► LII SONG S10 SPEAKER REVIEW
While some brands offer speakers that go beyond the black box, designer speakers for living room are still not the standard in home audio. If you are searching for speakers that look good, you should definitely check out Lii Audio speakers. The Lii Song S10 is among the best full range single driver speakers I've heard to date.

these cost $3900 USD, based on the look alone, I thought they would go for $10k+. They look great.
I own a pair of these and run with an 8 watt valve amp - I love them - they are in a smaller room and have managed to get them setup nicely. Thanks for the affirmation of my thoughts on these speakers !
great to see a proper review in your gorgeous new space!
love the slat wall and your previous video showing all that went into it...I took notes ;
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved this review. Glad you are able to resume your regular reviews.
😍
Bravo! It's great to see a reviewer dive into more esoteric stuff and bring knowledgeable comparisons with more standard gear that we know. And both of you give technical comments that are very useful. These speakers are real beauties! I usually listen to reviews in the background but this time I seated and watched two times.
Much appreciated!
I love the references to specific recordings, helps us understand and contextualize well what you mean
Agreed- thank you for doing this!
A Damascus Balisong...nice. I wouldn't expect anything less. Great review. Glad you are back. The room looks fabulous.
Not in the market for new speakers, but your channel is so informative and entertaining, I love to listen to it (audio only) while rocking my kiddo to sleep. Thanks Andrew and Kristi!
Speakers look great in your new room Andrew and Kristie - congrats! Always look forward to watching you both on Sunday. Happy Easter to you both!!!!
Thank you! You too!
Great review with solid comparison notes! Also great to see a mainstream reviewer look at non mainstream brands such as Lii.
Thx Andrew, great review. Had never seen these before. Totally agree about the shiny vs mat finish. For some reason these have an art deco vibe to their shape to me.
I see that. Well said
The new room looks awesome and the speakers are very tempting! Long life to your channel!
Thanks so much!
Love the new room and man did these speakers go well in it! Great episode
Excellent review! Congratulations on your stunning listening room. I’m very curious to hear some single driver, high efficiency speakers. I may have to give these a shot!
Thanks so much for reviewing these. Its hard to get reviews of the sort of kit I generally prefer from mainline reviewers who would have the ability to make comparisons with gear from larger name makers. I tend to gravitate toward full range driver designs, so I would be interested in seeing reviews from you guys for things like the Pearl Audio Sibelius or even other Lii Audio units, like the S-10 Glories or the little F6 Emmos or the little teardrop shaped spiral cabinets they make. I'm also an open baffle enthusiast, so your previous review for the Decware Zen Master speakers using the Lii F15 drivers was fantastic, so I would be interested in hearing reviews other open baffle designs, such as the Lii Audio Liionaidas (or whatever they're calling them now; they have a basic and a heavy duty one that are the same thing and you get to choose your full range driver to couple with a W15 woofer on the bottom), or things from places like Pure Audio Project, Spatial, or where ever else you can find something that interests you enough to want to do a review for.
Just my 2 cents worth for the future, but generally speaking, you want to review it, I want to see the review. Keep up the good work.
Great taste in the decor and wonderful presentation. You guys put so much work into your channel and it really shows.
I was thrown by the close up and the edges, however. The whole video was about how great the speaker was and yet a simple view showed a manufacturing problem that anyone who owns a lot of speakers does not want to see on their 4k investment
It's the trade off for affordable Chinese made materials...We all know this. I don't normally even bother to comment on videos but this one was so well done and so such excellent thought and detail went into the presentation that I thought it deserved an honest response . Great review.
Great review! I was pleasantly surprised to see these speakers.
I have the Decware UFO too, and use a 8" wideband crossover-less speaker. It also does the whole "on-off" switch when it comes to getting it right. Very VERY small differences in position make all the difference.
thanks for this great review. I look forward to you reviews of omega and/ or devore for comparisons.
Oh man, I would love to review Devore. That was my first goosebump experience!
whoa ! beautiful speakers and they go perfect with the decoration of the room. I agree with Kristi I like the glossy finish.
Simply Gorgeous! I also think the cabinets are just exactly what I would want. The Glossy Wood is very Art Deco in this shade of finish. I would buy them just as you have them here.
The listening area looks awesome! Congrats on your new home!
Another wonderful video. Thank you!
Great review once again! I've been waiting for this one since I saw them in your ig photos lol
Hope it was worth the wait. It was hard to keep my mouth shut while constantly teasing them in the background. Now, this next speaker we've got coming up, we've never teased once ;).
@@andrewrobinsonreviews It was! I thoroughly enjoy your videos and your approach to audio
As usual a wonderful produced review of you guys! Thank you for for looking into Lii Audio and giving information about them. Besides Pearl Acoustics with their Sibelius Speakers, Lii is one of the most interesting companies for me at the moment.
Our pleasure!
Welcome back. I missed both of you.
Welcome back Andrew and Kristi!
The new pad looks amazing (room/house tour please) and I definitely agree with Kristi that you were “feeling yourself” with this review 🤪😘
:)
Yes 🙌🏼 Good to see you.
Thanks! We're glad to be back.
Hi!
as a relatively new listener, y’all have become a fav .. from the richness of Andrew’s voice to the warmth of y’all’s rapport (even in disagreement!), i love the reviews! .. Happy Easter to you both! .. #hiKristi
We really appreciate that, Nelson. Thank you so much for joining us today.
Glad to see you still have the Decware. It looks good in the new place.
Would not dream of getting rid of it!
Great review of what looks to be a stunning speaker. The cabinetry reminds me of classic old school designs - almost Art Deco in a sense. There is something appealing to single driver speakers that I find quite attractive for listening to music. Like another layer of fog has been removed, revealing the music in all its glory.
Andrew: great review. Glad to see you back in the saddle again. Loved the room drama re do but I know that was part of the journey of moving. Do you plan on reviewing the Paradigm Persona line?
I had a pair of Lii Audio Crystal 10 drivers ( earlier model with a Trumpet logo stamp on the cone and tapered plastic plug, bought in early 2020) Have tried it in many ways, OBs and cabinets but it sound the best in the cabinet design by Ole Lii, the oblong shape tower speaker box that you have in your video. Never know it had such an extended low bass frequency until you have it on the oblong cabinets. (Built my oblong tower speaker base on Lii Audio's speaker drawing) Later found out that Ole Lii designed this oblong tower cabinet specifically for the Crystal 10 back then to remove any standing wave inside the cabinet. What a great speaker with the right cabinets. It takes a long time to break in......gets better by the days.......search for a good pair of speaker to match my merely 2 W tube amp is over. Oh by the way the Crystal 10 was the FlagShip back then as I was told and all the later design were base on it. Also found out that Crystal 10 was not designed to be used with OB.
Wow. The few times i watched your videos of a speaker I’ve never heard of. SO COOL! “Style-lo Milo, This speaker is” 😄
Btw, would love to see a home tour. I’m in love with your design style of the room! Can’t imagine what you guys have done to the rest of the house 😱😱
I ADORE the look of those s-10’s. And your description of their sound is very similar to what I hear with my own highly sensitive 10 inch full range driver: the Zu Dirty Weekend. Unfortunately I simply don’t have the space for those massive s10’s. Also, I found that while I technically could force bass out of them with tone controls, the cabinets rattled. Adding a stereo pair of subs absolutely revolutionized my enjoyment of my system
Reviews again! Have you ever had a chance to hear the Brooklyn made Ohm-Walsh speakers? Might something right up your alley.
As always a very good review! Did you guys do something different with the autocue? Normally i’m not noticing the reading but now it’s more obvious than before in my opinion. Maybe it’s just me! Keep up the good work!
Love the review- thank you for continuing to test outside the "mainstream" speakers for those of us looking for something a little different. As an OTL amp owner, most mainstream speaker manufacturers are producing extremely difficult to drive loudspeaker (
First time I have watched and been totally sold on buying the review item. Thanks heaps team.
Great video, the new place looks awesome, see you in the next one.
Thank you Ken!
Thank you for comparing the Zen Master open baffle speakers to these! My preference is for the characteristics you stated for the open baffle speakers. Congrats on the new house!
Glad you found that comparison helpful! Thanks for tuning in!
great too see you guys happy Easter...
Right back atcha!
Thanks so much! Hope you're having a great day!
Great review -- very thorough and well spoken, ripe with critical comparisons. That giant flatscreen between your speakers is a killer though -- it's likely causing reflection issues and slurring your image a bit... This is where a big diffusion panel should go! Otherwise, your listening room is gorgeous. Cheers, and thanks!
Hey, i noticed these on the Decware site a long time ago but, aside from Steve D. raving about them, i could actually find no one who had reviewed them. Well done Andrew and Christy!
Fantastic review Andrew. I'm onto my third Lii driver now with the purchase of Lii Song Platinum-10 drivers..... Just waiting on their cabinet designed especially for the PT-10's. I believe full floor standing speakers inspired by their Glory cabinets will be in order ;)
I have really missed your reviews, and when Kristi posed the question…how does it feel to review again, I kind of shared your moment of satisfaction…great work both of you…thanks from across the pond.
No question of the day? Anyway, thanks for the review! By the way the wood slat sections of the walls in your room turned out awesome! I'm super jealous.
Thank you!
I like how the new room turned out and I am with Kristi those speakers look really nice in that room. Am not a fun of gloosy finish but is like the s10 in the glossy finish was made for that room.
Thanks Andrew and Kristi! Glad you are happy as that is the good place. They are beautiful speakers but a tad large for my space and I doubt they would match my 8 Klipsch siblings so I will stick to that for now. One of my subs konked out so I now have a pair Rel HT-1508's.
They are large and in charge for sure, but they can sound positively delicate too! Thanks for tuning in, it's always nice to hear from you Lonnie!
Top notch review ! Thanks. Excellent !!
Much appreciated!
Thanks for the review. would love more reviews of Lii Song speakers (Emmo F6) and Chi-Fi
I built a pair of Zen15M and augmented them with a pair of REL subs (but waiting for my Decware amp, haha) and couldn't be happier. Thanks for the comparison.
What I respect most about Andrew’s reviews is that he provides a better/worse comparison of different speakers and different brands in the video and also in response to comments. The same can’t be said of some other prominent experts.
Thank you so much!
I’ve been following you for a while(few years) and you are the only hifi reviewer my wife enjoys watching with me. Specifically your better part part in the review.
The new room looks amazing! We are moving to our dream apartment soon and would LOVE to pick your brain on room treatment.
Keep on doing what you guys do, very good content 🥂♥️
Thank you so much! Ask your questions re: room acoustics here or shoot me a DM on IG.
So happy knowing you guys watch together! Be sure to watch the video we did on our room treatment for ideas.
Thank you for another excellent video. I really enjoy your offerings here very much. I do watch them completely. I really appreciate Kristi and her thoughts/perspectives very much. She complements the reviews nicely. Thank you both. Cheers!👍🙂
Thank you very much!
The S10 are absolutely beautiful! I love the glossy finish! Of course I am older than both of you and the Deco look remind be of that era! I live in Manhattan and those Speakers belong in Radio City Music Hall
Great review!
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts (if possible) on these vs Zu Druids (V or VI).
Praise indeed Andrew & I love the look of them.
Great to see a review in the new house. The Lii Song look wonderful and I do agree a matte or satin finish would be a great option.
The slat wall sections, and the entire space, look great!
Is the print of kid blowing a bubble going to make an appearance in the new house? I love that print and been tempted to get it for our house.
We still have the painting. Just need to find a home for it.
Mine just arrived 2 weeks ago still dialing them in. They look and sound wonderful just as you described I'm getting a slight imbalance in the soundstage. Thanks for the setup info.
Which color did you get?
@@KristiWright same as yours the finish could have been better.
Sorry to hear about the thinning hair brother, I know the struggle. I’m glad you got some help. Just remember, in the end all that matters is what’s in your heart, not on your head. Stay strong
Great review! However, I’d like to hear more about your hair care regimen and Keeps. Your hair looks amazing compared to a year ago!!!
Those look beautiful in your newly designed room!!! When you do a review, what determines if you are going to hook up a new set of speakers to an A/V receiver such as your Onkyo RZ50, or to a dedicated amp? I'm still a little confused on if I "need" an amp, or just continue using my A/V receiver. Maybe this is a discussion for a different thread, but as I was watching, I wondered if hooking them up to the Onkyo (or another A/V receiver) would have yielded any different sound as you went through your tests. As always, thanks for the amazing work on your videos!!!
Happy Easter. Great review and those speakers although way too large for my space but it fits nicely in your new space. Love the details on the driver. No need for a grill to hide those details. Thanks for stressing placement is key and is probably the cheapest tweak anyone can do to enhance their listening experience.
Always a joy to see you around, Brian. Have a lovely day!
Thank you Brian! Lii Audio does make smaller speakers around the same principles if you're interested. Placement is always key, but especially with these, but man, once you get there, they're great!
Great video guys! Your new home looks awesome, by the way. 👍🏻 any chance of reviewing the Fleetwood Sound Deville speakers?
Thanks, Chuck! No plans for Fleetwood but that can always change.
@@KristiWright awesome! More power to both of you!! Happy Easter!!
Check out Steve Huff Photo, he’s in rapture with those
While those speakers are WAY too big for use in my space, they are absolutely gorgeous in yours! And like others have said, I thought they'd be considerably more expensive. Your home reno vids were really cool, but I'm glad you're able to do reviews again. Many kudos!
Thanks for a great review, these speakers look great in your new room. Have you considered reviewing the Pearl Acoustics Sibelius? They are another single driver speaker. I bought a pair and I’d love hear a comparison.
What do YOU think of them?
@@gustercc I love them, not at first, they didn’t pair with my Hegel H90, I replaced it with a Canor AI2.10 (also partly reviewed here) and a Denafrips Pontus II. Now they make me smile every time I listen to them. I really think this may be my forever system.
Thanks for the video you two! Super curious to see how these would stack up to the Pearl Sibelius? I know Paul Messenger liked them, but that doesn't mean everyone will. But they really seem to be dominating the single driver discussion these days and I don't know if I'd cave sooner for Pearls or for Forte IVs
Those speakers are totally Art Deco in style. Great looking
My main floor standing are Revel performa series and although I usually abhor high gloss finish, the revels showed me when it's done right it's beautiful.
Revel makes a great speaker!
Love the free banter between Kristi and Andrew:)
As a non-American viewer, I thank you for your consideration, your efforts, and your erudition.
Edit: And I apologize for the typo. Mea culpa.
Thank you😊
Been searching for a decent review if theese since I saw them in your last video (last that I saw), but could not find any.
Sound like they are not for me though (may be a bit sensitive to placement, and as I am looking for replacements in my hometheather, it might not work out well. I am actually thinking about going for Monitor Audio Bronze 100's in all channels, and some more subs, only have 3🤪).
It sounds like theese Lii's are more suited for a dedicated musicroom/ 2 channel. In my space, the center has to be close to the wall, about 60 cm from frontbaffle to the wall.
Love the dynamics between the two of you 🤪
Great review! Been looking forward to this.
You touched on how the S-10’s compare to the Forte IV’s. As for imaging capabilities and soundstage, which of the two is stronger in this?
Thanks!
When the S10s are setup correctly, the soundstage between the two speakers is fairly equivalent, though the Forte IVs are less picky and image better/easier with less fuss.
Love my Lii Audio F-15 in some custom made open baffles, they sound amazing!!
Can you please share the baffle design ?
That cone makes me think of Lowther. I heard a friend's P6M once - the most live-sounding speaker I've ever heard.
Excellent review...l enjoyed it. Your Decware amp looks lonely. You need a ZP3 phonostage and turntable to keep it company. Decware has a 300b set amp on the horizon. It is based off their SE34i.6 amp. Would be nice to have a review of it when it comes out.
I have a pair of Lii Song F12 full range drivers mounted in open baffles I made last year. I was one of the first 20 people that ordered a pair when they came out. They sound fantastic with my 1959 Motorola tube amp. I need a Goldwood 18" woofer mounted on a baffle for the bass channel. That old Motorola has an EL84 stereo set amp with an EL84 push-pull Bass channel. Basically a 2.1 tube amp from 1959. The more things change...the more they remain the same.
Gonna have to check this one out after easter brunch. Cool
Enjoy!
Please do and enjoy your brunch!
NIce review. If you have the chance, could you compare it to the Philharmonic Audio BMR tower, thks
14:40 I have that problem with single driver speakers. Move your head an inch each way and it's just the left speaker, then just the right speaker. I solved that by increasing top end a bit and then angling the drivers upwards a lot (for a semi omni directional sound). The intense beam of treble form FR drivers (that is normally an ear full) passes over your head when angled upwards. The highs reflect from the walls and ceiling to add treble to the off axis sound. With the extra treble fed into the drivers you can't listen to them straight on, but you never do very much with the steeply angled driver placement. The sound is more airy too. The only way I could solve the problem. FR drivers are notoriously directional!
Nice review! Room looks amazing!
I wonder in future reviews if you could maybe B roll a portion of you standing next to the speakers? It would give us a reference point as to how big some of these speakers are.
Cheers!
Appreciate the idea. Thanks for watching!
I remember watching your review of the Klipsch Heresy’s and thinking they looked pretty large….and then finally seeing them in person and I realized they were much smaller than I had initially imagined.
🤷♂️😊
Happy Easter!
Thanks for joining us, Josh!
Morning Josh!
@@KristiWright Always my pleasure!
great looking speakers i could bet they are vintage so being new great surprise with that said wish they have another down or back firing driver for bass ..
Great review 👍 reminds me of the old coral beta 10
Any chance chance of reviews of higher powered Decware Amps? Thank you for starting to review open baffle speakers. Waiting for Spatial Audio review. No pressure ;)
That's the most beautiful driver I have ever seen.
Spot on with placement, drivers like this is a different ball-game right? I can hear differences with moving in milimeters with my Tannoys.
Too narrow=laserbeam top-end in the centre
Too wide=loss of centre coherence
Notice how volume differences between L/R is your very first CRUCIAL step in placement (with dual concentric drivers). Forward /backward volume difference needs to be accurate or forget it. You will end up in a rabbit hole.
Also diffusion (@ the 1st reflection) on the ceiling is great tip to attack first! Smoooooth!
As somebody who uses (and sells) different Audio Nirvana full range speakers I would truly love to know what kind of placement alleviates the directionality of these speakers. With full ranges of this size that's a compromise you just have to live with, or so I thought.
If sitting to the right you don't want to hear everything from the right speaker the only thing you can do - in my experience - is to toe the speakers in severely so that you see the outer sides of the cabinets.
Hi Andrew my speakers are 88db will the decware work for me as I’m in a small room and I don’t play music loud.
Great Chanel
Same speaker line Steve Decert uses. I believe you tested his open baffle with the 15". Maybe a review of the Caintuck open baffle using this speaker is in order.
LOL wrote this too soon.
Really appreciate that you gave the speakers height in metric units. Would be great if you could give all dimensions in your videos in metric untis as well. Even if the metric equivalent is only show for a moment as you give the imperial measurement. Thanks for the great video.
Congrats on your first review in the new home! Magnificent speakers but they look to be a handful to move around or transport. 😂
They're physically big, yes, but they're not too heavy (despite Decware's spec sheet). I'm not sure if the weight given on the website is their packaged weight, but out of the box, they're not featherweights, but easy enough for an average person to move.
Love the review. I think these are a bargain by the review you gave. If I had the room they would be a perfect match to my SET amp Line magnetic 210ia.
Looks like the room is made for these speakers. Fits perfectly even with the glossy finish.
It likely didn't hurt that we had them while undergoing renovation so perhaps there was some subtle influence.
I’d love y’all input on svs ultra bookshelfs, hopefully y’all can review them
Hola!! I'm that zu guy from the live stream and I am really into full range loudspeakers. There is really something to these kind of speakers that's a bit different than other floorstanders. These kinds of speakers are soooo picky on placent like you said..but once dialed in, its magical!! But it's a maddening before you hit the sweet spot. Also I can tell your new crib is way more spacious...now the living room stuff sits way off in the distance than where they were in your old crib .
Yeah, it can be a little bit of a struggle, but when you get it right, it's REALLY CAPTIVATING!
@@andrewrobinsonreviews i appreciate you and Kristi, the causes you champion and making this hobby fun!
Finally a review on those babies. They look like a piece of art. They compliment the room so nicely. Wow Kristy compares them with the Focal. Good to hear you're back.
Curious do you have any experience with Tonewinner amps? I was looking at the AD-7300 2.0. Is there another power amplifier you recommend under 2k?
I know that Tonewinner is the OEM for a lot of manufacturers in the name-brand hifi space, so in a way, we may all have experience with their products ;).
@@andrewrobinsonreviews Thank you.
It is gorgeous. I bet it sounds amazing. Great to have another review from you. Cheers
Thank you kindly!
Maybe you should listen to the lii liionidas, which have the silver 10 driver and also a w 15 woofer . They are open baffle... In that case they could compete better against the focal ones.
If you like the finish then check out Fyne audio from Scotland. Not sure if they sell in the US but it's a bunch of ex Tannoy engineers and they make some beautiful speakers with coaxial drivers. When I saw these first they reminded me of the Fyne F704s but with a full frequency single driver design or maybe the flagship Fyne F1 - 10 but with a smaller diameter driver. I'm not usually a fan of piano gloss walnut but when it's done right it can look superb.
You should try and get your hands on a set of Celestion Ditton 66's for a vintage review would love to hear your take on them! I'm not a professional but they are my favorite sounding speakers I've heard
