What are audiophile speakers?

Audiophile speakers are any kind of high quality speakers that can be used in homes and offices. These can be wired and wireless speakers, systems of one or more speakers, with or without a sub-woofer, passive and active speakers.

Audiophile speakers differ from ordinary speakers in their design, color shades, construction, but most importantly, in the quality of reproduction. All this makes audiophile speakers a rather expensive pleasure that justifies every shekel invested in them.

Manufacturers of audiophile speakers are rarely known to a wide range of people, but this doesn’t prevent them from producing their own unique products and occupying one of the most demanded niches in the audio market. Of course, some of the more famous brands are also trying to produce a product that could compete in the audiophile market, but often they manage to produce several high-end models, which, even if they can be classified as audiophile speakers, nevertheless, don’t have such success with true connoisseurs of audiophile technology.

Can studio monitors be classified as audiophile speakers?

More likely No than Yes. The fact is that the task of studio monitors is the original display of the sound track, which is especially necessary in studio work. Audiophile speakers slightly embellish the sound so that the listener can get the most out of their listening experience. On the other hand, the JBL 104BT monitors have a slightly embellished bass and therefore listen to music tracks well on them. In addition, these monitors also have a Bluetooth connection, which is quite rare in studio monitors.

We believe that each thing should be used for its intended purpose, so we recommend using studio monitors in the studio, and audiophile speakers for listening to finished tracks.

What size and what type are audiophile speakers?

Speaker size doesn’t always determine its quality. The quality of a speaker depends on the quality of its speaker and cabinet, therefore, very often, a little-known company is able to produce a masterpiece and qualitatively surpass well-known brands. Nevertheless, dwelling on the size, it should be borne in mind that the larger the speaker cabinet, the more opportunity for the manufacturer to place high-quality parts in it, which will provide a wide range of frequencies and sound powers of an audiophile speaker.

As for the types, audiophile speakers can be small in size, following the example of the 512 model from the manufacturer Audioengine, they can be both floor-standing and shelf-type, differing in their size and sound quality.

What else does an audiophile speaker buyer need to know?

If you decide to purchase high-quality speakers, then you must to understand that their sound directly depends on the sound source, i.e. a music player, on the cables used to connect to the player, in the case of a Bluetooth connection, on a Bluetooth streamer, and, in the end, the sound quality depends on the quality of the music track itself.
