Kii were kind enough to take us on a product tour and do an interview about their unfeasibly expensive K3 Wireless Loudspeakers. They do sound awesome, but at $20,000 a pair I gues you would expect amazing sound.
The special part of the Kii 3 speakers is that they sound like there is no audio delay whatsoever between channels and they can be placed anywhere in a room. there is no sweet spot with these speakers as they are truly omnidirectional.

Where was the demo?

[@abboberg]

He likes the sound of his own voice over the speakers.

[@anandshah71]

Very Interesting problem that it solves
What’s the another speaker that can be placed anywhere

[@endrizo]

What bluetooth codec does it use?

[@oysteinsoreide4323]

They are not bluetooth speakers. You must have an external source if you want to use bluetooth audio with them.

[@stevenkoski228]

If I’m sitting in front of any speaker, all of it’s drivers need to be facing me, or you🫵 can keep it🔊🤬🙈.

too much money for speakers with class D amplifiers in them,and then its too bad,if one of the amps shits itself

[@editorjuno]

The Hypex NCore modules blow 99+ percent of pricey conventional so-called "high-end" and/or "audiophile" amplifiers, regardless of amplification "Class," right out of the water with regard to both measurable and audible performance. Your opinion is about as obsolete as the "transistor amps will never be good" nonsense folks used to spout at the very same time that DC-coupled output stages made the superiority of well designed solid-state amps to even the best vacuum tube equivalents unassailable. Sooner than later, Class AB output stages will become a matter of mere nostalgia for "the good old days" of massive power transformers and heat sinks, just like their tube counterparts have been for decades.
The linked review is of a power amp based on a different NCore module, but it confirms the undeniable technical excellence of the best modern Class D audio output stages. www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-hypex-nc400-diy-amp.5907/

@@editorjuno I use KRK V6 S4 powered monitors at home and their class D amplifiers (apparently) hiss louder than they should according to other users that have heard them and it's the class D amplifiers that are getting the blame for that, that being said they don't cost $20,000 for a pair they cost me $700 CDN each in 2020.

@@malibustacy3606 -- The otherwise excellent Kali IN-8 had the same issue, which was solved with the introduction of the current "2nd Wave" version. Now the entire Kali monitor line is much (12 dB!) quieter -- IOW, entirely suitable for home stereo use. The "2nd Wave" IN-8s now go for $800/pair MSRP and they are mind-blowingly good in every respect -- and the other Kali models (IN-5, LP-8, and LP-6) cost even less. The main difference is the latest generation of Class D chips from TI, which include built-in DSP functionality.
