How will these compare to the iLoud Micro Monitors? I can't see how these will beat them.

It will be really hard to beat my Vanatoo T1E's, but I am willing to give them a listen.

In the $800 category, the top desktops are the SVS Wireless Pro and the Kali Audio IN-8 V2 which is an active 3-way. In the $400 price range, look at the Monoprice MM-5R. Then pick up a Monoprice 12" Subwoofer for about $100 and plug it into your speakers and rock out.

My question is will these have the ERP automatic standby that can’t be turned off? That feature has ruined powered desktop speakers for me and I haven’t used a set in years

MEZZANlNEI have the Klipsch 2.1 which won't shut off. I bought a single outlet surge protector that has its own switch to shut the speakers off. And you don't get that loud power pop, either. oviitech 2 Pack Grounded Outlet Wall Tap Adapter with On/Off Power Switch，Single Outlet with Switch in White

Would these sound better than the bookshelf speakers?

ridhuankimCan’t really compare them to studio monitors. Near field isolates the stage more to the desktop listener. There are pros and cons to use Int either. It can do things within the stage area that a pair of powered bookshelves would require much more positioning effort. Openness at the top end is the defining characteristic on the BMR. . This addresses the lack of real innovation and investment in desktop speakers . If you have room and flexibility in your crucial listening area there are advantages to the bookshelf’s. They have more power and go lower. The BMRs were designed to optimize for desktop use. Hope this helps. I haven’t head the M-Audio so opinion is more for application of the BMRS as opposed to powered bookshelves in general

ridhuankimWell only for a couple feet of distance if they're designed as desktop studio monitors. If your space is small then probably

My little room work in progress.
It's not done, I apologize for the mess. Health issues have put this on hold. It's a small room and I'm likely to sell off my KEF 104.2 loudspeakers and some other gear after surrendering the living room to my wife after her patience of 35 years. She deserved her own little sanctuary.

New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.

Drop x Campfire Audio Darkstar Review
The Darkstar definitely has a a unique sound that has an audiophile sub-bass bias. It is a balanced sound with open sounding mids and well extended treble. There is no mid-bass bloat thanks to...

BMR2 discounts for BMR1 owners
How about providing a BMR2 discount for BMR1 owners? Most of the "improvements" in the next gen should really have been there in the first which was a pretty big disappointment for most of us. UPDATE: 40% discount offered. That's great, I'm in. Thank you DROP.

Sound Characteristics Sonically, we wanted these new speakers to have an organic and natural tonality. Inspired by today’s top studio monitors, we wanted to have a speaker that’s truthful to the source while not sounding overly harsh or bright. After extensive testing, we can confidently say we’ve achieved that sound. Our new speakers have a holographic character with a natural soundstage and excellent imaging capabilities given their size and pricing. While we focused them around the midrange and treble—particular strengths of their drivers—they still pack a punch in the low end. And if you want to bulk it up even more, you can easily connect a subwoofer using the aux out on the rear. Customizable Magnetic Speaker Grilles As mentioned earlier, we wanted our new speakers to truly become a part of any desktop. To that end, we designed them to accommodate interchangeable magnetic grills—with a number of different options planned for 2023. Similar to different keycap and keyboard designs, we are working to create number of grille designs that you can easily change to suit your decor, desktop or mood. In fact, we’re hoping to create grilles that perfectly match some of the most popular keycap sets. We just need your input. What colorways would you like us to implement first on the grilles? Hit "Request" and stay tuned as we release more information next week.
