Budget, small/medium sized speakers (and some misc. questions)
Go to solution
Solved by Stagea,
Is there any serious benefit to having a separated driver for mid range sound, or is that something to worry about only in higher-end speakers?
It has advantages and disadvantages. At this price point, I'd rather put what I'm spending on higher quality drivers and a proper crossover for a good 2-way system than to spread it too thin on too many components (given that they didn't skimp on the enclosure or the amplifier).
Do speakers have any equivelant of "Beats" for headphones that I should avoid?
Bose is generally regarded as the "Beats" of speaker systems. It is a very popular brand but their domestic products generally deliver poor price:performance ratio. This is also quite true for Bang & Olufsen, Nakamichi, and other "lifestyle" brands.
edit-If the AMP/DAC is pointless for lower-priced speakers I can move my budget closer to $200
This might be worth a look too, as it comes with its own USB interface DAC/ADC (in case you plan on connecting instruments or a good microphone later on):
