We're glad to announce that the Scansonic MB-1 monitor speakers received an award in the UK - the "Hi-Fi Choice RECOMMENDED" Award.

Andrew Everard, Hi-Fi Choice (UK) June 2015 concluded:
"...if you’re looking for rather superior speakers for use in a small or medium-sized room, and can afford both the speaker/stands package, at around £1,800 all-in and the kind of amplifier you’ll need to hear them at their best, this is a highly competitive design. By combining room friendliness – that front-venting port means that you can use them close to a rear wall – stylish looks and a very persuasive sound seemingly beyond its modest dimensions, Scansonic has come up with loudspeaker well worthy of a serious audition..."  CLICK HERE to check it out

The very first review for Scansonic's mid-line speakers, the MB-2.5 is out. It confirms what we think, the Scansonic speakers have way more of Raidho's DNA then the very affordable prices would suggest. 

Alan Sicrom, Hi-Fi Plus (UK) April 2015, concluded:
"...you won’t find anything close to doing what the MB‑2.5 do for the money. They have enough of the Raidho genetic code to sound like Raidho, but not enough to stop a prospective Raidho owner from changing their mind... That’s the big thing about the Scansonic MB‑2.5, there are those who’ve heard what Raidho do and love it, but hate the price. They simply cannot or will not make that kind of financial commitment on a pair of loudspeakers, no matter how good. Those people will see the Scansonic range as a golden opportunity. It brings them much of what the Raidho speakers offer in a more affordable, more approachable package. Very highly recommended!" Check out the entire review
