About this item

  • ANDREW JONES. From speaker designer Andrew Jones comes a collection of speakers that bring professional-quality sound to your living room. These highly-acclaimed bookshelf loudspeakers deliver on sound, creating an immersive listening experience.
  • HOME LISTENING. Whether you use them as stereo speakers or part of a multi-channel home theater system, these speakers can handle 80 watts to deliver wide frequency response and sophisticated sound quality, regardless of the source.
  • CURVED DESIGN. These speakers utilize a true curved cabinet design. Not only aesthetically pleasing, this stiffer design reduces standing sound waves inside the cabinet, resulting in high-performance and exceptional sound quality.
  • FEEL THE BASS. A structured surface over the 4-inch woofer with oversized magnets improves rigidity and bass accuracy. A vented pole piece also improves bass response from the same size woofers in previous models.
  • TWEETER. To widen the sweet spot of the 1-inch High Efficiency Soft Dome tweeter, we’ve engineered a custom wave guide. Increasing tweeter efficiency, together a 6-Element Complex Crossover, allows the SP-BS22-LR’s play louder using less power.

Crossover

The job of the cross over in a speaker is to break the audio signal into low, high and sometimes mid-range frequencies. It’s an important job, and it uses circuitry like inductors and capacitors to accomplish it. Much of the competition uses an extremely simple, low-cost cross over made up of a single capacitor and inductor. The Pioneer SP-BS22-LR utilizes a sophisticated 6 component high quality cross over. The reasoning is simple: we do it because it’s one more way of insuring high quality sound that makes its presence known.

Woofer

There are many challenges designing and manufacturing a woofer capable of delivering true bass performance. In the SP-BS22-LR, we’ve added a structured surface to the 4-inch woofer. By doing so, not only is rigidity improved, so is bass accuracy. Engineers have also vented the pole piece, again improving bass response from the same size woofers in previous models.

Tweeter

To widen the sweet spot of the 1-inch High Efficiency Soft Dome tweeter, we’ve engineered a custom wave guide. Increasing tweeter efficiency, together with newly designed crossovers, allows the SP-BS22-LR’s play louder using less power.

Whatever your system, the SP-BS22-LR Compact Speakers are ready to step it up with authentic audio reproduction to bring your listening experience to the next level.

    Customers like the sound quality of the speakers. They say they are very good-sounding, with a far more impressive bass response. They fill the sound stage very nicely, and give voice to great music. The speakers play loud and handle all the tasks of a rear speaker very well. They are slightly warm sounding, clear, and pleasant. The mids are indeed very good, and the imaging is surprisingly precise for inexpensive speakers. Overall, customers are happy with the sound and recommend them to others.

    Customers like the size of the speakers. They say that they are small in pictures, but are overwhelmed by the actual size. They also say that the speakers have an uncanny spaciousness, great sound stage, and good performance. They are great for smaller rooms and are worth the shelf space. Customers also mention that the sound is very full and rich, and fits well with just about any decor.

    "...This is a great sub for the price. Very tight and musical. (It's not bloated or flabby like a lot of -- actually, nearly all -- budget subs.)..." Read more

    "...but cranking the volume up revealed a sweeter midrange and wonderful sense of space over and over again...." Read more

    "...The B&W have a bigger driver and fuller sound, and are slightly warmer. The AJs are a little harsh after a time, slightly more brash and sharp...." Read more

    75 customers mention69 positive6 negative

    Customers are impressed with the clarity and transparency of the speakers. They say the midrange is incredibly clear, and the clarity when listening to music is not even comparable to the old Onkyo. Customers also say the highs are clear without being forward. They set up and spaced correctly, the speakers can create a transparency and sound field that they'll never experience. They can clearly hear details in recordings that were muddy or missing in other speakers. The dialogue is clear and crisp, and every instrument is crisp and clean. The presentation is articulate.

    Sound great, easy for cabinet project

    Sound great, easy for cabinet project
    Had a much more expensive pair of Andrew Jones speakers -- the (as of March 2019) fairly new Elac Debut 2.0 6.5" mids speakers which usually run $250-300 outside of sales. Researching one of these pairs often leads to the other and you wonder whether the price difference is worthwhile. I sold the Elacs and got these instead... Why?The Elacs sounded good in the sense of being extremely clear, with tiny details audible and a sense that you weren't missing a single thing except subwoofer-level bass. However, the Elacs were, to my ears, "neutral" to a fault. They didn't engage or excite me... regardless of volume or material, the hairs on my arms didn't stand up like when I listen to my big standing speakers (I have the 8" RP-280F Klipsch Reference Premier towers on a nice amp in another room). Though impressed in my head with the Elac's sound, after testing a variety of music I didn't find myself eager to keep playing more. I also tried some music and games and, once again, they were detailed, complete, and competent. A little bass, blended in almost so you had to think to notice it. Especially on sale, they'd probably be good hobby-level studio monitors... "Clinical" might be the right word, not meant in a negative way. Just not what my ears were seeking.The Pioneers, in contrast, were surprisingly warm and engaging. Not trying to exaggerate -- to be clear they were far short of, say, my big towers (or my tower's bookshelf-sized brothers which are also at a much higher price than the Pioneers). But this is one of the most reasonably priced speaker sets to ever give me goosebumps. They made my wife and I turn and smile at each other and we had to turn up the volume and try more songs. I also found the Pioneers to be more flexible. For my application, the speakers would be only a few feet from my ears at moderate volume and I found these to sound much more "natural" (not like an artificial speaker), and with a wider sweet spot, than the bulkier Elacs. Always found myself angling and moving my head level to get center-stage on the Elacs.My real hangup with the Elacs was something most of you won't care about, but led me to something you might care about in the Pioneer. Packaging. The drivers in the Elacs have a MUCH nicer and more complicated mounting system and in general a much more premium fit/finish/look than the Pioneers -- on cabinet alone, the Elacs make the Pioneers look like garage sale home-mades. The Elac's drivers are not perfect circles but are custom-fitted shapes with finished trim and premium small hex head screws, and fancy hard metal mesh over the tweeters. I wanted to port the drivers, bass ports, and internal crossovers/fill to a home-made enclosure and the Elacs would have required woodworking beyond my skill. So I saw the Pioneers with their basic circular mounts and easy, exposed screws and made the switch. My Elacs were a $150 sale buy and the Pioneers were $95.Luckily for me, not only were the Pioneers perfect for my custom project with their more old-fashioned cabinet design, I was pleased and surprised how much better they suited my taste. No knock on the Elacs which no doubt many people might prefer or have better ears to appreciate subtle qualities, but if words like "warm", "energetic," and "engaging" describe what you enjoy in a speaker, I would recommend trying a pair of these before you invest in the more expensive Elacs which are closer to $300 outside a sale... or before you try just about anything over $100!------CONTEXT since sound is so subjective:- Elacs and Pioneers tested with same music, powered by same amp (Audio Engine N22, class AB amp) with same fat-gauge cables- Both tested at desktop listening range and across the room (Pioneers also later tested once drivers/crossover circuits ported into a home-made enclosure above a bed, in which they still sound awesome playing ocean noise at night and music as a morning alarm!)- Both tested with CD-quality lossless audio and a few 96/24 lossless tracks, plus random Blurays and PC games. PC >> USB 96/24 DAC set to full quality with no software enhancements >> 3.5mm cable >> N22 amp >> 12ga home-made wiring >> speakers- My favorite home speakers are Klipsch Reference Premier, I've had a variety of cheaper theater and car audio from brands like Harmon Kardon, AudioEngine, Sennheiser, etc. On most systems, I find myself leaving crossovers and bass adjustments at neutral (or bumped just enough to hear the sub kick in) and treble neutral or just a notch above neutral. I have a variety but my favorite test tracks are mostly classic rock.- Tested both speakers with and without various subs I have around the house- Included a photo of my custom overhead enclosure in case you were curious but my observations were made with the original cabinets.------SUMMARY:- Elacs: much nicer looking/built, heavy and serious looking, crystal clear, neutral and 100% competent. Don't notice highs or lows, subtle and blended. No fatigue except sometimes forget they're playing. Very oddly-shaped (though nicely-made) driver enclosures if you are the .00001% of people wanting to steal hardware for a home design.- Pioneers: warmer, hairs on arms stood up, wanted to listen to more! Bass has a little more "presence," more noticeable than Elacs, still well blended/balanced. No fatigue from tweeters. Acceptable looking, curve case is eye-catching, but definitely lower-tier fit and finish and not space efficient though smaller/lighter than Elacs. Vinyl wrap about on par with way more expensive Klipsch Reference Premiers, both are subpar vs. Elac's tight finish. Easy to steal Pioneer's guts for another cabinet.-----END. WHAT I SOLD / KEPT:I wouldn't have complained owning the Elacs at $150 sale/pair but got lucky to get the $95 Pioneers... To my surprise, the Pioneers are my kind of speaker! Even vs. my steal on the Elacs, these are STILL a steal.
