These lightweight powerful speakers really enhanced our home audio experience. They provide a lot of sound in a relatively small package.Interface: The remote feels solid and well-made. We've had zero issues with the remote. Contrary to other reviews, we find that the system works fine without the remote too. The top buttons are fine for turning it off and on, changing volume, and changing inputs.Aux In RCA: The sound from our record player plays crisply and clearly. Make sure you have a phono pre-amp or that your turntable has line-level output.Bluetooth: Bluetooth works great, producing big sound from our phones, etc. Pairing is really quick. Look for the "SineAudio" device in your bluetooth settings.Optical: PCM Stereo audio from our TV works great. Be sure to set your TV to output PCM or it won't work. The sound is a lot better than the TV's built-in speakers and also a lot better than any of the soundbars we've tried. The greater range of frequencies produced is noticeable when playing on our Nintendo Switch, watching movies, etc. There's zero or near-zero lag.Subwoofer: [original review] Untested. The bass reproduction on the speakers is good enough that we haven't added a subwoofer yet, so I don't know how well the subwoofer output works. [2025-03-17 update:] The subwoofer output works great. It's puts out an LFE signal that drives our subwoofer perfectly. Make sure to use a quality cable. Our first cable introduced a 60hz hum in the subwoofer output. The subwoofer makes a huge difference! It would be great to have adjustable crossover to play a little less bass out of the Saiyin speakers, but at this price I can't complain.I'm really happy with these speakers, especially at this price point. If I had to change anything it would be these:1. This should include a longer wire for connecting the left speaker to the right. It barely reaches from one side of our 65" TV to the other when routing it out-of-sight. For the price, just buy the speakers and some extra wire. It's still a really good deal.2. The news/movie/music equalizer settings don't make a huge difference. Bass/Treble buttons on the remote would be better.3. It would be good to be able to turn off the front lights on the right speaker. It's easy enough to cover them with gaffer tape so this isn't a major criticism at all.

I was looking for a capable bookshelf sized Bluetooth speaker. Only most I seen at this price point have tiny mid woofers. Like 4â€, even seen one 3.7â€! No way! Came across these. Seen they had a 5†woofer, for I think it was $71 or $76. Sold! Very capable speakers, a lot of bass for size, speaker cabinets feel nice and solid. Highs, and mid tones are well balanced. But use the EQ your phone has. It may also help to reduce the bass. These things do have surprising bass for size. Also, on back of remote, it states tips on achieving less bass by pressing “News†or “Music†button on the remote. I am having a slight issue with a light buzzing type sound when between songs or nothings playing. Still working from that. May just need placed in another location. I hope the maker of this speaker sees this. Please do larger bookshelf speakers, like one’s with 6.5†and even an 8†version. Also, floor standing one’s would be truly amazing! Thank you for a wonderful product!

I bought these speakers with the intention of making a review and because they appeared to be a possible great value. At the time of my purchase they were around a hundred dollars, shortly thereafter they were offering twenty dollars off. These speakers look the part with the soft dome tweeters as well as a subwoofer output, which was the primary decision I chose these to review.Since I'm sure you can read the specs provided, I'll give you the additional ones that may or may not be in the description.4" midrange/woofer1" soft dome tweeterRCA/3.5mm/Optical/Coax/BT inputsSubwoofer OutputRated 36x2 Output PowerI'll be honest and up front. The sound of these speakers is not bad and for the intended audience, I'd say these sound fine. For the price, you should not expect miracles.I have a device called the Amp Dyno for measuring output power from amplifiers. I was eager to find out the "true" power of these speakers. My measurements are posted below:RMS Power at 1kHz8 ohms - 15W x 2 at 1% THD4 ohms - 28W x 2 at 1% THDThe speakers are 4 ohms, so the 4 ohm measurement is what you should care about. Not quite the 36x2 rating, but not too far off. Some people will say the included power supply is not large enough to provide this much output, but my tests show the power supply delivered 4A even though it's rated at 2A.Now on to the major flaw....it's the pop sent over RCA to the subwoofer when using the sub line output. It's not only a turn on, but also a turn-off pop. SaiYin should've added a relay to silence this as it could potentially damage your connected subwoofer. Too bad! Sound quality with the Polk Audio PSW10 added was awesome. Full and dynamic. But then if you turn off the speakers "POP" goes the subwoofer.The other concern is the functions of the speaker system are reliant on the included wireless remote control. If you lose the remote, you can't switch inputs. There is no manual volume control or input selection on the speakers themselves. This can be a problem as the remote is small and losing it is inevitable.Overall very good speakers for the money and as I stated before perfect for the 95% who just want better sound from their TV or bluetooth device (cell phone, tablet, etc). If the subwoofer output worked without the pop, I would've given these a 8.5/10. However, knowing the subwoofer out is a great feature you won't be able to use, I'd give them a 7/10.
