Home speakers

Over the years, the Canadian producer Fluance has made a name for itself in the world of budget-friendly audio systems, with a series of carefully-designed speakers aimed at making hi-fidelity fun and accessible to anyone.

As part of their Signature series, their HiFi bookshelf speakers aim to provide an immersive sound texture to anyone who wants to upgrade their audio system for just $200.

It’s always a good day when I get to talk about the gear I love. If you read some of my previous speaker reviews you might have noticed I often compare affordable speakers with the Sony SS-CS5, and that’s because it offers refinement and accuracy you’d never expect from a bookshelf speaker under $200 a pair.

The KEF LS50 Meta is the evolution of the hugely successful LS50, released over a decade ago and still considered a milestone in terms of sound quality and design.

However, KEF felt they could further push the boundaries of audio reproduction, so they released the KEF LS50 Meta in 2020 to critical acclaim.

Gone are the days when you had to spend a fortune to get a good-quality hi-fi system, and the Polk T15 is the epitome of affordable bookshelf speakers that can deliver more than they should.

Since its inception in 1946, Klipsch has made a name for itself in the world of loudspeakers with a series of products that showcase flat frequency response and an immersive sound without breaking the bank.

Following the same philosophy, their R-41M proves once again that high-quality audio doesn’t always require huge investments.

The Elac’s Debut series was released in 2016 to critical acclaim. The original B5 is an excellent speaker with the right punch and vibrancy; however, many noticed how it lacked the neutrality most audiophiles look for.

Enter the Debut 2.0 B5.2, a bookshelf speaker that offers impressive sonic neutrality and a balanced sound that will enrich your listening sessions without breaking the bank.
