Know before you buy
Yes, these are passive speakers, meaning they do not have built-in amplification. You will need to connect them to an external stereo receiver or power amplifier to drive them.
Absolutely. While they excel as a standalone stereo pair for music, their compact size and precise sound signature make them an excellent choice for surround sound channels in a home theater system.
The 607 S3 is specifically engineered for smaller rooms or desktop setups. Because they feature a rear-firing Flowport, you should ideally place them a few inches away from the wall to prevent the bass from becoming muddy.
The new Titanium Dome tweeter offers higher resolution and a smoother, more detailed high-frequency response. It provides a clearer, more open soundstage that makes instruments and vocals feel more lifelike.
Yes, the speakers are designed to sound excellent with or without the grilles. The grilles are acoustically transparent, so they won't interfere with the sound quality, but removing them can offer a more modern aesthetic.
