The world's best computer speaker system So we decided we had to do it ourselves, and Feniks was born.
Feniks was founded with the aim of providing the best listening experience and exceptional quality to as many customers as possible without compromises. With the shifts in listening habits over the past decade away from traditional hi-fi to computers and all-in-one devices, true not just among general consumers but audiophiles, too, we noticed a gap for a really high quality computer speaker. Befo
re we came along customers had to settle between either generic plastic junk or spring for a pair of high-end monitors and the associated electronics. The result is the Essence active sound system: a product already being hailed as the "world's best computer speaker system" and recipient of 6moons.com's rare Blue Moon Award.

The ESSENCE setup of a customer in California. Nothing like a great sound system for long days in the office! Thanks for sharing your photo!

The Essence is one of DarkoAudio's 10 must-hear active speakers. Not a bad place to be! Thank you for the inclusion!
Also note that the set Mr. Darko reviewed had an ES9010 DAC chip, not the substantially better ES9018. We've also made improvements to the driver since then, so we think he'd like the Essence even more now.
For those who just want to set and forget,

Over the past few weeks we've been working on a recommended albums list full of well recorded music across a wide range of genres.
See the full list with 250+ albums here: https://feniksaudio.com/pages/albums
Tidal playlist: https://tidal.com/playlist/82e950f1-6b48-4cf3-b7e7-46fb183263d3
We started this list as a response to all the poor recordings out there. Unfortunately, the majority of commercial recordings use a high amount of dynamic range compression so that they sound acceptable even on poor equipment and in noisy environments like cars and public spaces. The result is that the sound quality is far from being as good as it could be. This list features albums with a relatively small amount of compression used, sometimes none at all, so they sound truly impressive on a good sound system.
Feel free to check it out and enjoy some excellent quality music! We update it regularly, and we welcome your input if you think an album deserves to be on the list.

Another excellent documentary well worth watching, this one about the intersection of music, recording, and reproduction.
"The Art of Listening is a documentary film about the journey music takes to reach a listener’s ear, from the intent of an instrument maker and composer, to the producers and engineers who capture and preserve an artist’s voice. This journey is narrated by intimate conversations with artists, engineers and producers about the philosophy of their work and the intent behind each musical note they create.
This film is an invitation for music fans to rediscover the intricacies and details available in the sounds of their favorite recordings. The Art of Listening is the beginning of a conversation of how the quality of our listening experiences define the medium."

This short documentary is definitely worth watching. It's a little bit too much like an ad, but the message is good, and important. We can never emphasize enough how important source quality is in order to hear what the musicians intended, and to hear what your sound system is really capable of. If possible, listen to lossless files, or even better 24-bit files.

The Distortion of Sound is a documentary about the decline of sound quality and how technology has changed the way we listen to music. It will open your ears...

Like a chameleon, the Black/Blue Essence looks vibrant in a bright room, but almost completely black when it gets darker. A unique and eye-catching combination!

Interesting fact: the black/red combination was the original color combo our designer, Robert, had in mind when he was designing our previous model, the ES-2. We're glad to see the combination doing well, with two sets sold just in the past week. See more at feniksaudio.com

A lot of new 24-bit music added to the TIDAL Masters catalog lately. Sounds superb on the ESSENCE! If you've never heard the difference between 16 and 24-bit files, try listening again on a high-end system. You'll not only hear a substantial improvement, but also experience a far greater emotional connection with your music!
