Package Content & Design
Everything comes well-protected. There are SonicGear StudioBox 2-HD, stereo 3.5mm to RCA audio cable, power adaptor, optical cable and user manual in the package. As usual, take your time to go through the guide.
Lovely, elegant and stylish design! Period. StudioBox 2-HD looks great no doubt. And it comes in 2 colours – mahogany and walnut. FYI, mine is walnut. Excellent build quality for the price. All thanks to the quality and sturdy high density medium fiber board. There are 3 drivers located in front of the speaker. One 50W 4″ full range driver and two 10W 1.25″ tweeters. Covered by fabric speaker grill as you can see.
Retro design power switch, LED light indicator and volume controls are located on the top. Yes, you can adjust the bass and treble level easily.
The rest of the stuff can be found at the back. 2 RCA inputs, S/PDIF and DC input are there. Up to 4 inputs including Bluetooth.
Lastly, 4 round anti-skid pads are located at the bottom to provide stability. Yes, they do their job well.
Performance Result
Let’s talk about Bluetooth performance first. SonicGear StudioBox 2-HD can reach up to 7m with obstacles like wall. As for response, it is excellent with virtually no lag between video and audio. Playing games and watching movie on smartphone/tablet are great for sure. For non-Bluetooth devices, AUX connections are always there for you. Sadly, no FM radio for old folks.
Yes, you get the cleanest audio quality through digital. Everything will be processed by the speaker DSP. Most of the TV, game consoles and TV box support it nowadays. So do use it. No worry if don’t have it, Bluetooth and AUX connections are always there for you.
70W pure output power (RMS) can fill up a large and quiet living room easily. You can throw a small party too if you want. For the best audio experience, try to stay as close as possible to the speaker. You can feel more bass coming out from it then.
Sound Quality
One of the best speakers that produce outstanding vocals. Yes, this is what SonicGear StudioBox 2-HD can do. The vocals for both females and males sound very well. Why? They have a little bit touched with the warmness. Natural and sweet vocals are what you get. Again, this is the best part of StudioBox 2-HD.
Of course, highs are performing well too. Personally, I bumped up all the treble volume level. And keep the bass level in the middle. You can play around the bass and treble level to get the best combo for you. You will have crisp and clear treble then. Yes, all the musical instruments like trumpet, violin, cymbals and others sound can be heard clearly.
As for bass, it is powerful for a such small profile. Well, keep in mind that you won’t get dedicated subwoofer kind of bass level. But it is more than enough to feel the bass bumping here and here when close to the speakers. Again, you can increase the bass level if you prefer.
