I have no interest in this, except as an audiophile - but if you want pure desktop sound, the Arche FR2 speakers are excellent. You will need a sub, but even a low-price Fostex Submini2 does fine. The speakers are "bright", cutting off at 100 hz, but this also means that sub integration is quite easy. And the brightness, which also sounded hard / harsh at first, is clearly reduced with the sub, plus more break-in time, maybe 60 hours now. A zero cost solution is a piece of cloth, or paper, in front of the drivers, to curb their over-eager treble. Maybe, with more break-in, not needed. The FR2 have amazing top end content, somewhat reduced by my temporary damping.
With these speakers, you can really tune in your listening - move them a little, and the soundscape changes. You can get the mono image in stereo recordings precisely tuned. OK, they are a little bit like over-bright LED lights, at least at first - compared to the speakers in my main system. But they do a good job, for the price, and offers a different "take" on the music.
Very much recommended - if you are willing to experiment and tweak a little. I get the best sound with the speakers on 18 cm stands on my desktop, with 10 cm or more to the wall. They need room to breathe. The pc screen in between is probably not a sonic bonus, but I can’t hear any clear detrimental effect.
I am now into experiments, small position changes. Only possible, with these "sharp" speakers. You know rightaway if their toe-in or distance from your ears is wrong. This is interesting not just at my desktop, but also, for my thinking regarding development of my main music system.
As you would imagine, with this "sharp" system, good recordings sound especially good. I am enjoying Prefab Sprout, from Qobuz. I have not heard it so good before - although I still prefer the vinyl records, in my main system.
Check out Swans, on Andromeda heights - crystal pure, on these speakers. Top sound for a penny.
