Congrats..Really good video and an excelent topic.... I also ordered some medium budget drivers from that brand but my "fears" were always related to the datasheet values. At least for me that I can't validate them the same way you did.

Thank so much for doing these tests. I'd be more interested in seeing if their full range style drivers were up to snuff.

I have their small 2.5" fullrange speakers in my car dash and they sounds really good, with some filter/DSP it´s quite impressive together with bass drivers in the front doors and subwoofer in back.

I bought this 5" a couple of months ago for a 3 way project. I hope they do reasonably well. Wayting to see your build results.

I bought the coaxial (white with black tweeter) for my car and they sound very well! With a little research i found that they're Cabasse 😮

I’ve always been curious about this. Neat.

Awesome idea for a video. The specs being way off is what I expected, but I'm very curious what you can pull off in a speaker design using Aliexpress drivers.

Would love to see a bookshelf build with thease!

Just before discovering this video I had ordered the one you mentioned as interesting on the site. That one with a "gold" and a black variant. I took the black one. We'll see. My primary use is to play bass 🎸 on it so I don't really have the same needs. For instance low E on the bass is 42Hz and there's no reason the speaker would ever encounter lower frequencies.

Thanks for the video. I was always curious how the Ayima drivers perform

"But 30 core much better" I literally drobbed and laughed on the floor.

Can you make a video on the units of measurement used & what they mean? Please. 😊

good video thanks!, quick question i have an empty box (old focal 707s) and love the build quality of the cabinet, hence looking for best options for 2 way bookshelf and crossover, any recommendations? thanks in advance.

i've ordered the ne66 - neodymium tweeter with silk dome from the company and was pretty happy about it

That 5" uses the same exact frame as the Dayton epique. Not at all surprising... Chinese common practice is to manufacture products for US companies and then "borrow" those designs/materials to sell house-branded products via ali or banggood, or direct to Chinese markets. Because IP is meaningless and there's no legal recourse. Lol

î was always curious about the leather surround speakers

I would have been curious if you would buy a pair, to see parameter consistence. The 5" driver seems quite fair, but if you buy a pair and one has Qts of 0,4 and the other one 0,8 than is just a magnetic paperweight...

They sell proper dynaudio speakers on their, the flagship ones. They would be among the most expensive single 6 inch drivers they have. The esotars beautiful drivers.

Keep in mind that AliExpress is simply a storefront type selling system, basically the same as ebay. So all of those products are sold from various different brick and mortar stores.

Thank you i was wondering if it is worth to buy. I have my response

Aiyiama is very good stuff, you did test theire mini hifi audio? (I will watch it, this is my first time at your channell)

Hi, can I ask if you sent your speaker measurement results back to Aiyima? I was thinking this would be beneficial for people looking into purchasing speakers in the future and get Aiyima to 'lift their game'. Cheers J

Very difficult. You can't be shure if its original or a fake. And the tsp Parameter can chance. 🤔🤔🤔

That woofer will emit a loud sound when _you are not in use_ . Now wait a minute....

In my country the shipping and import fees when buying from parts express/ other sites based in the US is ridiculous, you often pay more than what you paid for the product just for shipping and import fees for example i bought a 75$ 10" driver and the shipping was nearly 50$ and 20$ import fees I've been buying drivers off aliexpress since and have had pretty great results for the most part (generally haven't spent more than 50$ on a driver from them but what I've purchased so far definitely has me impressed for the most part)

The 6 inch is the exact same speaker they make fake focal speakers from they just slap focal decals on it and charge $400 plus

Marius, the six inch speaker driver is paper cone or metal? And the 5" speaker is metal cone or paper? Regards from Portugal 🇵🇹 Edit: do they have both a rubber surround or foam surround? 😂

The cone is metal and the surround is how you call it, rubber.

Just the very fact that as you went through the descriptions of these speakers, I do not even trust the specs (or the charts) that they show. Getting words lost in translation is one thing, but specifications is a whole other can of worms. I just don't trust it.

Hi Marius, are you suggesting the 6 inch speaker would be good for midbass in a door or maybe a leaky sealed box? What was the vas on that speaker?

@AudioJudgement

Watch the video, the Vas number is there (don't remember the value). Regardless of Vas, Qts is over 1. Which means, this speaker is designed for infinite baffle / open baffle setup (or oversized sealed box).

I'll bet it's a total knockoff. The Vifa one didn't have a copper pin. Vifa is also long gone, and the ring radiators are only made by Peerless and ScanSpeak. They measure much better than this one.

Today they are talking about cores , because is a way to create a relationship with maximum watts, more cores more watts

Not sure if they offer them... but when I was considering refoaming vs replacing 6.5" woofers for a Phillips Woox mini-stereo... I discovered some interesting things... First... I tried replacing the original drivers with some Sony and Aiwa drivers, that I had collected earlier. Both sounded like complete TRASH compared to the Original Phillips woofers. Next, I looked up the Company and Driver markings on the Woofers... They were from a Taiwan company called EastTech. These were MUCH higher quality drivers, than what is put inside of most typical boom box systems. According to what I read, these were specifically made for the special Passive radiator speakers... with a much longer Excursion ...to be able to deliver greater bass levels, without any potentials for over-excursion based distortions. And this made sense... as even at max volume levels, and the deepest and most powerful bass laden songs... I was unable to get these speakers to show ANY signs of Distortions. In fact, they had the most Deep, Accurate, and "Musical" Sounding Bass... that Ive ever heard (up to that point). No port Chuffing / Distortions. No "Muddy" sounding Bass. Very punchy and "Excited" levels of Bass response (adjustable, by tweaking the Bass EQ levels). In the End, I decided to just get the drivers Re-Foamed... and they were fantastic... until the foam on the Woox passives themselves, rotted out. Unlike the Woofers, there was no easy repair for the Woox passive units themselves.. as they used back to back passive that have like two expansion rings each (allowing for much greater excursion, than any other standard Passive Radiators). I believe I have seen certain WOOX devices that were made with all Clear Plastic (Rot Proof), but I never got hold of that version. Anyway... I just thought Id mention Easttech... as they seem to be much higher quality than typical Chinese made speakers. Of course, if you want pure "Audiophile Nirvana" ...get brand new drivers from Humanspeakers dot com. Search model " EPI 100v " speakers.. and click on the links to the two listed drivers. You will only need a single crossover cap for these, as the woofers are designed with heavier gauge coils, which automatically filter out the Highs from going into the woofers. These are Sealed speakers, and will provide Powerful, deep, punchy, accurate beyond belief, BASS. The special Tweeters, are Inverted (concave), and produce one of the Widest and 3d Holographic Sound-Stages, that you will likely ever Experience in your life. Almost the entire room, becomes the "Sweet Spot". Furthermore... these speakers sound insane, no matter where you place them... even if they are partially blocked, under a desk...etc. Also, you could be blindfolded, spun around about 10 times... and asked to try to Find the speakers... and FAIL to be able to do so... because the EPIs are so Holographic... that you dont hear the "Driver". Its as if the audio is holographically projected into the 3d space... without you being able to tell where the projected source is coming from. Meaning... its as if the band members are actually IN the room itself, playing Live. Ive never heard a speaker that even comes close to these. These speakers completely DESTROYED the local $3000 speakers, at the local high end Audio Shop. I got my EPI 100v Speakers used + re-foamed, for about $100. But if you cant find them locally, and or do not want to get them from Ebay... then buy the drivers directly from the site I mentioned. The guy that operates the site, used to work for the company.. and he hand makes the new drivers. Ive never tested his drivers... so I cant tell you if they are as good or as Improved as he states. All I can say, is that the EPI 100v speakers are a magical Audiophile level speaker, that will blow away your every expectation. You will hear completely NEW things in the Music that you have listed to, for several Decades... due to the powerful magnets of the drivers, that have some of the smallest levels of Distortions, due to Superior Magnetic power and cone control. EPI / Genesis made a lot of other designs, that feature the same drivers. At least one of these had a passive radiator design, with a larger cabinet. Ive yet to hear that version... and I do wonder if they would make them even better than they already are. That said, Ive also read at least one other post, stating the smaller EPI 100v speakers, sounded more punchy than the larger sized EPIs. I have no idea which model they were referring to, however. I believe all the drivers you would need, would cost less than $300. The box itself, is nothing special... so would be pretty easy to replicate. The single capacitor is pretty cheap, and is very easy to find online (or you can buy directly from him, for a bit of a markup. Kind of Understandable, as nobody can undercut the big Amazon sellers).

You have to visually know the drivers,you cannot read the technical details on any China made units they lie,repeat they lie.

what's the problem with a cheap look? and looks are subjective anyway!

Самое неприятное то, что когда ты докупишь еще два динамика, у них могут быть совершенно другие параметры.

I wonder why there are so huge differences between measures and data sheets displayed on AliExpress. One option is that they simply cheat and make data sheets that correspond to the speaker they copied and not the ones they produce. Another worse option is that it is a lottery. Maybe they actually measured one speaker they've produced but the quality of production is random and if you buy a second set of speakers they'll be totally different. It's worse because if you want to make a stereo system you'll never have left and right giving similar sound. Maybe they've tested 10 speakers of a model and they kept data from one of them that seemed commercially better? If so yo have 10% chance to get a speaker matching roughly the dataset?

very sketchy drivers from Aliexpress.

If you were able to pick up each speaker with only one hand it cannot be taken seriously bro. There are other professional websites where they actually compare two or three types of speakers by listening to them using very, very expensive microphones to give the viewers an idea.
