WS30i Customer Product Review
“Upon opening the package you will be pleasantly surprised at how complete this set is. Everything needed to get started is included: desktop stands, remote control with battery, power supply, jack to RCA cable, jack to jack cable, and the cable to connect the left and right speakers (and the speakers themselves).
Regarding the appearance: apart from the front and back, the speakers are wrapped in leather. This is not commonplace, and the effect is very nice. Due to their compact size, the speakers are easy to place anywhere. Whether they are used with the television, or on your desktop, they look great anywhere! If, like me, you have your speakers on your desktop the desktop stands will come in very handy! With the desktop stands, the speakers are positioned tilted directed at the ear of the listener. Also, the stands ensure acoustic insulation for the bass.
The remote control is very handy; all the speakers’ functions can be operated from, your armchair.
Connecting is easy: connect the power supply, connect the speakers with a source, connect the left and right speakers together, and let’s roll.
And most importantly: the sound.
I listen from classical to techno, from rock to reggae, and everything in between. These speakers really shine with all genres of music. The highs are crisp and detailed, and there’s plenty of bass where it’s needed. Also, the soundstage is much wider than to be expected given the size of the speakers.
As opposed to many other brands, the reflex port is situated at the front. This means that the speakers can be placed closer to the wall (Very useful on a crowded desktop). This also makes the bass more directed and detailed.
About the volume: there’s probably a lot more power in the amps than you will need. Besides that, the sound does not distort when you crank up the volume.
Blue Aura’s service is really fantastic. My speakers (bought locally) were missing the desktop stands. It took one e-mail, and a set of stands was received free of charge within a week!
And better still, when the remote control turned out to have been damaged during transport, a new remote was quickly sent.
Thank Blue Aura, and thanks Nick. You guys are the best!
So if you’re looking for a pair of compact and good looking speakers which sound great, the WS30i is your speaker!“
