Know before you buy
The S8 subwoofer handles the low-end frequencies that bookshelf speakers often struggle to reproduce. By offloading the deep bass to the dedicated sub, the HD5 speakers can focus on clearer mids and highs, resulting in a more balanced and complete soundstage.
The system features built-in Bluetooth for convenient wireless streaming from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. It also includes physical inputs on the back of the speakers if you prefer a wired connection for higher fidelity.
Yes, with a total output of 150W and the added power of the S8 subwoofer, this system is designed to fill medium to large rooms with immersive, high-resolution sound.
The HD5 system uses aramid fiber woofers and silk dome tweeters. Aramid fiber is chosen for its strength and rigidity, which helps maintain audio clarity at higher volumes, while the silk dome tweeters provide a smooth, non-fatiguing high-frequency response.
No, the HD5 is a self-powered system. The amplifier is built directly into the speaker cabinet, so you can connect your audio source directly to the speakers without needing extra equipment.
Yes, the system includes a dedicated remote control. This allows you to adjust the volume and manage other basic functions without needing to reach for the physical controls on the speakers.
