Recommended! By Steve Withers. "Dunkirk's explosions hit with a visceral LFE impact. The Subwoofer 1 attacks without overstaying its welcome" Verdict "Not as small as its name suggests, this superbly-built 5.1 system can be driven hard to deliver a dynamic and enjoyable performance."

The Little Giant! Conclusion Sure, I have certainly heard even better tripod speakers than these models form Arendal Sound. Both with even better refinement and with slightly better dynamics.

Impressive Norwegian sound Arendal really has something to bring to this price range. 1723 Monitor S is maybe not the hifi-purists immediate choice, however if you are looking for a speaker that is dynamic, energetic, alive and really fun to listen to, it is a clear [...]

It is hardly a surprise that we like Arendal’s loudspeakers, and especially when you want to have fun with movies in your home theater.

COMPACT TURBOCHARGER Arendal 1723 Monitor S THX - powerful speaker system in compact size The brand Arendal already caused quite a furore with the 1723 system back in summer 2017. Now they raise the stakes presenting the 1723 Monitor S, an equally powerful speaker set including THX certificate, but in a more compact package. FINAL [...]
