Review of Soundfreaq Sound Stack SFQ-03

Soundfreaq Sound Stack SFQ-03


There are 7 billion people in the world, and probably plenty of docks for every person to choose two.

While sea of ​​audio accessories have been deep enough for the shelves at Best Buy like Bangladesh lowlands are, it is remarkable that remains a challenge for a speaker dock that delivers great sound at a good price and not gunk your home.

That's why we like Soundfreaq. The company makes docks that looks fantastic, great sound, and while on the expensive side, do not push the boundaries when it will cost.

Soundfreaq latest release, The Sound Stack, the company is the third most important product, and at $ 400, the most expensive. It is also the most versatile and most successful Freaq yet.

The design is a sober black brick - much more than Mies Gehry. Capacitive control walking along a narrow lip that protrudes from the bottom, with a iOS dock connector in the middle. The connector can load an Apple phone, including iPads. On the back is a USB port for charging non-Apple devices, a mini-jack for connecting your Sports Discman. There is also an optical-in jack - a necessity given the diversity of spending $ 400 on a speaker dock put ourselves in such things.

Like all Soundfreaq docks, it has Bluetooth - a wise choice, since the ubiquitous Bluetooth and the still-not-quite-there experience AirPlay Apple.

Behind the layers of the stoic black speaker cloth, two 3-inch Kevlar drivers and two 3-inch subwoofers. A bass speaker refers to his back, and a point on the front, and they operate in a push-pull configuration.

The sound is just amazing. The results are clear and well defined with very few colors. The highs are very clear. The mids are crisp and pretty forward, but not overbearing - you do not get that nasal, honking tone found in the mid-range speakers that pump. The very dynamics are used on vocals, guitar, horns, pianos, and all sounds that live in the middle frequencies.

The Sound Stack makes little depth on the low side, especially compared with more powerful and more expensive systems like the B & W Zeppelin Air, which Dole out bass waves like a bazooka. But what it loses in the swagger, it makes the brightness. I heard punchiness and definition of Paul Jackson's finger-style electric bass with Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man", a nuance that was lost in the bottomless low end of the Zeppelin. And while Chris Wood bass solo in Medeski, Martin and Wood's "Latin Shuffle" is not the massive, skull-rattling weight it does on Zeppelin I've heard the attack of each note plucked more clearly on the Sound Stack.

In addition to the $ 600 Zeppelin, I compared $ 200 Altec Lansing inMotion Air 725 and the new $ 300 Sony RDP X500iP. As far as sound quality goes, the Sound Stack slots at its place among the devices exactly where you would expect, since the $ 400 price tag.
