Such a fun review. Made me laugh while still imparting the important things about these speakers. So entertaining. This is what I really like about your channel. Good work.
There was not one single bit of information given about these speakers that could be taken as serious or truthful. I gained nothing from this vid. Just lost ten minites I'll never get back. Really odd vid.
Loved the review and the intimate parodies involved, but as a person who's been interested in these S400 MKII's and waiting for Darko's take on them, I'm left feeling confused as to what he actually thinks of them. Haha
I agree. It feels like a review that John was forced to do rather than one he wanted to which is odd. I guess he wouldn’t “highly recommend” if he wasn’t serious but the whole thing feels like he’s taking the p*ss. I also have been waiting for this review for about 6 months and am none the wiser after this. A comparison to the LS50 meta was what I wanted (because like John I own those) I guess I will have to buy them and find out for myself. Oh woe is me,. [Edit] : I had no idea it was April. I am a clown.
@@gregstevenson7401 he said the it “is highly recommended”. He didn’t say that he recommends it. As Bill Clinton said, it depends on what your definition of “is” is. I don’t know what to think either.
Love how somebody just entering into this hobby would look at this review and take it a completely different way than a veteran would. Dry humor at its best, really got me cracking up!
John: “Technically speaking, this speaker is a bookshelf speaker. I didn’t have a bookshelf on hand, so I had to use the stands Buchardt sent me.” Me: “Is he drunk? He sounds drunk.” John: “Hotel California. Not the album version; the Hell Freezes Over Unplugged version. Again, another song I just can’t get enough of.” Me: “Wait… what’s going on here?” Diana Krall, Boz Skaggs… Me: “Oh, it’s April Fools Day where he is. Got it.” John: “…and playing that through the Buchardts I heard accuracy I’d not heard since the last speaker I reviewed.” Me: “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!” That was hysterical. Loved it. Thank you, and happy April Fools Day. ❤️
@@andyeban No one said they're bad songs, but they're pretty standard, and "Hotel California" in particular has been ran into the ground so hard I can't imagine scenario where I'd ever want to go out of my way to listen to it.
He should really pick up that Boz Scaggs album and begin to enjoy listening to music. That would free him from “acting cool,” and dropping names of posers who can’t play their instruments. And making fun of Take Five, he thinks, makes him look cool. Yeah, then skip to track number 4 from that disc, dude.
John, please don't be afraid to show a little enthusiasm! Seriously, this is why I subscribe to your channel because you show genuine reaction to the audio environment that you create. It gives needed insight into how to evolve my system to the next level. Kudos!!
Hey ... now, I just came back from Montreal Audiofest ... the playlist is so accurate, it’s ridiculous. PS Audio was demo-ing their new speakers to an empty room. So they put on Take Five and within a minute the room was full. Audiophiles were attracted to it like flies to a sh*t.
You know when you have one of those days when you think whats going on here and then the penny drops!!! So so funny thank you John I loved that! It lifted me no end, I cannot stop chuckling to myself. Top job fella!!
April’s fool”s best. All the audio show’s anthems. Musical speaker. You hit all the notes although some of them hurt you did make me laugh. Hope that Buchardt are on board. A great one mr Darko.
never had Buchardt speakers before but didn't hesitate to order the MKII as I had watched loads of positive reviews of its predecessor and its active siblings. been using the MKII for over six months, love it! for music and for movies.
Very subtle John. Took me a while to catch on….the size of the soundstage and your musical tastes were on the money. Thanks and Happy April Fool’s to all. ps I’m guessing you do actually love these speakers.
I watched this at about 4:00am Central time here in the U.S., and pretty much knew from the beginning this was an April Fool's episode - all the absolutes, the lack of comparisons, "can't get enough of...", and the final stroke, Diana Krall. The show cracked me up, but left me wondering what you really thought of the S400's. Thanks for the change of pace. Great show as usual.
Nice touch with Nils Lofgren, Diana Krall, and all the cliche audiophile favorite artists and tracks. You mentioned Random Access Memories and I was like, “didn’t he mentioned he hated that album in a previous video?” Happy April Fool’s.
“Dude”. Striking hard wit and hilarious cuts into the heart of it all. As was so needed and even if it was not a 4/1 play. Bravo sir and thank you so ever much for goofing (but not).
You gigantic, world class joker you!! You had me again!! I can't believe it! It was a whole 5mins until the penny dropped! Brilliant stuff! You've put a big fat smile on my face that's probably going to come back every time I think of this vid - as did the HiFi Plants last time! keep up the good work - so great your don't take yourself or all this Audiophile stuff too seriously. thanks a million for keeping me entertained as well as informed... Alan :0) Norfolk, UK PS. Like another of the viewer's comments said - once I had realised what you were up to, I was really just waiting to hear you say you had listened to the R-H-C-Peppers and that the S400 IIs had transformed your view of them and you now love their music!
This came up in my notifications and I freakin' knew that this was going to be an April Fools joke. I avoided watching it all day... but after a long week, even though I tried resisting the siren call, this keeps coming up in my RUclips menu... and I relented. You got me, John Darko.
Aaah, I was 1st April fooled. Cudos on you John for a brilliant video. The Bingo Buzz word Chart is hilariously fun. Intrigingly interesting to watch your upcoming video on the Buchart's.
Of all the RUclips audio equipment reviews I have heard, this is, without a doubt, one of them. FWIW, with all the pesky giants loitering about the area, finally, someone unabashedly proposes a definitive, yet humane, way to kill them off without distorting the feng shui of the room. You have come a long way, Grasshopper.
Was getting quite excited that albums I actually own were getting mentioned until I caught on. 😊😂 Genuinely funny and they do look like great speakers.
A money plant ie Jade Tree is a must. Rumour has it...you will never be poor if you have that plant is in your house. Which means.....money to buy more hi-fi gear. 😁
Thank you so much, John, for avoiding all the typical HiFi clichés and really telling us a lot about the gear! And!... I'm so grateful you finally mentined some real music that is worthy of HiFi shows in your review. These "Davids" take down the snobby overrated "Goliaths" that plague our hobby. Welp, time to go reapply my green marker!
I audioioned the A-500 due to your review, couldn't be happier! Only problem with them is the communication from the wireless hub to the speakers has problems at times, otherwise the sound is just beautiful. Buchardts' response and follow up is first rate.
A good one John. Thank you for putting a smile on our face. Nice speakers but still in love with my ATC SCM-20SL. I wonder when you'll have a review on any ATC speaker...
The mkii’s are great speakers. I had the originals and then bought the mkii’s, and after I’d been playing them for a while, my wife came down into the man cave and said “I was listening upstairs - what did you do to your speakers? Because the crossover point used to be 2000hz and these are crossing over at 1800”.
Interesting can I ask if you checked what influence the front wall has due to the large rear radiator for those that can’t pull them out into the middle of the room. Also would be very interested to know how they sound coupled to the M10 v2 you are currently testing Thanks John
You have to hear the Amphion Argone One spaeker. This brand Amphion is rarely reviewed. I am not a salesman, just a hifi lover who came in contact with a pair of very good sounding speakers for smaller rooms. Amphion is made in Finland and are handbild. Love your work Ludo
Legitimately one of the funniest videos I've seen on RUclips. There are so many little nuggets for long-time viewers who are familiar with your audiophile pet peeves. Edit: Also, I don't know how you managed to call these "musical" without gagging lol.
Thank you for awesome personal approach to the review. I'd love to come to Germany and meet you in the restaurant you mention, have good food and wine, and talk about music and hifi gear! Take care!
Can’t believe I was hoodwinked till you open the balcony doors to check the right soundstage!! 🤣 Should have known when you said that the fedex fella was excited!?!?
APRIL FOOLS!!! That was a blast LOL! I loved the pseudo subtlety of the whole thing, especially the not mentioned but couple of shots of the Diana Krall album, a Darko top 10 favorite! Loved the soundstage that extended to the neighbors flat and out the balcony! LOL. I am disappointed that there was no mention of the Red Hot Chili Peppers though! Are they growing on you John? Like a fungus perhaps? What a riot! Well done!
RHCP would have been perfect... Some of the other missed opportunities were some kind of lengthy commentary on the history and performance of some kind of obscure chamber piece and the speakers' ability to render it with unparalleled delicacy, and, when he talked about the bass, first throwing in some kind of random drum test track, and second he should have qualified it as "pants-flapping." OH - THE BIGGEST MISS OF ALL - HE SHOULD HAVE RECORDED A DEMO FOR US TO LISTEN TO, PREFERABLY WITH AN A/B COMPARISON
You make these speakers sound so amazing, I don't know if I should sell my new B&W802D4s and upgrade to these. Kidding but I wish there was some kind of ranking of speakers. Perhaps something that would rank their dynamics, frequency response, lack of distortion etc. That way we perhaps could compare the overall sound of these speakers and how they would rank against some high-end or low-end B&W speakers or any other brand. Unfortunately, most of us don't have the opportunity to just sit and listen to numerous brands of speakers and compare them. I do like your music suggestions. I would probably have some good ones that you might like as well.
Everyone seems to drool over these Buchardts. What makes them so great? Totally believe you. As many "audiophiles" that have reviewed them continue to wax poetic about their sound. Looks like a very robust woofer and the nice gradual slope of the tweeter's tapered baffle, but I don't understand why other speakers of similar design don't elicit such excitement. Thanks for saying, its about the music.
Oh my god I've always wanted a Giant Killer!! I'm literally running to my nearest Ikea to purchase 2 bookshelves as I wait for my end-game soundstage monstrosities. Finally an honest review that tells it like it is!! Hifi doesn't need to be expensive!! VIVA LA REVOLUCION!! My favorite part were the outtakes. How'd you manage the Take 5 segment without dying with laughter?
From my point of view, the crossover could still be reworked to completely straighten out the frequency response, which would also have a very positive effect on some of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' songs. Many greetings from Cologne.

I appreciate the subtle reference to last year's April 1 video. Nicely done!
Such a fun review. Made me laugh while still imparting the important things about these speakers. So entertaining. This is what I really like about your channel. Good work.
There was not one single bit of information given about these speakers that could be taken as serious or truthful. I gained nothing from this vid. Just lost ten minites I'll never get back. Really odd vid.
Love all the good mood of this video! Simply love these easy going reviews but precise at the same time 🙂
Loved the review and the intimate parodies involved, but as a person who's been interested in these S400 MKII's and waiting for Darko's take on them, I'm left feeling confused as to what he actually thinks of them. Haha
I agree. It feels like a review that John was forced to do rather than one he wanted to which is odd.

@@gregstevenson7401 he said the it “is highly recommended”. He didn’t say that he recommends it. As Bill Clinton said, it depends on what your definition of “is” is.
I don’t know what to think either.
His tone of his voice and body language tells me he likes them a lot. That’s the feeling I got when watching the video
April 1st ! Nonetheless, a very nice ad.
I would bet that that review you all are looking for is actually the “next video”.
It is really...truly fun to hear you having playful FUN executing a product review, Thank you for this review kind man.
A masterpiece of epic proportions. You did well to keep a calm relaxed face throughout, especially on your music recommendatiins. My compliments.
Love how somebody just entering into this hobby would look at this review and take it a completely different way than a veteran would. Dry humor at its best, really got me cracking up!
that'd be me? what is wrong with those tracks?
@@andyeban Aside from Hotel California, the track selection are legit?
Great video John, as always! really enjoyed having a laugh with you at the end. keep em coming!
John Darko is so far ahead of everyone else in the HiFi game. Congratulations!
John: “Technically speaking, this speaker is a bookshelf speaker. I didn’t have a bookshelf on hand, so I had to use the stands Buchardt sent me.”
Me: “Is he drunk? He sounds drunk.”
John: “Hotel California. Not the album version; the Hell Freezes Over Unplugged version. Again, another song I just can’t get enough of.”

John: “…and playing that through the Buchardts I heard accuracy I’d not heard since the last speaker I reviewed.”
Me: “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
That was hysterical. Loved it. Thank you, and happy April Fools Day. ❤️
yep, I still can't get over his previous AFD when he was talking about the audiophile plants 🤣
Yes, April fools.
why? all great tracks
@@andyeban No one said they're bad songs, but they're pretty standard, and "Hotel California" in particular has been ran into the ground so hard I can't imagine scenario where I'd ever want to go out of my way to listen to it.

My favourite review yet by you. Love how you mention the music you listened to because that's what it's about
I really like your videos, John. They are inspiring for us to seek the spirit of the audiophile hobby that is music. Thank you very much.
Hey ... now, I just came back from Montreal Audiofest ... the playlist is so accurate, it’s ridiculous. PS Audio was demo-ing their new speakers to an empty room. So they put on Take Five and within a minute the room was full. Audiophiles were attracted to it like flies to a sh*t.

Crazy talk John! Hilarious review of the sound stage giant killer :)
This was hilarious, but we really need a follow-up on what he really thinks about the speakers and if the manufacturer was in on it!
Great review. Very intriguing and made me want to listen to the S400 MKII's myself.
Outstanding john ,finally you mentioned cd albums we common people really like and are easy to get.As akways you are No 1 of audio reviewers
Shocked that every song and artist you listed are my “go to” tracks when listening to new equipment. Cool!
never had Buchardt speakers before but didn't hesitate to order the MKII as I had watched loads of positive reviews of its predecessor and its active siblings. been using the MKII for over six months, love it! for music and for movies.
Is it a giant killer, or just a competitive $2500 speaker?
Superbly done guys! thank you.
Very subtle John. Took me a while to catch on….the size of the soundstage and your musical tastes were on the money.
Thanks and Happy April Fool’s to all. ps I’m guessing you do actually love these speakers.
I hope he does a follow up as I’d like to know.
🤗 THANKS JOHN,FOR SHARING THIS WITH US AND WE LIKE YOUR ATTITUDE,YOUR HUMOR AND ALL YOUR MUSIC 🎶 CHOICES TODAY 👍 …PLEASE KEEP ⬆️ UP THE GOOD WORK 😍😍😍

Brilliant review. It is ALL about the music! Love it!
Great review. So pleased to see/hear someone using Boz Scaggs’ album ‘Dig’. Am also listening to Nils Lofgren now, thanks to you. 👍🏻
Funny thing is, my music taste is so remote from John's that this has given me a playlist I can relish.
Awesome review good sir! You left no audiophile cliché unturned!
This was absolutely the best "review" I have seen in a long time 😂
Simply wonderful - thank you for an Audio Fantabulous Jolly!
Very well done, but I hope this gets a more typical follow up, as I’m interested in these.
I Love your reviews and style and room! Always have.
I want to add that watching your videos make me want to go and listen to music, which is a compliment.
“Dude”. Striking hard wit and hilarious cuts into the heart of it all. As was so needed and even if it was not a 4/1 play. Bravo sir and thank you so ever much for goofing (but not).
It was a looong time,, if ever,, that I laughed out loudly at 05,00 in the morning.
Thanks John,, 🥰👍.
Those audio manufacturer reps must love you for always agreeing to play songs you love. Maybe they’ll add them to their playlists too.
This review is so real it literally slays every other review in its class. It’s an infinity out of 10 for me .
Night and day!
Are people still using the term slay? By people I mean adults not on tiktok.
You gigantic, world class joker you!! You had me again!! I can't believe it! It was a whole 5mins until the penny dropped! Brilliant stuff!

“Thanks to You, a real toe-tapper.” Hilarious! You’re the best, John. Love ya.
I'm still having trouble finding the right types of plants to balance my listening room.
That was last year's classic episode. This was equally funny.
A money plant ie Jade Tree is a must. Rumour has it...you will never be poor if you have that plant is in your house. Which means.....money to buy more hi-fi gear. 😁
Poison ivy in the doorway should ensure your left alone to enjoy your music of choice.
Weltklasse! Es hat in den audiophilen Highlights nur noch „Under the bridge“ von den Peppers gefehlt. Your personal favorite! 😉
Haha! Thanks John, had a good laugh watching this one. Sorry to hear about your bass leaf. That’s a tough blow.

Well done! You've successfully included all audiophile phrases known to man. Lol.
Nicely done! I enjoyed seeing your lighter side. Seeing you chuckle was great too. Be well!
😍 When you said "I am sorry if I don't have a bookshelf".
Yes, I too love Hotel CA. Been known to put it on repeat for an entire weekend. Thanks John!
Funny. That's exactly what they do at hifi shows! 😆
For the most cliches in one video. The award goes to……John Darko! 🤣
Have you been to the Scott Walters channel?
Nice heart shaped vase. Reminds me of akron/family love is simple. Thank you for this one.
I do that exact same nod when my Mrs is in the room. One reason we've never argued in 32 years.
Thanks John, lots of laugh out loud moments in this video!
I'm going with the S300 for my office - small room set up. Super excited.
A good one John. Thank you for putting a smile on our face. Nice speakers but still in love with my ATC SCM-20SL. I wonder when you'll have a review on any ATC speaker...
No ATC reviews planned...yet.
Jeebus!!, it took me way too long to realize this review came out on April 1. Thanks for the laugh John
The mkii’s are great speakers. I had the originals and then bought the mkii’s, and after I’d been playing them for a while, my wife came down into the man cave and said “I was listening upstairs - what did you do to your speakers? Because the crossover point used to be 2000hz and these are crossing over at 1800”.
Brilliant video haha. And nice plants!
Very good review as always.
Interesting can I ask if you checked what influence the front wall has due to the large rear radiator for those that can’t pull them out into the middle of the room. Also would be very interested to know how they sound coupled to the M10 v2 you are currently testing
Thanks
John
You have to hear the Amphion Argone One spaeker. This brand Amphion is rarely reviewed. I am not a salesman, just a hifi lover who came in contact with a pair of very good sounding speakers for smaller rooms. Amphion is made in Finland and are handbild.
Love your work
Ludo
I was onto you as soon as you mentioned you can't get enough of "Keith Don't Go" at audio shows ...
John, gutted to hear about the sub-bass leaf. Hope she grows back soon. Excellent review as always. #ifyouknowyouknow
Perfect deadpan delivery! ❤️
I was going to rush out and buy them and then I realized, April 1st! Sound staging that travels through walls 😂
"I ask them to play Keith don't go at the audio show and they oblige!" 😂😂😂 priceless! Well done!
Legitimately one of the funniest videos I've seen on RUclips. There are so many little nuggets for long-time viewers who are familiar with your audiophile pet peeves.
Edit: Also, I don't know how you managed to call these "musical" without gagging lol.
At last, a real audiophile rewiew!
Thank you for awesome personal approach to the review. I'd love to come to Germany and meet you in the restaurant you mention, have good food and wine, and talk about music and hifi gear! Take care!
Can’t believe I was hoodwinked till you open the balcony doors to check the right soundstage!! 🤣 Should have known when you said that the fedex fella was excited!?!?
Great 'review' John. Thanks and well done ;¬D Greetings to you and yours

Either way, not good.

Love it! Thanks!
Love your sense of humor, John! Karoly, from the country of Bartók
Loved it I was taken in for a while 😄
That was AWESOME!!
I was suspicious when I saw GIANT KILLER! in the title but still fell for it. #wellplayed good sir.
Another great April fools video from Darko :D
Oh my god I've always wanted a Giant Killer!! I'm literally running to my nearest Ikea to purchase 2 bookshelves as I wait for my end-game soundstage monstrosities. Finally an honest review that tells it like it is!! Hifi doesn't need to be expensive!! VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!
My favorite part were the outtakes. How'd you manage the Take 5 segment without dying with laughter?
Thanks a lot John !
“All I could hear was a straight wire with gain.” ❤️💯
From my point of view, the crossover could still be reworked to completely straighten out the frequency response, which would also have a very positive effect on some of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' songs. Many greetings from Cologne.
And the date was… ?
