FAQ

Q: How do I connect these speakers with a turntable that has a built-in pre-amplifier?
A: You will need a separate amplifier since these speakers are passive, not active. Active speakers have a power source and will have a volume control. Passive speaker have no power source and no volume control. You will need to connect the turntable to the amp and then connect the amp to the speakers using speaker wire.

Q: Is it a pair or a single speaker?
A: It is a pair of speakers.

Q: How does the bass on this compare to the R15? I only plan to use them in my bedroom and don't want to spend on a subwoofer.
A: The bass on the R14 is good for its size and should be sufficient for personal use in a bedroom. We cannot compare it directly with the R15 as we have not owned them.

Q: What is the range of these 4" woofer speakers? Hz to kHz?
A: We are not sure of the exact numbers, but these speakers perform better at high-end levels due to their 4-inch woofer size.
