Summary

TLDRIn this review, the speaker evaluates two Swan speaker models: the M200 Mark II Wi-Fi Edition and the D1080 Mark II. The M200s offer Wi-Fi connectivity and multiple inputs but underperform on a desk due to their tweeters. In contrast, the D1080s deliver impressive sound for their price, excelling in rooms rather than desks. The reviewer praises Swan for designing speakers for specific environments and provides setup advice for optimal sound.
