What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 89/100
Reviews describe a big, engaging and largely well-balanced sound that reaches well beyond typical desktop duty. Its strongest traits are substantial bass, an open and convincing stereo presentation, and an expressive midrange, although the default tuning can sound over-energetic and benefits from the rear tone controls.
Bass
90/100
For a 5.5-inch powered standmount, reviewers repeatedly found the bass unusually deep, weighty and impactful. Audiosolace heard deep, detailed and clean bass without overhang, while Future Audiophile found it effective without a subwoofer; SoundGuys and HIFI Trends note that the default bass balance can be too generous for some material.
Mid
89/100
Vocals and instruments are widely reported as clear, open and expressive. HomeTheaterHifi called the midrange excellent even at close range, while Audiosolace praised intelligible vocals and Future Audiophile enjoyed the way voices projected from the mix; SoundGuys found the mids could become shy when the bass was set too high.
Treble
88/100
Several reviewers praise a detailed, airy and smooth top end, with The Audiophile Man specifically noting more delicacy and less fizz than less expensive Edifier models. There are meaningful setup and taste-related reservations: SoundGuys found cymbals distractingly loud at default settings, HomeTheaterHifi found the highs colder than expected, and HIFI Trends wanted more upper-frequency air.
Soundstage Imaging
91/100
The S1000W earns especially consistent praise for its spacious, well-focused stereo image. Audiosolace heard convincing layering, separation and an expansive three-dimensional stage, while HIFI Trends, Future Audiophile and The Audiophile Man also report broad staging, strong nearfield imaging and focused vocals.
Dynamics
89/100
Reviewers find the speakers lively and capable of filling more than a desktop-sized space. Audiosolace heard subtle dynamic shading as well as emotional expression, and The Audiophile Man praised the dynamic reach; Future Audiophile noted some compression only at very high listening levels.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
89/100
The cabinet is consistently described as substantial, solid and attractively finished. Audiosolace calls the construction solid with an immaculate appearance, while multiple reviewers remark on the pair's considerable weight; reviewers say less about internal construction details or long-term durability.
Value for Money
91/100
At roughly $400-$450, reviewers see a well-equipped and persuasive alternative to piecing together a separate compact system. Future Audiophile says the broad connectivity and long-term versatility make the $449 investment go a long way, while HIFI Trends and The Audiophile Man consider its sound notably impressive at this price level.
