Was looking at all the usual suspects that are at least 2x the price of these, if you activate the £20 voucher that currently is available for these.Other than some reviews from the US, there wasn't a lot to be found about them. I couldn't find a reason to not at least give these a try.They arrived, I unboxed them, took the screens off immediately as they look better without in my opinion and played spotify from my phone, pc via bluetooth.Have to say, they by far exceeded my expectations, certainly after making some changes to my windows sound settings, which were set to mono for whatever reason. So if you fail the left\ right audio test, like I did, look there. Your ears will thank you.Only have them for a day but BT connection didn't drop once, sound is in sync with what you see on your screen (my previous BT speakers had issues there).As the picture shows, there are some leds at the front of the right speaker. That might be the only downside I can find so far, that you can not disable that.Came with every cable you can use with these speakers: Optical, AUX. There is also a remote control but make sure you have a couple of AAA batteries as they were not in the box. Remote isn't the best. Looks nice enough but the range seems limited. Also 4 buttons on the main speaker but it is a bit of a guess which button does what as they are all just black buttons with symbols "punched" in them. You almost need laser eyes to decipher what is what. But since there are only 4, you probably remember the power button is the one most left soon enough.Power supply came with a UK adaptor, something that wasn't too clear when I bought them. As there were only US reviews I half expected to be seeing a US PSU.All by all, for the £60 I paid for these, you will have a very hard time finding a better sounding and completer package than these.

5.0 out of 5 stars Look good. Value speakers

They have a good quality feel to them and look good also. They cost £60 so I would not be happy with them had I spent more than that. Sound is good for the price. If your expectations are right then these are good speakers. I use them to connect to my iMac so good enough for that. Not really room filling sound but good bass.

I needed a pair of small powered speakers for my office. I didn't want to spend a lot and these had good reviews. Hooking them up was such a breeze and I love that they had speaker wire included. I got these to use strictly with Bluetooth, primarily using Spotify. Initial sound was a bit muddy, like some reviews said. However, I messed with the equalizer in the Spotify app and made a custom blend. It sounds great. Even at low volumes it has a nice rich sound. Liked them so much I bought a pair for our bedroom at home. Really solid design and a nice color that goes well in any room, IMO. Remote is nice, too and makes it handy to mute quickly when I get a call at work. Some people said it doesn't power off, but it does. There is one small red light that's always on, but the speaker itself is not actually "on." Some people complain about the lights being on the front, but I found it a non-issue. Overall a good deal for a solid pair of small speakers.

These look and sound amazing, especially for bass-heads

These desk speakers are INSANE. The bass is so punchy but so long as your music listening app allows you to toy with the highs and lows, you can draw out more levels as you please. I have had no issues with it distorting any sound, they are very strong and loud speakers if you need them to be, they look so good on my desk and don't take up a ton of space, they were unbelievably easy to setup, and they are very much worth every single cent in my opinion. The bluetooth connectivity very fast and it's very easy to swap between input options.

Great Sound & Connectivity for the Price

These Saiyin Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers surprised me in the best way. The sound is full, clear, and gets plenty loud for my home office. Mids and highs are crisp, and while the bass is decent for their size, I’d recommend pairing with a subwoofer if you really want to feel the low end.Pros:Clear, well-balanced soundMultiple connection options (Bluetooth, Optical, RCA, AUX, Sub-out)Easy to set up and pair with devicesSleek, compact design that fits easily on a desk or shelfCons:No built-in bass/treble controls — you’ll need to adjust EQ from your sourceBright front LED stays on, which may be distracting in a dark roomOverall, these are excellent powered speakers for the price. Perfect for casual listening, gaming, or upgrading your PC/TV audio setup without breaking the bank.

deep bass, mid-high and high somewhat lacking but there, Still great sound for the money

I am somewhat disappointed in the sound these produce. - This is my experience, with my discerning ears and taste in audio. - But i also realize the price range, the expectation cant be for $1000, or even $500 speakers, and not like my JBL 305'sI like high Hi's ....middle of the way Mid's and deep punchy bass without forgetting the mid to high bass.These speakers do cover a lot of those bases, and for many it may be an outstanding deal.For me, given the reviews here, i was a little put off when i got them, not totally disappointed, just let down a little.I considered keeping them for my son but opted not to and returned them once Saiyin replaced them for the 6801K - though they sent me the old version when advised i would get the newer version with the horn tweeter, not the done tweeter.***Build qualityVisual quality - excellent, super nice looking speakers with the grill on or off, although the LED lights in the front should not be the size (actually larger) than a pencil erasure and should only light up based on the input selected (color coded lights per input method maybe.Saiyin - all that is needed are tiny lights, you don't need big led's like you have now.They are not very heavy and the external aesthetics are very appealing.Vibrations/Rattle at high volume - nonexistent - perfect.***Audio QualityLoudness - Oh my gosh yes, very loud, i did not test distortion much but they handle and extremely high volume level.Treble - This is one of my sticking points, though its not BAD, just not what i want in a speaker.The version without the Treble and Bass are limited, they don't offer any wiggle room without a pre-amp/EQ, which for those who have one, many lucky you, get these speakers!If you don't, then you should look at the 6801K for the Treble controlDon't get me wrong, the treble is there, its nice, but it wasn't what i wanted.Bass - more than enough for such a small little woofer and small enclosure, in fact wow, WOW, huge bass for what they are.Its tuned perfectly, for what they are but what would be nice, really nice, is maybe an alternate version that uses a Bass Reflex type ported enclosure because it offers an extremely elevated level of punch to your bass. even porting it from the rear so that bass bounces off the walls.a full 5" and 8" woofer/subwoofer version with larger horn tweeters and a midrange speaker would be putting many speaker people out of business - Edifier i am talking to you.***Customer ServiceMy experience with Saiyin has been nothing but phenomenal, the rep I dealt with was polite, understanding, helpful and even replaced the speakers I was not personally happy with, with the 6801K speakers which offer separate bass and treble, and a MIC input (which i think is pretty cool)This greatly helped tone down the extra bass because of the chipset tuning and bring up the treble to where i want it (which is treble maxed out, and Bass about 60%)I really really which they offered a 3-way speaker though, man i would replace my JBL305's with those.I still liked the original model, they are 10000% worth every penny, but don't buy them thinking they are JBL Monitors, or B&W or any other high end speaker.Envision cheaply priced speakers, that blow you away, and then blow you away again when you realize that the things are less than $100.They promote them as phonograph speakers, but let me tell you whether its this model or the 6801K they make AMAZING home theater speakers.And depending on how you position them, the need for a sub is down to personal preference, not out of necessity.Original -YES i realize these are TWO-WAY speakers but with a separate tweeter horn there should be more treble here.So far I have only tested Bluetooth and this is what i am basing my reply on, so for now i am keeping the review the way it stands.On the Iphone i had to use the Treble Booster EQ setting which does a lot more than boost trebles, but it made it sound better.I have had other BT adapters that caused heavy bass too so i am hopeful with the RCA or Optical inputs the audio will level out. (hoping)I did not test those as i later reached out to Saiyan and they resolved it (per my above remarks)

Just got it, preliminary review ... 5/5 So nice to have speakers with separation and good tone.

B. · 21 May 2025

OK, this is a preliminary review ... since I just got this in the door and set it up. It was very easy to set up and figure out.I used to have a pretty hot receiver, turntable, amplifier system back in the lastcentury when music was a much bigger concern for me - so the point is I know what a good sound system sounds like. Since that time I've mostly listened to music in my car, or live, or through my ear buds and I've enjoyed that, but at home I just listen on my computer mostly. I'd forgotten how nice it is to hear decent quality stereo with separation of the speakers.I have some nice Bose computer speakers and they sound pretty good, but these news speakers are great. I can plug them into my iMac, or listen through Bluetooth from my iPhone, and they really are good. With Bluetooth and a remote control too. I am a happy camper today.To be honest, this does not have the range or power to rattle the windows, but for the price this is a best buy for me, and I heartily recommend these to meet a need for good speakers on a budget.If or when things change for me I will come back and amend my review, but most electronic stuff I've bought has lasted forever pretty much.
