I don’t use them
Haven't tried the product out yet. But the purchase experience with audio factory was perfect. Keep up the good work
Bought this sub to compliment my vintage PSB Stratus Mini's that are still going strong from the 80s. So far, very happy with this subwoofer and my purchase from Audio Factory. Was a great deal, and a smooth transaction. Shipping was fast and secure.
Not many new subwoofers still have speaker level inputs and outputs. This was a must for me to go with my vintage setup. Hoping this sub lives a long life, time will tell.

The Dali e12f pairs beautifully with my Dali on-wall speakers. It has a minor dent on the back corner that is barely visible and easily offset by the huge discount.
Sound great even in a bigger room, look stylish. They're a good entry for hifi listening. If they're not giving enough sound, you know that you need a more high end bookshelf or floor standing speaker. Overall recommend!
Got the white model, it looks really nice and it does what it's supposed to do (Qobuz Connect). There's no cover art for anything I stream, so I'm going to have to ding this down a star, but that may be on Qobuz's end. If so, I'll restore the star to 5 stars.
Ordered speakers in “refurbished” condition, upon arrival speakers appeared well packaged and could be mistaken for brand new condition.
This was a Christmas gift. I can only attest to the fast shipping and great packaging.
Equipment was as good as new. Shipping was faaaast! Higly recommend.
Great speakers in my opinion, but my wife feels they lack bass, so might have to add a sub at some point
I came in blind to this product but after receipt I was thoroughly impressed. The fitment, the excellent hardware and the look of it assembled are above and beyond. Well done!!
This is an excellent product, the sound quality is first class. Ideally, it might be sold with its own remote. The accompanying headphones, while free, are yesterday’s product and awkward to connect to Bluetooth. Including the remote would be more helpful to those who purchase this fine speaker.
Excellent price, Service and Super Fast Shipping from Canada, the CD player is in like-new condition, all original, and the sound is perfect when connected to my NAD C275bee and my NAD 165bee with my Monitor Audio speakers. Thank you AAAAA+++++
Unfortunately, my NAD C700 V2 was defective out of the box. From the very first power-on, the unit entered a continuous reboot/protection loop and never functioned properly, even with only the power cable connected.
While this may have been an isolated hardware failure, the customer support experience with NAD/BluOS was disappointing. The ticket was mishandled, closed without resolution, and I was directed toward repair instead of a proper DOA replacement for a brand-new product.
I would however like to thank Audio Factory, who handled the situation professionally and supported a full refund.
Excellent headphones with amazing bass and imaging. A steal at the discounted price.
I received the unit quickly and was anxious to try it for both streamed music and for home entertainment. The Node Icon has enough inputs that I thought I could connect my BluRay player,, ethernet internet, and TV. I have succeeded in doing this by using an HDMI cable from the BluRay player to the TV and using an optical cable from the TV to the Node Icon. My hope that I could use the HDMI eARC port of the TV and Node Icon was futile as any time I connected the HDMI cable I heard an annoying hum from the speakers. I tried various solutions promoted online and worked with Bluesound customer support to attempt to address the problem. The Bluesound team had me do a test with the Bluesound powered down and the HDMI cable connected to determine the hum didn't originate in the Bluesound and there was nothing more they could do. I have been using the optical connection instead and it sounds greaf, but I'm disappointed that I can't use the HDMI port. I'm researhing various solutions but only as I find time. Bottom line, I'm happy with the performance of the Bluesound, but can only give it four stars because of the lack of, for me, a usable HDMI port.
I was already gobsmacked by the Bluesound Edge class D streamer. If you haven't auditioned a class D amp, drop everything and find a way.
The Edge was wonderful, and I knew within a few months that this was a viable way to stream high quality source.
I fell out of audio nervosa almost ten years ago when I had to section off and sell my man cave bits to move into a townhouse. I am now in a good position again and I've spent quite a while tuning the speaker's and room placement, Cardas rules.
As crazy a drop in noise floor that I heard in the class D, the streaming section of the NAD Master's V10 was a step up. Long ago I did not find DAC improvements to be worth the cost beyond a fairly reachable knee curve. Don't even get me started in interconnects, I could do both BNC and coaxial and gods help me they were different but I couldn't say how. I gave up the uncertainty of circuit requirements to a one box player and didn't look back.
This M10, which uses the ESS Sabre chips, I have had no previous experience with them, makes a liar out of me, there was quite a bit of music still available upwards on that knee curve.
With a money back guarantee if not delighted, what do you have to lose? Get yourself the xmas present no one else will.
Well built. Just the right amount of features. Pleased with this purchase!
The unit was received in immaculate condition and was shipped quickly. You could see it had been used only by the plastic banana plugs for A speakers had been removed. Short of that you would not be able to differentiate from a new unit. In terms of performance, it's too early to give a valid opinion, but first impressions is that it has a very good damping factor - ability to hold onto set of speakers that in some frequencies drop very low impedance and problematic phase angles. It has the reserves to do this well - one feels the muscle behind it, never struggling, even at rather high output levels - it has >500 W into 2 ohms of dynamic power and that is evident. Musically initially I would say it is quite neutral, lacks some of the warmth of some tube amps for example. It is quite revealing of source quality, rather surprisingly so.
Dirac live, I've just started with it - again, need more time for fair analysis. Easy to use however, but I think the default target curve might not be the one for me. Will seek out one of the HK versions. But, I like to get to know the base level, without DSP first, before tweaking the response curve. All in all, I feel the NAD is a very good value at the Re-Certified price. I have added the BlueOS to it, making it very easy to integrate with variety of modern sources - I personally almost exclusively use Roon. Device is Roon Ready, so that makes this completely seamless. Also nice, that it wakes up from standby, simply by starting playback from any Roon control device. You need the BlueOS app to be able to choose different sources, Dirac correction curves, etc. Unfortunately the BlueOS app then thinks it needs to tell you what song is playing and give you additional volume control through your phone, that is duplicitous if you are like me using Roon app for playback and volume control. There may be possibility to turn that off, have not researched yet.
Despite being polymer, the fit and finish are excellent. The layout is clear and simple to use. It's worth the cost. Preset buttons (e.g., Sportify, HDMI) are very handy.
Additionally, I reached out to Bluesound about my Powernode problem, and their support team got back to me quickly and was helpful.
I purchased this item for my bistro and switched from Sono's to Bluesounds. I have to say the improvement of sound quality was clear and noticeable even we got some feedbacks from our regulars that appreciated the higher quality music.
The issue is the continues play, we have 1G/S speed in our place and the speakers has its own router, event though the speakers face many stops while playing music, the syncs between speakers get messed up, like sometimes we notice few second delay on some of the speakers.
Conclusion, as long as the system sync and play properly it is amazing, have quality and feel the space with soft noises. But man when it's decide to not play a song, it is trouble.
The sound from these speakers are outstanding.. They were received in three days in the original boxes and look to be in new condition. The fit and finish are excellent and look nice in my listening room.
Elegant design fits very well especially for wearing a long time. Great sound quality and performance.
