No, it's more but loose, uncontrolled. But I do think they had too much foam. I wish to try those foam that are more airy and less dense.

I do agree with you as the specs do appeal to me altho am curious to the following

1. The D100 is a non-ported cabinet design so I presume the bass dept would be reduced but I'd assume better control and detail, can someone confirm that (as it is the Edifiers I used to use are abit boomy as is even on stands (unballasted) so I can do with less impact but better detail)

2. The one appealing feature is that it has an optical in (previously used an ODAC to channel in audio from my PC to the R1700BT @ 24bit/96khz) but I'd like to know using the realtek onboard optical out what's the maximum bitrate playable thru Hivi's DSP as I frequently listen to SACD rips.

3. Are HiVi's sensitive to placement including distance from wall and toe?

Thanks

I think you got it wrong on the bass. I saw a review on S880 vs D100. I was going to get the used S880 but cancelled my plan after watching the Vietnamese review. You can find them on youtube and try listen to it via speaker.

Thanks but I think quite a few would disagree that a youtube audio playback review is something that one would consider as a measurable...and yes, I did saw that video

So did you bought one already?
