I've had a T3 for about five years now. I use as a portable and as a PC speaker and it sounds great for both. Highly recommended.
bonjour pas de decalage voix sur pc?
i tell you what... these speaker series opened my eyes in the hifi world... the audio pro t10 gen2 was my first audio pro product... before that i had the marshall kilburn :o i thought it sound good until i got the audio pro... the kilburn sounded almost like a toy in comparison... (well not really, but it was not half as good)...
then i bought the audio pro t8l and the t14... bought them booth used and i got to say this is a steal, 170 euros for t8l and 250 euros for t14.. for propper hifi that puts most consumer products to shame...i can really recommend buying used (if you know what you want)... this is very important because you really need to hear stuff by urself to know if you like it...
what i especially like about the audio pro: they sound fun and detailed... and they showed me that i dont like flat response... they give fun, excitement, full bodied sound, airy (the music is in the room NOT coming from the speakers, its just there... with good recordings you will be completely blown away how airy it sounds)... they are not critical where they stand
for me good audio equipment is something that touches your soul, first time hearing the audio pro t10 gen2 i wanted to cry...
i swear to god i will never buy any consumer grade audio gear... its all trash
audio pro is hugely underrated
Would love to see a comparison between the C10MK2 and the Sonos 5
I second that. Also a comparison between the C5MkII (which released this year) and both the Sonos Move and the Five. I really want a system focused on music, so the sound quality on the audio pros are making me veer towards them
i had the t10 gen 2 (the one with the handle) and i got to say that it puts nearly all consumer grade stuff into shame... sonos could be an exception tho
Great review, many thanks.
I have the drumfire in grey. I love it.
Hey,vielen Dank,ein sehr gutes Video.
Ich habe mich für meinen kleinen Garten für den C3 entschieden.
Really nice Video. Thanks!
Very well thought review. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I have my second C10 (my first was confiscated by my daugther when she moved out :) and I can confirm the sound still suprises me many times, you don't expect this good sound in this small form factor. I'm not (only) talking about bass, as I think it is often a cheap way to make a speaker more favourable to many ears, but about detail, attack and decay, mids and trebles too. I got to this website as I am intending to buy a second Audion Pro, probably a C3/C5 to make it a multiroom system, and although the C5 sounds noticably better we have a few use cases where the built in battery makes the C3 the preferred option.
Love to see a review of the Audio Pro C20 compared to the C10
Great informative video. Seems like great mid $$-$$$ system for the money IMO. Like the design and control features. Would be concerned about the app you mentioned. Could you update and give some info about their online/user support?
i still use audio pro image 50´s my father had them... but still great sound.
Thanks for video.
Addition to comment (at 12:37): you can connect C3 to sub via wifi using the app
I have 2 x C3 and sub and they do connect via the app
do they pair in stereo?
@CatGPT_
Hello,
Yes, they do. This is controlled in the app.
The app allows you to choose which speaker can be left, right, or mixed. Volume for each speaker can also be adjusted independently.
I hope you found this helpful.
Thanks for a great video!
Glad you liked it!
They are actually great and can integrate with Vifa speakers too...
Which one do you think is better T3+ or C3 ? Also, I am choosing between those 2 and Helsinki, Newport 2 and B&O A1 gen1, which looks like sounds better then gen2. Which one is the best of them in your opinion for indoor use?
@@igorz.3972 Helsinki... Nothing else can even compete in any way, its so small yet more power than the Audio Pros when you need it to be and with boosted tuning has probably the most refined sound in a history of bluetooth speakers.
Are the battery speakers always on so they can be woken up remotely... I.e. can you get that multiroom experience without having to physically push the power button on the battery powered devices?
When plugged in, yes, but on battery they'll be dead after ~15 hours.
What is the difference between the c5a and c5mkii? Worth the upgrade? Massive difference in price at the moment.
I thought that also
Great speaker but the app is terrible. Can't control bluetooth volume when you switch over. Also conning to Spotify doesn't work.
bonjour c3 et c5 fonctionne ensemble multiroom,?
The Ethernet port being removed from the C10 is a mind blowing decision.
why do you need ethernet when WiFI speed goes through the roof nowadays?
@@pennesalmone6350 reliability. Especially for streaming audio, consistency is more important than speed.
If you’re using wifi, you will have drops. Not if, when. It will happen.
For a product at this price offering to be a “premium” solution, not including that is a really dumb decision
Tbh, the sound test bit is pretty much meaningless. They all sound terrible, which I'm sure they don't in reality! But a really useful guide - I didn't know there were so many.
Bluetooth 4.2 in 2022? It is a joke?
Long term the system is terribly unstable. The app regularly is unable to find all speakers resulting in having to set it all up again. The reset procedure for each speaker is also very buggy. The audio setting per speaker is not exact enough making it impossible to find the perfect balance. Furthermore the Audio Pro Link has a will of it's own. Even when wired to LAN it more often than not fails to connect or stutters. I bought two C10s, two C5s and the Link. I wish I hadn't. They sound great but are utterly unreliable. Steer clear from this product.
Well, I only have one (the second one as the first was confiscated by my daughterh when she moved out) but that for 6 years now so I don't know anything about how multiroom works but as a single device it is clearly the best compared to anything I've heard, a league on it's own. Sound quality still suprises me when I compate it to my high end set up. So allow me to disagree...
Dude copying and pasting this on multiple videos. What a goon
I see that you make this comment consistently on these comparison videos. AI bot? If not - try the firmware upgrade. App is the least of your worries. If you can feel emotions...
@@KitWhite-fy3kd haha I can actually breathe and feel. Willing to check one of those Captcha tickboxes to prove my humanity. But after all those months I stick to the point. I've done all updates. But unfortunately the whole is just not as stable one might expect. The Audio-link and most speakers are hooked to the LAN and still they often (let's say once every 20 sessions) cut off/get interfered randomly. At this pricepoint it's something I can't overlook and if I'd known I'd never invested into the system. Since mostly audiophiles find their way to this system I'd love to prevent them from this disappointment.
