Medium Size Powered Bookshelf Speakers

Ranked #15 of 64 in Medium Size Powered Bookshelf Speakers - Vanatoo Transparent One Encore Plus: $699.99 Amazon eBay

Vanatoo Transparent One Encore Plus ranking card

Pros: Erin’s Klippel data combines a small 1.7dB midrange response span with a -3dB point around 44Hz. Scores of 4.68 standalone and 6.49 with an ideal subwoofer make it an attractive standalone system as well as a subwoofer partner. Remote tone controls, multiple digital and analog inputs, and automatic subwoofer crossover engagement simplify setup.

Cons: A mild 4-6kHz edge and a smaller 1-2kHz recession were audible in the review, so its smooth midrange summary does not mean there is nothing to improve with EQ. No HDMI ARC. Deep bass and louder playback still benefit from a subwoofer; amplifier wattage alone does not establish clean room-filling output.

Ranked #33 of 64 in Medium Size Powered Bookshelf Speakers - Vanatoo Transparent Zero Plus: $499.99 Amazon eBay

Vanatoo Transparent Zero Plus ranking card

Pros: Erin’s data shows a small 1.7dB span from 300Hz to 5kHz and a broadly level midrange trend. Scores of 3.18 standalone and 5.84 with an ideal subwoofer support it as a useful compact desktop option. Flexible cabinet orientation, multiple inputs and automatic subwoofer crossover behavior help with setup.

Cons: The measured -3dB point is around 95Hz, with a much lower F10 in the original review; this is not flat bass to the low-50Hz region. Vertical listening angle changes the upper-midrange response. The review finds cleaner results at moderate levels than near maximum output, where multitone distortion increases. A subwoofer is particularly valuable here.
