Speakers Reviews

The Sonos Roam 2 is a capable, user-friendly portable speaker, though unexceptional sound and a hike in price rob it of a full recommendation.

The Trapeze Reimagined is a retro-inspired design that delivers a thrilling, thoroughly modern performance.

The solo standmounts in Dali’s all-new Rubikore range fly the flag for both insight and entertainment and reveal the potential of the company’s new-era engineering.

The Go 4 blends form and function to impressive effect, and given its size and price, it delivers a sterling performance.

The Carmel 3 are beautifully made compact floorstanders that set high standards for clarity and precision but need pampering to shine.

Tivoli’s Model Two Digital lacks the requisite talent to challenge the front-runners at this price.

Q Acoustics’ flexible sound system is based on a pair of shorter-than-average floorstanders with amplification and Bluetooth built-in.

The smooth, fluid-sounding Revela 1 are an undemanding listen, but their inability to cut loose is a major issue.

The Lumina II Amator are a charming pair of standmounters, blending sumptuous looks with a fluid, full-bodied sound.

A good deal more in terms of dynamics, clarity and refinement is required if the Everboom is going to compete with the market’s best.
