The D200 offers a well-balanced sound signature with a slight emphasis on the midrange, making it ideal for vocal-heavy music and genres that require a clear, detailed midrange. Bass The bass performance of the D200 is very impressive, especially considering its relatively compact size. The 5.25-inch driver delivers tight very punchy bass that is both deep and well-controlled. It doesn't overpower the rest of the frequency range, which is a common issue with many bass-heavy speakers. Instead, the bass integrates smoothly with the midrange and treble, providing a cohesive listening experience. Whether you're listening to electronic music, jazz, or classical, the bass is articulate and responsive, adding depth and richness to the music without muddying the overall sound. Midrange The midrange is where the D200 truly shines. Vocals are rendered with exceptional clarity and detail, making them sound lifelike and engaging, even holographic, many instances. Instruments such as guitars, pianos, and strings also benefit from the D200's excellent midrange performance, coming across as natural and full-bodied. The slight emphasis on the midrange adds warmth to the sound, which makes the D200 particularly well-suited for genres like rock, folk, and acoustic music. Make no mistake this speaker is quite overwhelmingly dynamic, what ever music tracks you choose to play. One of the standout features of the HiVi Swans D200 is its ability to create a realistic and immersive soundstage. The speakers excel at imaging, they can accurately placeing instruments and vocals within the stereo field. When listening to well-recorded music, the D200 creates a sense of depth and space that makes it feel like you're in the room with the performers. This is particularly impressive given the speaker's size and price point. The HiVi Swans D200 are amazing sound quality and value for money, I am quite addicted to listening to them.

In February of 2024, I bought, HiVi-Swans D1100 Computer Speakers, and I was really surprised on how good they sounded. And yet, I returned them for only one reason: the blue-tooth feature was rather dicey and to bypass to aux was a pain in the a**! So, I read up on the HiVi-Swans D100 Computer Speakers and +95% of the reviews, in and outside of Amazon, were impressive. I ordered the speakers... Swan speakers are well-built and pretty shocking on how good they sound for their price point. I let them break in for about three weeks: +72 hours of listening. The sound? They sound better than their little cousin (D1100) in all phases. It takes a little bit of time to get used to the ribbon speaker as compared to the ones on the D1100. For a the D100's to produce the sound they do, especially with a 4" driver for low mid-range and bass, is a little mind boggling. The mid-range and upper mids are clean, defined, spacious and very detailed without being harsh. The lower mid-range and bass? Detailed, clean, uncolored and not boomy whatsoever. I have owned very expensive speakers; in excess of $10,000, so I know what sounds good and what doesn't. Do these speakers compete with those? Uh-no, and they aren't met too either! I am really impressed how dynamic they are, and yeah - they can get loud without distortion. The bass, to me, is deep enough. If someone wants lower, then get a subwoofer! But, for bookshelf speakers, they are just as good as ones that are in the $400 to $500 range. I primarily use them for video streaming on my Samsung tv. They are fantastic when watching a movie. I, once in awhile, will listen to music with the speakers on YouTube. Impressive as well. But, I primarily listen to music with my Kali Audio IN-5 5-inch Powered Studio Monitors. I am not, nor should anyone compare the D100 to the Kali's. Why? The Kali's are $700 a pair, are studio monitors and compete, and rather easily so, with monitor speakers in the $1,000 range. But, for their size, the D100's are almost as accurate. So, if I ever decide to pay another pair of active speakers, and I am trying to find an excuse to do so - for my teenage son, I will be buying HiVi-Swans. They are that good.

Two days into burn-in and the smile keeps getting bigger. Fantastic reproduction and balance. At this price point, I would have to say that my expectations were blown away. Even after reading the limited number of reviews out there that signaled the prowess of the engineering. Now, I can't claim to be a true audiophile. One must have F.U. money to step into that world, of which I do not. As such, I am sure that in terms of "scary money" there are better, and a 5-star rating is leaving something on the table so to speak. That said, if used for their designed purpose, one would find excellence in packaging and a simplicity devoid of fluff. Very straight forward user-unit interface in connection process with multiple options that integrate and resonate in what you need rather than what marketing can sell. These are quality units with a focus on sound quality. The bass is there and in small to midsize theaters of operation, very satisfying. To that end the balance of tonal presentation leaves the listener enjoying rather than adjusting. The key being the application and expectation intersection. If you have ever flown into Kona Hawaii and expected to see the jungles Hilo, you might be let down. If there was one detractor that took a star off the board, it was the length of provided interconnect cable. One speaker contains the amp and the other is fed through a connecting cable. Even in a small room configuration, the desktop application is all this cable can support. The fact that the control unit has a switch that changes presentation between desktop and speaker stand placement, it authenticates speaker stand application by design with a more than subtle increase in soundstage when configured that way. Unfortunately, an extension cable is needed to really accomplish this without the potential for someone or something ruining your day by tripping on the connection cable sending your new pride and joy crashing to the ground. As one will notice, I haven't gotten into the specifics of the sound in detail. One reason is the fact that I don't play audiophile on tv and the other is that it is too soon to do so. At two days into the burn-in period, the sound is wonderful and surprisingly full bodied. Almost jaw-dropping for the size. But in all fairness, the detail should only get better as burn-in maturity is gained. Hating to offer up an expectation, even if it didn't, I would remain convinced that one would be hard pressed to find better at this price-point. Worthy of benchmark status-

These speakers sound amazing for the price. Every bit as good as speakers priced 2x or more. They sounded very good right out of the box but after the 100 hour break-in (as specified in the manual) - WOW! Now on to HiVi Swan's customer service - another WOW! The cable that connects the speakers was too short for me. I have them on stands and spread a little over 6 feet apart on each side of my entertainment cabinet. But the cable was not long enough to stretch across on the floor behind the cabinet and clamp up the back of the speaker stands (to hide the cable). So I contacted Swan Speaker's Customer Service right away to ask if they had an extension cable and got a next day response. The answer was "no" but they asked how long I needed it. I told them 4.5 meters and they sent me a 5 meter. They only charged $8.00 for the cable + $32.00 shipping via DHL from China, which was more than fair. Excellent quality cable too! Has gold plated aircraft type (screw on) connectors. DHL delivered it to my door 3 days later. So I couldn't be happier. I listen to all kinds of music with much of my all time favorites being the more complex progressive rock and jazz of the 60's and 70's and I'm hearing things in these old recordings that I have never heard before. Great for classical music too. The clarity and detail are excellent. Good flat response across the full range with the high's out of the tweeters clean and bright but not irritatingly sharp (as so many other speakers can be). The over-all value for the dollar here is unheard of! If you are looking for a new set of powered bookshelf type speakers then give Swan's a try. If you don't like them you can always return them to Amazon but I'm pretty sure.......YOU WILL NOT DO THAT!

Great speakers very clear, these are brand name, speakers or many other speakers for sale are not. Lots of BASS lots of power. Highly recommended!

Update: Gave these to a friend to tinker with. The unit failed due to blown/swollen caps. There was a ridiculous amount of glue holding the circuit board and power switch to the back mounting plate and required breaking the switch to remove. Once the switch and caps were replaced the unit fired back up and are living on with a new owner. Update: Support took a very long time but did get back to me. They couldn't fix the problem but did offer a nice discount on another product. Not a perfect solution but it does help lessen the pain. I used the discount to try the OS-10 desk speakers. They have had no issues with an external smart power switch like the d300s had. Maybe it was a model specific issue or just my pair. Previous review (+ indicates an update): Pros: Great cost to performance ratio Good looking speakers (imo) Very loud in your face sound. Good for 2 or 2.1 theater Sounds really good with amazing bass extension for its size. Much more sound than my old Linn system. Left the sub off most the time. +Now that I have new speakers, I realize just how well these speakers filled my oddly shaped room with sound and were not particular about placement. I think my new speakers sound better (at double the price), but boy are they picky about placement. Something that I took for granted with the swans Cons: Feels a little cheap Connection cord between speakers too short to hide. New speakers have option for longer cord now No sub out. I had to run a sub from my tv with separate volume control to get around this Volume increments a little too big. Goes from quiet to loud very quickly Quality issues Support was very slow to respond Cannot handle cutting the power from an external source (smart switches, power strips, power outages) Speakers failed immediate upon arrival and wouldn't power on after turning the unit off with a smart switch. Unit wouldn't power up for about 24 hours but then somehow came back to life. Since then, I've had this plugged into the wall and powered on 24/7. Tried to contact support multiple times via phone and emails. No response. Recently, power went out. Swans again will not turn back on. No power light, no response. There is no method of resetting this unit. There is no fuse to replace that I could find. This time it's been dead for quite some time, and I don't think it's coming back to life this time. Contacted every email and phone I could find on Swans and Hivis websites. Again, no response. ** Swans support reached out about 2 weeks after my request. They could not provide repair or replacement but offered a discount on future orders. I got the speakers for around $500 which seemed like a good deal at the time. At current prices (399) I think it's still a decent deal for performance. But hard to recommend due to reliability. I'm avoiding active speakers for my main system in the future. I'd rather invest in a great set of speakers and buy the components separately. If there's a failure in the future, it's much cheaper to replace the individual component that failed then having to replace the entire active speaker.

These speakers are the best I have ever heard--especially compared to speakers similar in appearance. I've used them as bookshelf, studio monitors, and now I've pulled out my $2500 Bo$e 900--pounds of worthless--surround sound--s as two dimensional with no soundstage at all--and replaced it with the D300 as the front, and D200 as the surround rear. No additional bass or subwoofer needed, the soundstage is as expansive as the engineers recorded and designed the audio to be, the bass is rich, I do not need to EQ--that must be what the DSP is doing because they fit perfectly in every room and setup I have used without the need to make any adjustments other than speaker placement. Just straight up get them, you'll love them. Get two if they're on sale.
