volumes as well. Perfect for a small to mid-size room.ANNND: They look great! I got a white pair and they blend right into my setup. Looking good😎I may well be buying a second pair of these for the living room. Will update if anything changes.

Overall this is a 4.5 star buy. I bought two sets in November of 2022. Both get daily use. The sound is quite good, lots of range and they can get pretty loud. Most of what I listen to doesn't need high fidelity, so I am not an audiophile by any definition of the term. These get used for video calls and streamed music, and that's it.I generally use the 3.5mm jack. A few things that I noticed:The 3.5mm jack on one pair simply stopped working. I use BlueTooth now, but it's an annoyance as I'd prefer to use the 3.5mm jack since I use multiple machines on a Thunderbolt Dock.The USB interface doesn't allow my mac to actually control the volume, or I'm not smart enough to figure it out.Overall, I'd buy them again, no questioned asked.

Good quality speaker, plenty good enough for my purposes. Bass is adequate and volume can be turned up much higher than I expected. I was tired of my previous bluetooth speakers cutting off every 5 minutes to save power and having to cut them back on. Crazy annoying. These stay on thankfully so that alone is a win for me.

Son pequeños pero potentes, y no solo es el alto volumen que ofrece siento enserio, la calidad de sonido tan buena, realmente es una excelente compra

These are total bargain-bin speakers, poorly engineered, with design defects and no useful documentation.The biggest engineering bug is that the volume knob doesn't work when you use it with USB. This problem is no documented anywhere on the Amazon page. It does seem to be discussed in the printed booklet that comes with the speakers, but the English is so bad that it's hard to tell what they intended to say: "Note: When using Bluetooth mode and USB cable connection mode, the speaker volume may share the same volume with the device, so the main volume knob is not set with the highest and lowest volume scales." If you can understand that sentence, then good for you. I'm guessing it came straight out of Google Translate.The speakers can be used in three modes, but the printed booklet that comes with the speakers doesn't mention how to set the the mode. For this information, you need to carefully look through the Amazon page, where they have this note: "Long press 2 seconds to change the mode, green is audio mode, red is USB connection mode, blue is Bluetooth mode. " I assume "audio mode" is intended to mean using it with a phono jack. "Long press" refers to pressing and holding the volume knob for a couple of second. This is really bad engineering. For usability, all they needed to do was make the thing detect when it's connected to USB. (Hey, it's not that hard for a USB device to detect that!) As it is, you get the thing out of the box and plug it in through the USB cable, and you have absolutely no idea why it isn't working.The micro-USB cable they supply does not mate nicely with the port on the back of the speaker. It's hard to tell whether you're pushing it in hard enough or not. Low-quality parts, cheap engineering.One speaker has all the connectors sticking out of the back. The power cable sticks out about 6 cm. This is awkward when you're trying to fit the speaker into a confined space, e.g., it wouldn't fit on my windowsill. So if you're buying these because they look compact, keep this in mind.The only good things I will say about these speakers are that they do have pretty decent bass response, and they were certainly cheap.[EDIT] I spent an afternoon doing some coding while playing sound through the speakers, and I experienced even more problems.The biggest hassle is that the USB input worked fine for a few hours and then abruptly stopped working in the middle of playing something. I tried power cycling the speakers, but that didn't help. I had to shut down my computer and reboot to get the speakers working again, but then the USB input stopped working again after a couple of minutes. As a last resort, I plugged the speakers in via the analog phono-plug cable (which luckily I'd saved). This fixed it, but it eliminated one of my main reasons for having bought this particular model of speakers, which was that I wanted something with USB input.A second thing I noticed is that the broken behavior of the volume knob is not even consistent. What I originally observed was that the knob seemed to have no effect when I was in USB mode, and I assumed that this was what was being documented in the tortured English of the documentation, as quoted above. But I later noticed that turning the knob while in USB could actually have three different effects: (1) sometimes it has no effect; (2) sometimes it works; (3) sometimes it deactivates the speakers and the only way to recover is by power cycling.So basically it looks like whoever made the USB interface was just totally incompetent and/or didn't do any testing. The USB interface is just completely unusable my experience.A final issue is that when I was in USB mode, I found that for some material (e.g., the PBS News Hour's streaming programs on their web site), the sound output was extremely low -- e.g., too low to be easily audible when there was background noise such as a fan. This seemingly can't be fixed in software, because even when I max out my operating system's volume control, I just can't get a level through the USB interface that is loud enough. Of course, if the volume knob worked while in USB mode, then you would have a way to convince the speakers to give some more gain -- but as described above, that's a disaster.
