Edifier Spinnaker: Review

The modish Spinnaker speaker system has been gaining a lot of attention because of its satanic looks. The red colored model has enamored a lot of users. It looks like a horn that is bent at its tips. This wireless Bluetooth system provides phenomenal sound quality. You can also wire it to your computer or television. It is undoubtedly expensive but the price is no match to its awesome audio fidelity. We live in a world of ghetto blasters and smartphones and amidst such monotony, it feels good to experience such a unique speaker system. Tim Burton has given shape to his wild imagination via this model.

You get two different colors black and red. There are three drivers in a speaker and they have taken pains to assure that each driver is separately amplified. There won’t be many differences in the speaker systems. The left speaker has been designed to be the active one and the right one is passive. However, you will not notice any changes in the size of the speakers. They are taller than the usual Bluetooth pairs. Most of the times, people fail to notice the speaker which is clad in cloth. Beneath the active speaker, you will find the port to connect other devices. It might be a bit challenging to connect the cables as there is too little space.

Though it’s not an easy job to stuff the cables in the guides, you can stop worrying about it once the job is complete. Each horn comprises of a tweeter and a 70mm cone. It has the power to influence a room that is fairly large in size. When you look beneath the speaker, you will find a bunch of wires that help connect to the passive speaker, a subwoofer out and also a USB connection in case any software updates are required.

It would have been good if there were volume control on speakers. Unfortunately you have to use your remote or audio source to adjust the volume. One of the most appealing factors is the wireless remote. It has the shape of a dome and you can charge it using the USB. You can change the volume by rotating the dome. If you want to increase the volume, you need to rotate it in the clockwise direction and for lowering the volume, all you have to do is rotate in the anticlockwise direction.

The mute button is the one that is seen at the top of the remote. However you will not find any playback controls in this model. The original challenge lies in recharging. Although a USB cable is provided, in order to recharge the remote, you need a computer or a wall charger. The Spinnaker system backs A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth models.

The sound system is powerful for this model and you can enjoy phenomenal audio experience whether you increase or decrease the volume. Your remote will have a volume control button and it not connected to the sound source’s volume. Increase both the levels to the peak and listen to soul soothing music. Unlike the standard music systems, the circular speakers diversify sound in all directions. Some of the customers might not enjoy this experience.

Whatever said and done, you are going to fall in love with this horn like speaker system the very instance you see it.
