Review: 6-Inch (306PMKII) Keep It Simple Stupid - After months of research even going into tons of stores. I'll cut to the chase of my simple small setup that didn't cost a fortune. 2 - 6-Inch (306PMKII) I'm wondering what the 8's sound like 1- SMSL100 DAC Money well spent (Bluetooth, Fiber optics, and supposedly from other reviews I can add a subwoofer to the rca out.) Will update this in the future. Cables 2 - 25ft xlr cables I was tired of using boring rca cables 2 - power cables for the speakers Obviously included 1 - power cable for the DAC Obviously included 1 - Fiber optic cable from my tv to the DAC. Why? because I noticed a big difference in sound quality from using bluetooth since I have had these. Since August no subwoofer added to my system but I do plan on getting one eventually. That is all that I am using. No overpriced home audio equipment. I don't have thousands of wires running around my room or wall or cottage that I live in. I use two remotes one for the tv and one for the DAC. I can run my pc via Bluetooth to the DAC but recently I noticed a big difference in quality from using the fiber optic cable. So I run desertcart Music from my tv now(Settings set to HD and up quality in the app). I went with 25ft cables so I can move them around in my cottage with no problem. I have cranked this up full max and have not noticed much distortion. I do this on a Monday when the neighbors are at work and I pretty much have the grounds to myself. It gets loud and the bass is pretty intense. Subwoofer will be next and I'm not sure what I want to do with that. Either a JBL to pair it or to try a $100 compact sub a space savor and to learn from it. I listen to anything that doesn't suck so sorry to you mumble rap crap fans. Classic Rock to the 60's even real hip hop 2 Pac Ja Rule etc...... The speakers are crisp and just right. Klipsch was too tingy. Kef and others out of my price range but sounded incredible to but I wanted a simple small setup and this fit the bill. Pictures and video coming soon 1-20-2023
Review: Excellent General Use Computer Speakers for Non-Professionals - I don't usually review many products, but these speakers are so exceptional I had to take a moment. I am not an audio professional, or audiophile, and don't pretend to be. I bought these for computer use. I had Klipsch 2.1, the old ones, but subwoofer appears blown, and new ones cut corners on quality (imagine a corporation doing that, color me shocked, LOL). I bought used Logitech 623 2.1s, they have good bass, and are fine for most pop music and rap, with robust thumping bass, but their upper and mid is brutal on any remotely sophisticated music where you want to hear something besides bass or a synthesizer. Klipsch had 2 speakers, one for highs, one for mids, in each satellite speaker, M623 only had one speaker. I ordered these after serious research, and am blown away. The clarity of sound is astounding. I feel like the piano or violin or guitar is being played right next to me. I keep them permanently on 7 volume, adjust with computer, madcapped volume totally sufficient for my computer, and obviously much bigger and more powerful than most smaller 2.1 sets. Without a sub, that thump for some rap gone, but this is not a product deficiency, I'm going to pony up for sub now that know these are awesome. I noticed a significant, massively, improvement in sound quality placing them on stands. I bought the IsoAcoustics ISO-L8R155. Insanely overpriced, the stands, but didn't see any other options I liked. Don't even think of buying these without stands. The difference is astounding. I was really on the fence about shelling out about $275 for two speakers, by the time you pay tax and shipping. I got the Logitech $40 used on Craigslist. These were worth every penny, and would be even if they cost $100 more. The clarity and purity of the sound is almost impossible to overstate, versus even really good computer speakers. These speakers actually made me go back and listen to tons of music hadn't heard in awhile just to appreciate the richness of voices and instruments. One final note, I had a buddy in college decades ago who had JBLs blow on him, and they replaced them. That stuck out in my mind all these years later, when Klipsch unfortunately began cutting corners and selling inferior products. The tech guy at JBL Pro was super knowledgeable, and I feel like that factored into the decision a bit. Do not hesitate to buy these for computer use. They are worth every freaking penny and you will not regret the decision. You'll find room on even a small desk, and be happy you did, LOL. I might have gotten the 6" speakers, as they don't cost much more, If I had it to do over again, and will probably get the 8" for my home. Just to beat it to death, the clarity of the sound, the purity, the truth of it, is almost impossible to overstate. I am listening to John Denver, after Bruno Marrs, after Mariah Carey, after Benzino and NWA, and simply can't ever go back to cr$ppy 2.1 sets after just a few days of these.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Am I correct in my thinking that you connect the sub to your audio interface, and then your studio monitors will connect from the sub?**
A: Yes but not necessarily, with the right connection wires it can be run from any type of input. I run a 1/8" to two 1/4" (L & R) into the sub and two female XLRs to 1/4" cables into my monitors. Sounds amazing.

**Q: Can i hook up both speakers to a single mini-plug on my pc? if so, what are the specifications of the wire(s) i need to purchase separately.**
A: Yes you can. Aside from a mixer or device in the middle, you have two choices; a standard 3.5mm to RCA cable, or 3.5mm to 'balanced' L/R XLR pro-audio connectors. Trust me, you want the balanced. With the standard RCA cable these speakers suffer from impossible LOUD ground loop problems - hiss, hummming...  The XLR cables quieted mine right down as other's have reported - I have them connected to the headphone-out my PC's USB SoundBlaster 3 sound adapter. I bought my cable on Amazon, 3.5mm male to stereo XLR male.

**Q: Does it come w/ the 2 xlr or trs cables it needs??**
A: No cables included with my unit. I recommend Mogami.

**Q: If I use the TRS input, will I be able to use the XLR output?**
A: Yes, you can use the balanced Tip-Ring-Sleeve 1/4" input (that might come from your preamp) with the balanced XLR (microphone-type) output to your satellite speakers. Shouldn't be any issues unless one of your cables have a pin wired in conflict. This is exactly how I have it configured using a Duet 2 and LSR-308s.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty darn good
*by R***. on November 18, 2025*

I was deciding between this and other subs, like Klipsch 120SW. I got this because it's a studio sub that has balanced inputs, and has extended LF. At first, I wasn't impressed, but I had my settings wrong. It also made some coil noise, but that went away after I broke it in, which took like an hour. This thing can really bump. Granted, it's not a 12" sub, but for a 10" it goes really low. It can get loud too. I'm running it from my iMac --> Audient iD14 --> sub. It's paired with KRK Rokit 7" studio monitors. Sounds fantastic. I'll keep testing it just to make sure I'm keeping it. So far, so good. It vibrates my entire house because of the extended low frequency.
