Been looking for MK3 for a while, yet it seems the only option is to import from China =(

Both subs will be available.

We are only taking in 3pcs of the 1010 and 1080 this batch. We will also order in a single unit of X4 just for the sake of testing it.

Swans M-200MKIII coming any soon? I think most of the people are looking for this model. It's very popular coz it's said to be better than the A5+ at lower price.

Audio Engine speakers are quite overrated. If "they" say it is better than A5, it is a hell lot better in reality. M200MKiii will come in about 5 pcs on this order only. Since we do not know what is the demand like. M200mkii will also be available, it is cheaper than the mkiii by 50%.

Yea, most of the reviews are claiming that. That's why we are glad that you're bringing in the Hivi Speakers =) I just realize the X4 price is about the same as KRK Rokit 8, Aktimate Mini+ and the Yamaha HS80M. Dunno how it would fare against these few speakers coz so far there ain't a lot of reviews on the Hivi against these few models hmm.gif

X series are studio monitors, so we aren't gonna focus on it too much. We will just order 1 unit of X4 in as demo. Customer can back order if they want but we most likely won't officially carry it. HiVi is renown for its warm and lush sound signature. The X series are made out of cast alloy, and from experience these tend to sounds rather bright and up in the face.

Please take the prices below with a grain of salt, prices may be 5%-8% +/-

S3W SE - RM 189
S3W MKii - RM 209
A30 - RM 329
M10 - RM 329
A532 - RM 359
M100MKii Bluetooth - RM 639
D1010-IV - RM 359
D1080-IV - RM 489
M50W - RM 719
M200 MKii - RM 689
M200 Mkiii - RM 1199
T200B - RM 1599
M60 5.1 - RM 1999

We will try to keep it cheaper than US and Australasia price.

I'm using studio monitor for casual listening, and I find it to be very accurate as compared to consumer speakers.

Should I go for Soundsticks III or wait for the M50W?

Save up more while waiting for the beast to arrive and get the Swan MK3 instead. I think the MK3 one of the flagship of the monitor speaker from Swan. I was looking everywhere for it before i bought my HS80m. If only the MK3 would hv been here early, I would definitely go for it. Lower price and reviews are all very good.

Wait, so you are saying at closer range it doesn't sound as good to you? The reason why you think separation is not as good at nearfield is because of the sheer size of the speaker. It has a very large and overwhelming sound. The M200Mk3 when used nearfield is even more overwhelming which is why we have been stressing not to buy the M200mk3 for nearfield use despite whatever you may read online.

The X series is the king of nearfield. I have the X3 with me now but X4 is the sweet spot. X6 is too huge, never gotten a chance to listen to it yet.

Just a friendly advice, all the X series will see a price hike very soon.

What's the current selling price of X6?

I can absolutely agree, the X6 is FANTASTIC!!!
I have listend for a week now and I am thrilled with them.
Cheers

Mind to write up a short review of the X6 speakers? Kinda interested in it. Any QC problem so far? Coz from the feedbacks here it seems that this Swans product seems quite fragile.
