Con
Front LEDs are too bright
You might find the LEDs on the front of the speakers to be distracting. They are very bright and can get annoying, especially if you tend to use these speakers in a dark area.

Fairly neutral sound signature
The BT5’s audio output is on the neutral side, making it great for mixing use. The highs are clear and have good detail, so you’ll be able to pick out the nuances of the music. The mids are warm and full, so vocals will not be lost in the mix. The bass is slightly boosted so the low-end has some punch, but does not overpower the other frequencies.

Con
Connecting via Bluetooth has a significant effect on the sound
Audio quality from these speakers will take a hit when connecting via Bluetooth. Clarity may be affected, and low-end thump may also be decreased.

Single wired input only

Con
Some build quality issues
Many users consider the AV42s to be too light, which, they feel, is a sign of poor quality. Also, there have been many reports of users having issues with the speaker volume levels significantly different between pairs.
