  Cool designs and big sound from such a small loudspeaker, December 16, 2014

  By no means am I an audiophile but just a regular guy who enjoys music. And at first the fact that they came in so many different designs and even custom prints and colors was very welcomed compared to the typical boring black speakers. I originally discovered these hidden gems from a post on CNET by Steve Guttenberg and now after listening them I totally agree with his review and the stereo imaging is amazing, and sound definitely seemed like it was projected beyond the location of the speakers. I’ve had them for a few days but the more I listen to them the more I love the clear sound and punchy bass. I’ve played a range of music genres with these Sommeliers and they sound amazing for classical and jazz music. I was also surprised that hip-hop and rock sounded good as well with tight punchy bass, but if you’re total bass head there are probably more suitable speakers designed for that type of music. I also tried these in my living room to see as part of my home theatre but I think they sound best for a small to medium sized room for listening to music. If you’re looking for some intriguingly interesting looking, well made, and awesome sounding speakers in the $300-$400 range definitely check the Sommeliers out!

  Received my Sound Someliers a couple of days ago and I am really very satisfied with them. Terrific sound for the price and size. My only criticism, if I had one, would be that they are a bit weak in the bass region, but this can easily be corrected by adding a subwoofer. The midrange and higher frequency sound is superb. I hooked mine up to my Almarro 340A power amplifiers and my Modwright preamp to see how good they really are and was amazed at the great sound coming from these small speakers, especially at the price they are selling for. I have set them up in my office and run them with a pair of Pass ACA Class A monoblocks ($279 for the kit) and a Schiit passive preamp ($50) and they are amazing. Very easy to place them in a small room and they also look great in the zebra wood finish. Highly recommended. Buy a pair before they raise the price.

  Nice pair of speakers for a very reasonable price, May 4, 2015

  Nice pair of speakers for a very reasonable price, good stereo image and presentation – had a small issue which was no fault of the manufacture, the after service was very professional and my issue was resolved quickly.

  These little guys are loud enough for your average living room, but don’t expect them to push particularly hard in the lower frequencies, for that you might want to get an additional subwoofer.

  It’s refreshing to see unique styling, for those who want something a little different to go with their decor I can totally recommend a pair of these.
