I really appreciate you taking the time to measure these.

I wonder if the model name "OS-10" isn't a nod to Paul Carmodys Overnight Sensations? These clearly resemble them. Great video! Especially the FR graphs of various distances from the wall and possible explanations for the dips and peaks. Good looking speakers! I like the fabric on the sides a lot!

I just assumed they were playing on apple's operating system.

Beautiful speakers! I am using D1100 for desktop and can't hear difference when placing them away from wall

Bass C4. Mids and Highs are a shape charge. :)

They sound great but just 2 qeustion’s how do they stack up against the edifier r2000db, and does it come with front covers to keep dust and grime away from the woofers?

Face the port to the corner of the room with the speaker angled towards the center of the room the 30" off of the corner. Food for thought!

That's how my home theater speakers are positioned.

Loudspeaker Cook Book is great. The newest edition includes DSP.

I need to grab a copy that edition!

I have a mac mini. May I know the best way to connect these to a mac mini to get the best sound quality ? The provided RCA cable connection makes it sound compressed.

I like the look myself, pretty snazzy. Knobs FTW. Can you swap the woofer to see if there's any design/sound difference ?

Nope, this thing is sealed up tight. I can't figure out how to get it apart without breaking something.

Is the body of the speakers made from plastic or MDF? I've read somewhere that they are made completely of plastic.

Honestly not sure. It feels solid and does not seem to resonate.

Should I constantly power these on and off when using it or is it okay to have it left Power On? Does this have any long term effect if I don't power these OFF when I'm not using it? I am currently using these on my PC primarily only

I'm not a fan of the touch panel, I found it difficult to use. I had them located on a high shelf where you can't reach them, and I just use the remote control.

How do you connect a subwoofer to the HiVi-Swans OS-10 though? It would have been perfect had they included a sub-out.

There is no sub out, so you can't.

Have you tried both? There are very few reviews of the swans

Forget the measurements use your ears . because sound/music is 100% subjective when it hits the brain just try different positions and you will know immediately which position you prefer . if you don t have the space for optimal listening then condition the ' Listener ' not the room .

Just got the new Swan Os10. Not impressed, doesn't sound 'live' with my expensive DAC. my Creative T20 which is >10yrs old sounded much better!!! Waste of money, reminded me why I got rid of the swan M200 speakers just after a few days. Can't compare to REAL audiophile ones.... for me at least.

I wish it could be paired with a subwoofer.

No offense for $150 I would get the harman kardon Studio 4 or 6. I know its not the same class of speaker, but its portable and has amazing bass. I have bought dozens of BT speakers and so far I like the harman kardons Onyx series. I am sure the audiophiles will say its a terrible speaker cause it colors the music with bass.

Ummm ... , what makes an option, honest , Or dishonest ?
