First up it’s the very popular Boston Acoustics Soundware XS speakers. We have seen the 5.1 system on the website and have added the satellite speakers, either to give you discreet Hi Fi speakers or to add another pair to your surround sound system to give you 7.1. These are only available in Black or White but you will no doubt be able to find somewhere to fit these into your setups. Click on the picture and see if you can find anything you can use them for.

The next group of products are again from Boston Acoustics. They are a selection of CD/Radios, iPod docks/Alarm Clocks, so you can wake up to the summer sounds to set you off into the day in a good mood. The systems we have added produce a big sound, which you could mistake for a dedicated Hi Fi System. Desktop Audio products have become ever popular over recent times so I’m sure these products will fit into many homes very nicely.

Home Automation is so appealing but is out of reach in terms of cost for many people, but now, you don’t even have to think about it taking a huge chunk from your budget to get the automated home you desire.

Soundware XS 5.1

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

Good-quality home cinema electronics are now more affordable than ever, meaning that alongside a set of speakers such as these you can have a home cinema system for relative peanuts.

So, to this Boston Acoustics SoundWare XS 5.1 package. The price box is ticked and in terms of practicality these speakers are a definite score, too.

Not only are they tiny units that, despite their multi-sided design, sit happily on stands, they also come complete with articulating brackets for simple wall-mounting. 

Looks smart, solidly constructed
Available in white or black along with a bog-standard subwoofer they certainly look pretty smart and feel fairly solidly constructed. The speakers use smaller spring-clip terminals, which work well and grip the cable solidly – which is handy if you’re planning on sticking them halfway up the wall.

Listening to the soundtrack on the excellent Blu-ray transfer of The Lord Of The Rings we’re first taken by the cohesive, enveloping quality of the package.

For such miniature speakers they do a staggering job of filling a good-sized room as sound swings fluidly around the satellites.

Highs and lows to raise a smile
Diminutive in stature but not sound, the satellites deliver big but balanced audio, with a treble that’s assured, clear and never bright.

The subwoofer beds in well, too, delivering the necessary bottom-end power and weight without sticking its head too far above the parapet.

There’s subtlety, too, with the tense atmospherics of Moon conveyed confidently alongside decent dynamics when required.

It’s been a long time coming but finally we have a new budget style system worth shouting about. It may be XS in size but it’s an XL for performance.
