HiVi-Swans OS-10 Mini Powered Speakers

For those who aren't aware, HiVi sells completed speakers, and I just wanted to make a post saying that they're pretty good! At least the ones I bought.

HiVi-Swans OS-10 HiFi Stereo Speakers, Bluetooth 5.0 Active Computer Bookshelf Speakers - 4'' Dynamic Woofer, Powered Desk Speakers 62w RMS with Touch Control for PC/Phone/TV https://a.co/d/cMzKvAA

These are on sale right now, so I bought a pair for a friend in need, and I'm quite impressed with them. Seems to be the T20 tweeter and B4N midwoofer? And they are powered with RCA, coax, optical and Bluetooth inputs. All of the cables you might need are included with the speakers, and they even come with a remote (and batteries!) I don't have any of my equipment to take any measurements, but subjectively the sound is very full bodied for their size, with impressive bass and a very calm (almost subdued) top end that does not call attention to itself. I think this laid back sound signature fits these speakers quite well, as most speakers I've heard in this size range have sounded shouty and anemic.

Anyways, if any of y'all are in the mood for gift giving, or just need a set of TV speakers or something, check these out! I think you'll be pleasantly surprised

Thanks for letting us know about your impression of these speakers. I’ve seen some pretty good reviews about them, which I ignored mostly because I remember the same raving reviews about a popular DIY design using very similar (if not the same) drivers, namely the Overnight Sessions. When I finally built them, it was huge disappointment.
Anyway, it’s interesting to see/hear for myself what is all about. Do they have auto sense function and auto turn off? It might be beneficial for a TV set.

To be honest with you, I'm not sure. I gave them to my friend, so I haven't used them since I made my post. I believe you have to manually switch inputs, but you can do so from a control panel on the top of one of the speakers, or by using the remote control. I'm sure a quick email to them would clear things up. I actually liked the Overnight Sensation's, but I definitely prefer these, especially given their value proposition over the Carmody speakers. The pair I bought is being used for TV, and for that purpose they are perfect. A quick switch to Bluetooth, and they're not bad for music too in a pinch 🙂
