Audyssey

Our take on the Audyssey Lower East Side Media Speakers

Audyssey's Lower East Side media speakers look good and sound even better. They were inspired by New York's Lower East Side neighborhood — their compact size makes them ideal for small rooms and apartments and their industrial design looks great with modern decor. They're built to perform, too. You'll get exceptional clarity, deep bass and balanced sound from your computer, iPod®, or even TV.


Designed to impress

Audyssey engineered every part of these speakers to work perfectly together. The drivers and cabinet were custom-designed for high levels of performance at every volume. Audyssey Smart Speaker™ Technology allows the speakers to adapt on the fly for better reproduction of all material — whether it's movies, games, or music.


Connect to almost any source

These speakers feature both an optical digital input as well as an analog minijack input, so you can easily connect to a TV, laptop, desktop computer, gaming system, or iPod. An easy access volume control lets you adjust the level, and a headphone jack makes it a breeze to switch to private listening when you want.

    • 3/4" silk-dome tweeter

4 out of 5

huge sound; small speakers

Written By Jamey Niland, Hickory Creek, Texas on Monday, February 27, 2012
 
The LES system is one quite confident desktop speaker system. Bass extension is incredible. Really, seriously deep (40Hz) bass. The upper mids and highs are far more delicate than one would expect from a $200 pair of desktop speakers. Amazing! There is only one consideration, though - be very mindful of how close these are placed to boundaries, such as walls and monitors. If too close, the mid bass (150-350Hz) bloom is greatly exaggerated. In a free field, these are incredible, jaw-dropping speakers!

PS - use the optical input - the 1/8" analog input leaves a lot to be desired...
Pros:
bass extension; mid/high clarity
Cons:
midbass sensitivity to boundaries

Great sound. Excellent bass and immersive sound stage.
Pros:
The great sound and optical input.
Cons:
BUT the auto standby where they turn off automatically after half an hour necessitating a manual turn on may have me returning them. Might be a deal breaker. Will give it the weekend but if I find myself continuously turning them back on they will be returned and I will buy the Bose Companion 20 I think.

It turns out that high fidelity isn't just for geezers like me after all, as this post about teenage audiophiles from CNET's Steve Guttenberg demonstrates. That's the kind of news...
