Sound quality: Audio Pro's C10 MKII had Very Good overall sound quality - although it has some noticeable sonic quirks, this model reproduces music and dialog very well. Bass has good impact and goes fairly deep, but is a bit boomy. Midrange is even, but is a bit grainy and a touch hazy. Treble is extended, but is a touch smeared, sizzly, dry, and the upper treble is a touch subdued. Does a decent job of recovering room ambience and is a bit congested. The two channel sound field extends a bit above and not much beyond the sides of the enclosure and lacks depth. No significant difference between WiFi, Bluetooth and aux sound quality. When stereo paired, the room ambience improves to good but the overall score improves a bit but remains in the Very Good range. Provides a decent volume level in a medium sized room.

Source selection buttons are well placed; they clearly indicate with an indicator light which source has been selected.
