Roxel Onyx Active Bookshelf Speakers, 100-Watt RMS Power, Wireless BT 5.0 Streaming, HDMI ARC, 3-Metre Speaker Cable, Dynamic Sound for Movies, Music, Office, Home Theatre (Oak)

I've been listening and buying hifi for about 36 years now. Always amplifiers or av receivers with different speaker combinations including 5.1 I decided to sell all my equipment and get two pairs of Roxel onyx, one in black and one in oak. The oak is a lovely finish by the way. I'll get the minus points out the way first. Both speakers have hiss on all the inputs, so if you listen to quiet music, you might hear it. The input light can be annoying and it can't be dimmed. I put a piece of black rubber over mine sometimes. The grilles are really stiff and would be better on magnets. Now the positives, Roxel have included all the inputs you could possibly need , RCA for analogue, optical/coaxial better if you've got it and hdmi arc( set your TV to pcm, if you get no sound. Sound, wow I don't miss my seperates anymore. They sound so detailed, I'm hearing sounds I've never heard before. This is accompanied by a smooth sound with the right amount of bass for me personally. Bluetooth is very good, close to CD and I've not had any breakups in my 10 feet range. In fact as soon as I turn on the speakers, my phone starts playing. CDs via analogue RCA or optical/coaxial are just glorious. In fact I tried some Q Acoustics 2020 speakers with a Marantz mcr603 and the Roxel sound better. So they probably sound better than the Q Acoustics active speakers which are three times more. Hdmi arc movies are great, very good clarity clear dialogue and deep bass. I watched FLIGHT with Denzal Washington and the aircraft sounded amazing with deep bass. The Crow was really enjoyable, loud and clear. Spotify via hdmi is a delight, Suzanne Vega headshots and Roxy Music Same old scene sounded like reference recordings. If you've got the space, these speakers not only destroy soundbars but beat most budget speakers and amps. Make sure you space them out for the best sound. INCREDIBLE VALUE £100-£110, thanks Roxel.

Staggered that these cost so little. I’ve owned loads of speakers - Tannoy, Kef, Monitor Audio, etc - but bought these to take on weekends away so I don’t have to rely on underpowered Bluetooth speakers, but also don’t have the faff of wiring up a full amp and speaker system. So pleased I did. The level of detail they produce is incredible. Great depth to the sound and the bass can really dig deep when you need it to. Bags of volume and an absolute joy to listen to across a wide range of music. I listen to everything, from bands, acoustic, classical, through to house and drum and bass - and they seem to handle everything brilliantly. Outrageous value at £100. I’d happily have paid double. Think I might buy some more before everyone else cottons on…

The Roxel Onyx Active bookshelf speakers are a delightful surprise for the budget-conscious audiophile. I approached these speakers with a healthy dose of scepticism, given their price point. However, I was pleasantly taken aback by the rich, detailed sound they produced. While they may not compete with high-end audiophile setups, they certainly punch above their weight. The midrange is where these speakers shine. Vocals are clear and intimate, allowing you to connect with the artist on a deeper level. Guitars, pianos, and other instruments have a natural warmth that is often missing in speakers at this price. The bass response, while not earth-shattering, is surprisingly deep and controlled. It provides a solid foundation for music and doesn't overpower the other frequencies. The highs are crisp and clear, without being harsh or fatiguing. One of the standout features is the versatility. The ability to connect via Bluetooth, RCA, or 3.5mm allows for seamless integration into any setup. Whether you're streaming from your phone, connecting a turntable, or using them with a TV, the Onyx delivers. While they might not create the most expansive soundstage, they still manage to immerse you in the music. For their size, they offer a surprisingly decent sense of space and depth. In conclusion, the Roxel Onyx Active bookshelf speakers are a fantastic option for music lovers on a budget. They offer a surprisingly mature sound with a good balance of frequencies. If you're looking for a pair of speakers to enjoy your favourite tunes without breaking the bank, these are definitely worth considering.

Looked at loads of bookshelf speaker reviews on other sites and plumped for these, especially as they have Hdmi ARC connection to use with my TV. So glad I did as this sounds far better than my old 2.1soundbar. The dialogue settings is excellent for normal TV viewing,music one great and movie button fantastic,for only two speakers,the sound quality is miles ahead of my old setup. On rear of main speaker you can find tune bass and treble of each of the three main sound effects.There are plenty of connection options but for TV hdmi is easiest as speakers switch on/off and volume is controlled by TV remote. Am no audiophile but these really are a revelation after my old setup. Recently tried an Dolby Atmos soundbar by a well-known brand at found that sounded dreadful,(especially playing music), personally think that's all marketing hype but each to their own. In all,I would happily recommend these quality bookshelf speakers,great price, solid build,all the connections you'd need and above all fantastic sound.

Absolutely amazing speakers. I have an apartment and fill the place with amazing sound quality

Buone casse, le uso per suonare la chitarra con gli effetti della scheda audio

Das sind bis jetzt meine besten Aktivboxen. Der Sound ist klar und kraftvoll. Auch die Sprache kommt deutlich rüber. Die mögliche Lautstärke für die kleinen Boxen ist sehr hoch und das ohne qualitative Mängel in der Übertragung. Die individuelle Reglung von Höhen und Bass ist sehr gut. Was man sich noch wünschen könnte, ist eine Balancereglung, damit die Lautstärke auch bei nicht optimaler Aufstellung richtig ist. Mit der FB können einige wenige Parameter verändert werden. Auch eine direkte Wiedergabe von Musikdateien vom USB Stick und eine Bluetoothverbindung sind möglich. Klar, das Netzteil hat einen Stecker der nicht in unser deutsches Netz passt. So muß man einen Adapter zusätzlich kaufen, das sollte noch verbessert werden, aber dafür ziehe ich keinen Stern von den sonst sehr guten Boxen ab.

Pure sound at a special price and high quality

Fantastic speakers. Very well made. Look really expensive and they sound as good as my really expensive Bose Speakers.

Je confirme elles sont impressionnantes, pour le prix c'est magnifique. Utilisation pour écoute de musique en BT. J'ai une paire d'enceintes Advance Zeneo, elles sont meilleures bien sûr, plus puissantes et complétement sans fil, mais presque 10 fois plus chères ! Dommage qu'il faille encore un câble entre les deux enceintes. Je confirme qu'il faut bien un adaptateur pour utilisation en France (c'est dingue cette histoire, depuis le temps que ça a été signalé dans les commentaires...)
