Thought I’d give another one of these ‘HiFi quality’ devices another go. Last one I tried was an Apple HomePod, which was far too bassy and muddy in the mids.
Had the Echo Studio on for a little bit now and have to say... Meh. It’s fine for what it is, which is a convenience product (background music). Still, I like to try these products as these companies have some serious money behind them and I like to hope they can come up with something interesting that can maybe one day replace a traditional separates system.
I don’t even think it’s a case where adding a 2nd would help the quality. Who knows, I certainly won’t be finding out.
To describe the sound (being harsh and evaluating as a piece of hifi) I would say that it’s veiled in the mids, splashy at the top end and worst of all, too muddy in the bass. Bass does go low, but it’s just not controlled enough.
Will add to this after a couple of days getting used to it.
