*THIS IS A TEST* -- With this video, we are trialling a new way of doing things: the comments section below has been switched ON but will be *moderated by a third party* who is under strict instruction not to approve racist or sexist remarks, URLs, (the seeds of) conspiracy theories or the unsubstantiated ramblings of grumpy geezers.
If this test goes well, we will consider activating third-party comment moderation on other videos.
The upshot? You have the possibility to leave a comment below the video but I don't get tied up in comment moderation and can stay focussed on making the next video, the next podcast and managing the Darko.Audio website and Patreon.
I am not here. I am elsewhere.

Thanks John for your input about this Q Active 200, i've been waiting for you to review them. I'm considering to get them over KEF LS50 Wireless II but after you're review i think I have a clear choice on which one to get. More power to your channel, I'm a fun from singapore.👍🏻

[@CatalinAdc]

Great review, also changed my mind in what I should buy. Best regards from Romania

[@anthonyperkins6025]

Thanks enjoyed your review. Just looking a active speakers and your review just shifted my decision.

[@dillonquackenbush3895]

Could you do the Q Acoustics Concept 40 or 20? Everyone has only reviewed the i series and the top end concept models so it would be cool to see where the middle range concept line fits.

[@Mr2pint]

You were very adamant at the end of this review about not being excited 🤣 I'll have to listen to the myself 👍

[@yesajith]

Does the dynamics matters while pairing with tv ?

[@tonyhodgkinson4586]

Hi Fi rif David Price gave a great review of these, just goes to show what you say it’s like ice cream, depends on what flavour one likes.

[@PottsyNo1]

What was the album you recommended around the 15 minute mark of the video? Thanks

[@pandren]

Seems to be Fila Brazillia - Old Codes New Chaos XX

[@mattsavedbygracengai]

Does anyone know what those acoustic panels behind John are called?

[@jorgepichardoarellano78]

Hey Darko, Q Active 200 or SVS Prime Wireless Pro, focus on music

[@dawolyan13]

What a strange review.
