Pro
Combines a fun sound, a number of connectivity options and tone controls at a great price
With the S1000DB, you get a fun and detailed sound, versatile connectivity and the option to adjust the sound signature. Not many high end speakers offer this feature set, and not at this relatively affordable price.

Con
The highs and lows can overpower the mids
The boosted highs and bass may drown out the details of the mids. This can be noticeable when listening to rock music or when watching movie scenes where there are a lot of explosions while the characters are speaking.

Con
Tone controls can be hard to reach
The tone control knobs are situated at the back of the speakers, making them difficult to reach. While this ensures that the design of the speakers looks clean, you’ll have to go through some guesswork with regards to the levels of the volume, bass, and treble.

Fun sound with slight emphasis on the bass and highs
These speakers are quite fun to listen to and will make music, as well as game and movie audio sound lively. The highs are slightly boosted but do not get harsh. This results in audio that is detailed and airy. The low-end is also boosted, so bass hits have good thump and power while explosions, gunshots and similar sound effects from movies and games will really stand out. The mids are not boosted but instead sound natural, warm and full-bodied so vocals and guitars will still sound pretty good.

Great soundstage and imaging
When positioned properly, these speakers can deliver immersive audio. Soundstage is quite wide, while instrument separation is very good. You’ll be able to pick out individual instruments from the music, and you can also easily appreciate audio panning and directional sound.

Con
Requires stands for optimal performance
You might want to consider investing in stands, as the 3020s are designed to perform optimally when placed on stands instead of a table/desk.

Pro
Clear highs and full mids
The highs of the 3020 are crisp, airy and full of detail. You’ll be able to easily pick out the nuances of the audio. The highs do not get harsh though, so these are smooth and easy to listen to. The mids are full and sound quite natural. Vocals, guitars and keys sound very good and have a warm and life-like timbre. The bass is tight and controlled, but not very powerful.

Con
Amp/receiver is needed
These are passive speakers, so they will not function properly when plugged straight to your computer, TV, or smartphone/media player. You’ll need to hook these up with an audio receiver or speaker amplifier.

Pro
Easy to drive
You do not need a powerful speaker amplifier to run these. At 6 ohms impedance, these speakers should deliver great volume and audio quality with a decent amp.

Con
The sound lacks energy
Due to the forward mids, the highs and bass are compromised. There is not a lot of sparkle from the high frequencies and the low end is not very powerful. You’ll need to make EQ adjustments for an airier sound and add a subwoofer to increase bass output.

Pro
Clean sound with forward mids
If you love mids then you’ll find HD6’s sound signature to be quite appealing. Overall sound is clear, with the mids getting extra emphasis. You’ll easily hear guitars and vocals and movie or game dialogue won’t be lost in the mix. The highs are slightly recessed so these speakers do not sound harsh at all, but at the expense of a bit of detail and airiness. The bass is present and tight, but not very powerful.
