AirPulse A200 Active Bookshelf Bluetooth Speaker System with Signature Phil Jones Design - Cherry Wood

Product Information

With its cherry wood veneer, exposed tweeter and striking aluminium cone mid-woofer, the AirPulse A200is a seriously good-looking 2.0 speaker system. It allows for up to four wired inputs, while there is also support for Bluetooth 4.0 (with aptX) connections as well. For a full overview and discussion of the overall sound, be sure to watch our video.

The devices can be cleaned and reused. Careful attention should be given to disinfecting the devices. In professional mode, the two speakers’ XMOS processors convert analog audio from the balanced and unbalanced inputs to 24/96 PCM. Positive expiratory pressure therapy (PEP) works by preventing the collapse of the airways and increasing what air is left in the lungs or functional residual capacity. The sound was noticeably warmer and rounder, with less glare; and it was also livelier and more engaging. Microdynamics were much improved, and I became more aware of Corea’s varied touch on the piano; for example, his legato chords decayed more slowly and naturally. Blade’s cymbals were less splashy, and the nylon strings on Josele’s guitar sounded warmer—they had been harder and edgier with the A300Pros’ digital connection when the speakers were in wireless mode. Pardo’s flute was less shrill, and the blowing noises less edgy and pronounced. The soundstage was wider and deeper, and also more filled-in; with the digital connection, the players had seemed more like cardboard cutouts. AirPulse states that the new-gen Bluetooth circuitry is BT5.0 compatible via a Qualcomm chipset and supports codecs up to aptX with an input sample rate of up to 192 kHz. It will pair in the normal fashion with any transmitting source such as your phone or compatible desktop transmitter such as the FiiO BTA30 Pro. USBOf course, this is with music in mind of course, since these are desktop as well as bookshelf speakers it would be remiss to avoid any mention of other use cases.

Unfortunately, only a few research studies have shown OPEP to be helpful in patients with lower respiratory tract illnesses. OPEP devices use positive pressure and oscillation. They work by shifting the air pressure in the airways and by preventing airway collapse. They allow for “lung cleaning” or mobilizing mucus and secretions.On Punch Brothers’ “All Ashore,” Thile’s high-tenor voice sounded a little fuller and more embodied through the KEFs. While still impressively wide and deep, the soundstage was less vast than it was with the Airpulse speakers. With Thile’s mandolin, Pikelny’s banjo, and Witcher’s fiddle, the KEFs had less of the ringing clarity I enjoyed so much with the Airpulses. But Eldridge’s guitar and Kowert’s double bass sounded warmer and woodier through the KEFs. Overall, the KEFs sounded a little smoother, and the Airpulses were a little edgier, but also more incisive and revealing.

In wireless mode, the primary speaker uses KleerNet technology to send digital audio wirelessly to the secondary speaker at 24/96 resolution. The primary speaker plays the right channel and the secondary speaker plays the left channel—this designation cannot be changed.Airpulse speakers are designed using the most advanced state of the art R&D and testing equipment led by the internationally renowned audio designer Phil Jones.
