Audio Pro C20 Active Stereo Speaker - Compact Sound Bluetooth Speaker for Music, Spotify, TV & Movies - AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Multiroom System, Built-in RIAA Amplifier - Black

Superior quality relative to its price. Pair with a subwoofer outstanding performance

I was looking for a wireless speaker for use in my kitchen and on my boat when planning a trip on the water. After listening to the Sonos Era 300, Sonos 5 and Audio Pro C20 here are my observations. If your preference is audio effects vs. audio quality, get the Sonos Era 300. Feature rich, spatial audio and least expensive, the Sonos Era 300 wins if sound quality is not the absolute priority. Sounds okay, big soundstage but not to my liking. The app works okay. Seemless integration with Apple Music worked well. I prefer my HomePods to the Era 300. My interest in Sonos as a single wireless speaker addition to my kitchen was prompted by a restaurant using a Sonos 5 in the dining area. While I went there to eat, I was immediately drawn to the low volume but full and satisfying sound coming from the Sonos 5. While I tried the Sonos era 300 first due to price and features, the model 5 sound is on a different level. Though the sound stage is not at the same level as the Sonos era 300 playing Spatial Audio, it still did a great job diminishing single sound source directionality with drivers in the enclosure stategically placed in different directions. The lack of bluetooth could be remedied by the use of a bluetooth dongle plugged into the line in jack on the Sonos 5. Sonos's support, over hour wait on hold and 2 day email response prompted me to keep looking. After some research and reading a few reviews on the Audio Pro C20, it sounded like a good option so I bought one. It competed favorably against the Sonos era 300 but sound quality vs. the Sonos 5 proved challenging with each speaker boasting strengths in different areas. I have an audiophile system that sounds amazing with great recordings and absolutely horrible with poor recordings. The Audio Pro C20 behaved similarly. Great recordings sound great, marginal recordings not good. On the other hand, the Sonos makes everything sound decent; not great but not bad. The Audio Pro is more affected by room acoustics. The Sonos 5 sounds heavy and bloated. The 5 has a tuning feature using the mic in your smart phone that does a good job equalizing. Mids and highs sound a bit muted but nonetheless detailed. Very good presentation at low volumes. Both speakers have bass and treble controls and a clunky but functional app. If the Sonos 5 had bluetooth, this would be a tougher decision. Poor customer support and lack of bluetooth from Sonos give the advantage to Audio Pro. Negative reviews I have read on the Audio Pro cite poor customer support as a major complaint so that may be an issue I was able to avoid. Bottom line, if you don't need a lot of connectivity options, you will likely be happy with either. If background low volume music is your application, the Sonos is likely a better fit. In the right room with good source material, I have to tip my hat to AP. If additional inputs affording the use of a record player or even an external DAC where the optical jack is needed, you will prefer the AP. Your application is key. They both excel in their respective areas of strength. Lastly, I found suspicious that all reviews on the AP are from customers who received free product through the Vine program. I can assure you that this review is for a product that was purchased.

This hi-fi speaker is pretty much everything as described by Audio Pro and online audio reviews. The speaker has a nice dynamic range. Especially for its size.

Initially gave a glowing review. There were frequent hiccups I was able to troubleshoot myself. But it became a major frustration, almost daily. Then, after about 4 months, the app stopped recognizing the speaker literally overnight. I can no longer use this speaker I saved up 550 bucks for, thinking it would last years. I am trying to make some sort of support ticket with the company and will be filing a bank dispute if they do not replace/refund/fix. *Amazon will likely remove this comment, but Vine recipients of free products are indeed fake reviews. Even if they are real people, they are not real consumers with honest feedback. Ignore those lies concerning 5 stars across the board. **updated to add there seems to be no actual customer support for USA customers. The link from their app goes to a dead error page. Their support website for USA customers is greyed out with no way to create a ticket. Filed a dispute. ***after filing a dispute through bank's fraud department, I was sent "phishing" emails supposedly sent from the company that makes the failed speaker...but did not contain letterhead, professional etiquette, nor any official company support links. My bank representative told me to delete and not to respond while they continue their investigation.

Disappointed with the sound quality and the speaker keeps shutting down. I also cannot sync it with the C5Mk2 I also bought.

Audio Pro is great, C20 is no exception! I have several of the wiim brain is the audio pro speakers. I needed something for a bedroom that would also work as a TV soundbar. The C20 was a great choice. Now we have the same music in every room! This thing gets loud enough for the space. It was super easy to setup with Google home and showed up in the wiim app automatically. Just great all around.

Don't let the photos sway you away from one of the best small to medium room speaker. This speaker isn't battery powered or portable. It's made to sit on a bookcase or shelf. Though it's not a bookshelf speaker. This speaker is currently sitting below my 55" Sony XBR series TV. There are numerous connections or ways to connect this speakers. I prefer the HDMI ARC. It's almost plug and play and setup is super easy. And also this speaker packs a punch that no other brands in this price level can match. Though it might plain Jane. Dont let the simplistic design fool you. This thing is loaded with features one a true audio can enjoy. If you're looking for a speaker to just play loud music and put out a lot of bass? Well this wasn't design for it. Like I mentioned earlier. This speaker sits below my Sony TV and it pairs it with very nicely. I was playing some classical music from Mozart and Antonio Vivaldi and omg, I never heard anything that is so rich and the mids has a warmth tone to it. The treble are sharp and crisp. Not tinny and non of that metallic sound to the highs. My living room is about 16x16 and it's not very big. But this speaker packs a punch with a full rich sounds that easily fills the room with a true sound that you don't get in many speakers. How does this perform? Well sound are very subjective but after owning other high end brands. This one amazes me I'm a way I'm starting to look at other models from Audio Pro. I'm truly impressed with this speaker and been playing all my favorite classical music on it. I highly recommend this for anyone who has a small to medium but not an open space design layout. This one speaker can do it all. Trust me, you won't be disappointed in Audio Pro.

Big audio equipment enthusiast here, since the 70s. And today I own lots of powered speakers, corded and cordless, so I can make some educated comments. SOUND: The AudioPro C20's sound quality is nothing short of FORMIDABLE! It's LOUD and it sounds VERY GOOD! I'm in awe at the selection of music I can throw at it, and it goes! With other speakers, I'd hit my limits sooner. SOURCES: My main sources have been Bluetooth, and Casting over WiFi. Both sound great, and I pay for high res audio streaming, which sounds phenomenal. I never got around to trying a turntable, but am glad the jacks/eq are there. SOFTWARE: This is why I took off half a star.. I don't like it. It's glitchy. The speaker will sometimes disconnect for no reason, and I have to go into it to toggle 'Bluetooth' again, even though it was already in that mode. Seems to happen with some frequency, and this PC has been fine with other speakers. In the end, I couldn't be happier with the sound this box gives me and the entire 1st floor of my house.
