Know before you buy
Bipolar sound means the speakers emit audio from both the front and the back. This design creates a wider, more immersive soundstage that fills your room more effectively than traditional directional speakers.
Yes. Because they feature both RCA and 3.5mm inputs, you can connect them to a variety of sources, including tablets, smartphones, or dedicated media players.
While they are designed as desktop speakers, their audio fidelity is high enough to serve as a primary sound system for smaller spaces like bedrooms or studio apartments.
No, these are self-powered, active speakers. You can plug them directly into your audio source and a wall outlet without needing additional amplification equipment.
The wood enclosure provides a more rigid and acoustically inert cabinet compared to plastic alternatives. This helps reduce unwanted vibrations, resulting in cleaner, more accurate sound reproduction.
