So far so good

The v1s did end up becoming my daily drivers, though I used a remote-controlled outlet to turn them off when not in use due to temperature concerns. Happy to say, the tempture reduction seems to have worked. In a day of use , it is slightly warmer near the amp than the rest of the body when active, but absolutely nowhere near the concerning levels of the v1. Personally wouldn't be concerned anymore if I left these on all the time, especially with low power mode. I do wish the LED in low power mode was even dimmer—or ideally, just off. That said, the dimmer LED is a welcome improvement. Only annoying when I turn my computer off and the light is still barely on. Not having a physical volume knob doesn’t bother me much, though a small one on the back might have been a nice touch. I actually prefer the sleekness as I have them mounted under my monitor and use keyboard/macropad controls/knob to adjust system volume. As with previous iterations, these speakers are quite loud. Plugged directly into my motherboard, I’ve rarely needed to set them above ~26. Overall, still think they sound great for the form factor. They probably aren't going to blow any audiophile minds, but they’re a fantastic option for tight spaces like mine. Definitely add a sub if you want bass extension, but I've been more than happy using them as desktop speakers for casual listening.

Pretty good for the size and $99 price

So, I missed out on the first version of these years ago and from the sentiment I've read they weren't a huge hit. What I like about the version 2's are the form factor and the sheer amount of sound and detail that come out of these. I think that the ability to mount these vertically or horizontally is a plus. If these had a dedicated volume knob and a subwoofer add on, they would be a home-run for folks who just want a solid, no hassle desktop audio solution. I'll do some testing with adding my 8 inch sub and routing sound through my interface with a dual 1/4 trs to 3.5mm to see how much better these can sound.

teedsterWill you be using the Subwoofer Output in the BMR1 to connect your current 8" subwoofer? I would also recommend utilizing the 2.1 switch on the back of the BMR1 to get a bit more performance from the drivers.
