 THE LOWER EAST SIDE MEDIA SPEAKERS

The design of the speakers is quite simple (yet somewhat attractive) and not what I’d call exciting in any way, however the materials used are of high quality (mainly wood and metal) giving both speakers a solid/sturdy feeling.

Each of the speakers feature a 3.5" driver (woofer) and a 0.75" silk dome tweeter while measuring 23cm in height, 12.4cm in width and 17.3cm in depth with a total weight of 1.285kg. Unfortunately the grilles are not removable so i couldn't risk damaging the speakers in order to take a closer look at the woofer/tweeter.

The volume control knob has a nice feeling to it and also doubles as the power on/off button (press it inwards to turn them on/off) while right next to it we see 3.5mm mini jack headphone output.

As mentioned most of the unit is made from high quality wood but it is this red stripe after which the Lower East Side Media Speakers got their name from (the people over at Audyssey say that the stripe is connected to the red brick buildings of the Lower East Side).

The Audyssey logo is also placed on the right side of each speaker but it's quite faint.

A sticker with the unit's electrical requirements and country of manufacture is present at the bottom.

A single passive bass radiator is placed at the rear of each speaker (no wonder bass is their strong point).

At the lower rear end of each speaker we find an Optical Audio input (Toslink), 3.5mm mini jack input (aux), the two interconnect holes and the AC power plug.

I haven't used such a thin interconnect cable like the one supplied by Audyssey in over 5 years but it should be more than enough for a stereo speaker set.
