Compact desktop monitors with Bluetooth and a 3.5 mm input, these are praised for surprisingly clear, neutral sound and a wide sound field from a very small cabinet. The compact footprint, flexible horizontal or vertical placement, and optional subwoofer output make them appealing for tight desks or minimalist setups. Bass is limited and falls off at lower volumes, so a subwoofer may help. The main usability drawbacks are no physical volume knob and no dedicated power switch, though the front button can put them into standby.

Common Questions (5)

  • It has no physical volume knob and no dedicated power switch. The front LED button handles input switching and can be held for about 4 seconds to put the speakers into standby/off.

  • Bass is limited and drops off further at lower volumes, so they are not a bass-heavy setup. They can work well with a subwoofer through the sub output if you want fuller low end.

  • Yes, their compact cabinet and ability to sit horizontally or vertically make them a strong fit for tight desks. They are described as clear and loud for their size, with a broad sound field from the 2-inch BMR driver.

  • No, the grilles were sold separately, so the speakers arrive with the drivers exposed. Magnetic grilles exist, but they can be hard to find now that Drop is gone.

  • Yes, they include Bluetooth, a 3.5 mm input, and a sub/aux output. The front button switches between aux and Bluetooth, and the rear sub output supports adding a subwoofer or running a 2.1 setup.

Still up under their tools category. SD adds some tracking redirection to their links (so they can get ad revenue and keep the lights on) but your browser or network is probably blocking that redirection server. I'd post the direct link but it would just get changed. Check the woot site under tools (strangely) or use wootsearch.com
Thank you!

Not entirely sure what the popular take on these are, but I was an early adopter back in the day. They're fine (and probably pretty good for that price) but FWIW my pair has a tendency to overheat and sometimes audio distort just from sitting for a while.

I had the V1(preordered it since I liked their other audio equipment) and they were pretty terrible. I needed to buy a ground loop noise isolator just so it wouldn't hiss all the time. Audio also would turn tinny randomly like it was playing through bluetooth with a shitty connection but it was through wired 3.5mm. It made no sense.

These are v2, from what I can tell they claim to have improved the cooling a bit and added a standby mode

The grilles for these were sold separately so how they are shown in the photos (with speakers completely exposed) is how you will receive them. The grilles looked pretty nice and were magnetic but may not be easy to obtain since Drop is no more.
You can find them equally cheap on eBay, about $10There's also 3d printed versions which is also interesting for some

These are tempting but I can't justify a pair since I have Kanto Tuk

Thanks for posting this OP Smilie ... looks like tom's hardware did a review of the speakers here

https://www.tomshardware.com/revi...d-monitors

I see them at full price on amazon... it's a shame there's only one user review (so thanks very much to all the helpful people posting here re: their experiences with this speaker Smilie )

With Drop being dead, this is going to be a rare item. Was eyeing it since v1 so no brainer to just jump on it

Is this for one single speaker or a pair?
Also curious but I'm guessing a pair. Unbox videos show there's 2 slots for 2 speakers inside the box, and I doubt they're parting out packaging.

I bought a pair of V1s off ebay for 40. solid for the price. they don't go very low but if you don't have spade for a bookshelf speaker these are excellent for this price. I would say they're worth a solid 50-80 minimum
