    Omdat wij in een appartement wonen hebben we geen plek voor grote speakers. Bij een bezoek aan Hanze Hifi in Zwolle werden de Alpha IQ speakers aangeraden. We hebben er geen minuut spijt van en genieten van een fantastisch geluid.

    (Because we live in an apartment, we don't have room for large speakers. When visiting Hanze Hifi in Zwolle, the Alpha IQ speakers were recommended. We don't regret it for a minute and enjoy fantastic sound.)

    I own several PSB speakers…wanted a wireless speaker for my bedroom OLED.flatscreen….i set these up, no fuss, no muss and for the size , they blew me away. An attractive small speaker with amazing sound, tight, accurate sound. I had to buy another pair for my kitchen, I love to cook and having superior sound to boot. Folks you can’t go wrong with these accurate PSB speakers.

    I heard amazing things about this speakers….after hearing them I had to own a pair. When they arrived….mind blowing.
    I own a lot of audio equipment but these demure speakers were without a doubt the best I heard for the size. Amazing look, and incredible sound. I own a lot of speakers but these blew me away.
    If you have limited space, and want a speaker that will make your cell phone sound amazing….I promise you you will not be disappointed.

    An incredible sound experience.

    I have been trying to achieve a minimalist looking bit of hi-fi kit with the biggest sound available. These “speakers” really fit the bill. They are powered by NAD class D amplification and also have a built in Bluesound streamer and a phono pre-amp that I use, plus digital connectivity that I don’t particularly need but am glad to have. The phono pre-amp has an unusually low noise floor and the streamer is very high res. My only complaint is a quibble and that is that it took some time to get them working properly (solid blue lights on both primary and secondary speakers), but once thy were up and running they were stable as can be and really shined. Bass is impossibly articulate for such a small speaker and they sound great at both low and high volumes, with preservation of a good stereo image even very off-axis. If you want to go minimal this is as good a choice as any. I say future-fi all the way!

    These completely exceeded my expectations - the heft for their size is surprising, but everything is well balanced with gorgeous soundstaging, and glitch free usability. Was downsizing to clear clutter and thought I would have to compromise on quality - these proved me wrong and look sweet to boot! Can't recommend enough.
