The M2 is one of the best sounding speaker systems I have heard. Lows sounds great with the added subwoofer and I can feel the air moving by my feet when listening to a song with hard hitting base.
IRIP 2.1 REVIEW BLUETOOTH
I have owned a few Bluetooth speakers in my life, but none of them were 2.1 speaker systems so I expected the Kinivo M2 to deliver some decent sound quality. Here is the most important part of any speaker review, because at the end of the day, a speaker’s main purpose is to create the best sound possible. With the subwoofer placed beneath my desk, I found that it was easy to adjust the volume with my foot and that has been working quite well so far. It is easy to turn and sometimes almost too sensitive. Speaking of the volume knob, it is located on the side of the Kinivo M2’s subwoofer. Placing all the controls on the back of the subwoofer did make for a cleaner product, but I do with the buttons had been placed in an easier to reach spot such as next to the volume knob. While this is not difficult when the M2 is out in the open, having it below my desk required me to get on my hands and knees to reach the button. To switch between wired and Bluetooth, you must press the “Source” button on the back of the subwoofer. If you want to pair a device that does not have NFC, you can do that by pressing the “Pair” button on the back of the subwoofer and searching for the M2 in your device’s Bluetooth settings. One great feature of the M2 is that it uses NFC so all I had to do was set my phone on top of the subwoofer and select that I wanted to pair with the speaker. The Kinivo M2 can accept audio from both a wired and Bluetooth source so the next step was connecting my phone to the speaker system. With the subwoofer hooked up, all that was left was plugging in the satellite speakers into the correct places and setting them on my desk. I decided to replace my old desktop computer speakers with the M2, which was simple with the included 3.5mm-to-RCA cable.
S etting up the Kinivo M2 was a piece of cake. The blue-white light is almost futuristic and I love anything that lights up. This system is not going to blow anyone away in the looks department, but it feels solid and well-built while still managing to look nice. My favorite aesthetic feature of the M2 has to be the glowing ring around the volume know.
From just taking them out of the box and setting them up on my desk, the fronts were covered with prints and I had to spend some time cleaning them off. The satellite speakers are plastic and have a glossy finish on the front that picked up fingerprints extremely easily. The wooden subwoofer felt solid and the gold accents along the black speakers popped. When I first took the M2 out of the box, I thought it looked pretty nice. The power cable is built into the subwoofer and a 3.5mm-to-RCA cable is also included. In the box, you find two 2.5″ wired satellite speakers and one 6.5″ subwoofer.
