Big, confident bass and a spacious, layered presentation define these standmounts, delivering a surprisingly wide soundstage and lively tonal character. StereoNET United Kingdom praised the roomy, energetic delivery, while Erin's Audio Corner noted voicing and headroom limits — still, the SP601’s punchy low end and strong retrieval make it compelling for listeners who want a big, energetic sound.
Pros
- Weighty, confident low end that gives music a large, authoritative presence.
- Wide, layered soundstage with good separation and venue air.
- Strong detail retrieval and energetic presentation in upper mids/treble when positioned or toe‑ed correctly.
&
Cons
- Midrange voicing is inconsistent (scooped/recessed areas) and can lose articulation and natural texture.
- A pronounced 4–6 kHz region can sound forward or sharp on-axis without toe‑in or EQ.
- Limited headroom and elevated distortion at high SPLs; compression appears on loud, complex passages.
- Cabinet feels under-damped/under-braced with audible resonance on tap tests, which contributes to tonal hollowness.
Sound Quality
82/100
Bass
87/100
StereoNET praises the upper-bass as "fullsome" and "pacy and rhythmic" (Credence Clearwater Revival), and claims a 44Hz spec; Erin's measured in-room roll-off near ~70Hz and noted limited max output/compression. Net: strong, weighty bass for a 6.5" woofer but inconsistent headroom and some in-room roll-off/compression at high levels.
Mid
76/100
StereoNET describes a slightly recessed midrange with some smoothing of textured vocals and loss of fine detail; Erin's documents a scooped mid (~3dB down), inconsistent dips/peaks and elevated upper-mid distortion. Result: generally pleasant but lacking articulation and natural timbral accuracy at higher SPLs.
Treble
82/100
StereoNET calls the treble "crisp and tidy" but 'too energetic' on-axis (solver by ~15° toe-in); Erin's measured a 4–6kHz peak (~3–4dB) and mild resonances. Treble extends and provides air, but can sound forward/sharp on-axis and benefit from positioning or EQ.
Soundstage Imaging
84/100
StereoNET reports a wide soundstage with depth, layering and good venue air; Erin's directivity analysis warns of stronger sidewall reflections in the 2–7kHz region. So imaging is wide and spacious but subject to room/directivity effects that can smear detail off-axis.
Dynamics
78/100
StereoNET heard punchy, dynamic delivery on tracks (e.g., Hikaru Utada) thanks to ample bass, but Erin's lab work shows compression/raised distortion at higher SPLs (issues at 96–102 dB). Good transient punch at normal levels, limited headroom for loud/complex passages.

Build Quality
72/100
Both reviewers note under-damped/under-braced enclosures and audible cabinet resonance on tap tests; finish is modern (radiused edges/white vinyl) and the rear port is internally ribbed. Attractive styling but internal damping and bracing appear lacking, contributing to tonal hollowness.
Features Connectivity
80/100
Passive bookshelf baseline applied: single-post passive speaker. Reviews list sensitivity (85dB), 4Ω impedance and power handling (RMS 80W, peak 160W), plus rear port and magnetic grille; no bi-wire/extra connectivity features to raise score.
Value for Money
70/100
MSRP reported ~$399/pair but reviewers caution that better speakers exist at this price; StereoNET calls it "decent" but not a bargain, and Erin's says 'realistically, better speakers are available'. Solid sound in places but competing options offer cleaner voicing for similar money.
