Sound is one of the few gifts that keeps giving—long after the season ends. Below are three curated setups designed for different lifestyles: refined home listening, creator workflows, and minimalist everyday spaces.

Setup 01 • Home Listening

S1000MKII + SS02 Speaker Stand

A great speaker deserves more than a surface—it deserves proper placement. Pairing the S1000MKII with the SS02 stand is a clean, performance-minded way to elevate a listening space without adding clutter.

  • More stable performance: correct height and steadier positioning can improve clarity and control.
  • Cleaner room layout: frees up surfaces and reduces visual noise.
  • Design-forward pairing: a setup that looks intentional, not improvised.
Best for
Living rooms, listening corners, and home setups where sound and interior design are equally important.
Setup 02 • Creator Workflow

Creator Start Kit: MR4 + ES850NB

Creative work rarely stays in one place. This pairing supports a modern workflow: MR4 for focused near-field listening at your desk, and ES850NB for reviewing and refining on mobile—without losing your reference point.

  • MR4 at the desk: a dependable near-field setup for editing, mixing, and everyday creation.
  • ES850NB on the move: a practical way to keep working when you’re away from your workspace.
  • Consistency matters: better monitoring helps you make faster, more confident decisions.
Best for
Content creators, video editors, musicians, students, and anyone building ideas across multiple environments.
Setup 03 • Minimalist Living

A Simple Spatial Setup (Two Bluetooth Speakers)

Sometimes, less truly is more. A simple stereo approach using two Bluetooth speakers (such as 2xES60 or 2xES300) can bring real width and separation to everyday listening—without the complexity of a full system.

  • Easy stereo upgrade: gain a wider soundstage with minimal setup.
  • Flexible placement: ideal for apartments, secondary rooms, or shared spaces.
  • Clean and adaptable: great sound without cables taking over your room.
Best for
Small apartments, secondary spaces, and listeners who want simplicity without sacrificing atmosphere.

Sound, chosen with intention

The most meaningful upgrades are the ones that feel effortless once they’re in place—supporting how you listen, create, and unwind every day. Choose the setup that fits your life now, and keeps fitting it long after the season ends.
