HOW IS YOUR ROOM SET UP?
My living room is roughly 7.5 m by 4.5 m, and I’m currently running a 4.0.2 system.

What was your goal when looking for new speakers and subwoofers?
I was looking for speakers that were extremely well built and designed to last a long time. From a sound perspective, accuracy was most important to me—good imaging and a wide soundstage without sounding overly lush or too bright.








WHERE DID YOU HEAR ABOUT US?
I first came across Arendal Sound through an Erin’s Audio Corner YouTube review. That video got me interested in learning more about the brand and its approach to speaker design.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE ARENDAL SOUND?
Build quality was a big factor for me, along with the consistent feedback in reviews describing Arendal speakers as accurate and capable of sounding much larger than their physical size.
YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE PRODUCTS?
I love how the speakers look in my new apartment—they’re beautifully finished and feel very premium. Beyond that, friends and family who’ve visited have consistently commented on how clear and natural the vocals sound for both music and movies.
WHAT ELSE DOES YOUR SYSTEM CONSIST OF?
- Fronts: Arendal 1528 Bookshelf
- Rear Surrounds: Arendal 1961 Height
- Front Heights: Arendal 1961 Height

HOW HAPPY ARE YOU WITH ARENDAL SOUND PRODUCTS?
I’m very happy with the soundstage and imaging I’m getting right now. Down the road, I may add a subwoofer to help offload some of the low-frequency work from the front speakers.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE?
Customer service was incredibly helpful throughout my decision-making and purchase process. For anyone considering Arendal Sound, I’d encourage them to reach out—customer service is approachable and honest about whether a product is a good fit for your room.
