Trends Audio SA-10/R Speaker Preview

[admin]

Depending on the price, the Trends Audio SA-10 may be a very interesting speaker. Trends is obviously a small company trying to break into audio world and their speaker aesthetics and website design display how bootstrapped they are. But that doesn't mean their speaker won't sound good. We are definitely intrigued by the apparent technology they claim to use in their speaker though we are guessing it will be best utilized in a near-field application like an office. Paired with one of their inexpensive hybrid tube amps, however, you might be looking at an affordable step into high end audio.

I would say mildly interesting - and 15-70 watts power handling - I guess
it may be for nearfield. And, if a speaker is really designed well - then why
should there be a need, for two tweeter placement options. Also, I hope
it is $265 each - that tweeter does not look like one, that I would want to
see on a speaker, costing over $500 a pair.

I'd love to read a full review of these but I'll admit a bit of skepticism because of the lack of quantification (+-) of the frequency response spec. But there are enough people interested in near fiend monitors for desktop use that a review is warranted.

My bad - I meant to say, I hope it is $265 a pair.
