Wow, what a great set of speakers (SP-BS22), they have already paid for themselves in one night.
I can't believe a set in this price range can get you this level of immersion.
They are a no-brainer buy, even if you listen to them for a few sessions you are under $100 and can easily be handed down/re-purposed.
Once my cable comes in, I'm going to A/B test these with the Logitech's (Just to see how far these blow them out of the water).
All listening is done with the Polk Audio psw10, I'm sure the difference would be even more apparent without.
To sum up the below from my short period of listening:
The Logitech's were lacking majorly in the mid -> lower range, and on the high end.
On the high end, there was also significant improvements over the Logitech's.
Any song with a predominant drum/percussion instruments shine.
The woofer and tweeter is integrated nicely on the SP-BS22.
I went through some of my reference tracks:
- Paco de Lucía - Fuente y Caudal:
-Entre dos aguas: Simply stunning the separation/clarity in the percussion and guitar was phenomenal. Cranked this up, haven't heard it reproduced this well in years.
- Pink Floyd (A mixture of Albums):
- Terminal Frost: The Saxophone work in this song really stuck out, sounded great.
- The Great Gig in The Sky: Nothing special, perhaps due to hearing such a good rendition in person recently.
- Comfortable Numb: The whole song and especially solo near the ending delivered so nice.
- Dire Straits (A mixture of Albums):
- Money for Nothing: First song played on the BS22's, delivered with a much more full clear sound that the Logitech's. Powerful percussion and guitar singing through.
