Additionally, the extra components in the speaker that allow it to be so versatile also drive up its price. From a consumer perspective, that means you’re paying extra for features you’ll probably never use. Bummer.
The Audio Pro C20 costs $550, which isn’t cheap, but it’s also not crazy expensive; many similar-sized wireless speakers, like the Sonos Five ($549), cost about the same.That said, for a similar price you could buy a good Dolby Atmos soundbar — like the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) — that’s almost as versatile but can also function as a smart speaker; so you can use voice commands to play music when not playing TV audio.
The Audio Pro C20 is big and clever - and relatively affordable at the same time. In looks, specification and sound terms, it seems more expensive than it actually is - so, try as I might, I can’t think of how to put any meaningfully negative spin on this single-box speaker.
When it comes to wireless connectivity, Audio Pro's growing line of standalone (or multi-room friendly) speakers was no slouch before the C20. Even so, with the turntable friendly, HDMI ARC-toting, sub-out sporting, RCA hook-up-able new C20, the Swedish audio specialist has outdone itself in terms of wired options too – and the sound is simply splendid.
The C20 is similar to the C10 MkII but offers an even more powerful, energetic, and rich performance for those that want to step up or have a big-sounding speaker in their home. Its wireless connectivity is very good, and its turntable and TV support makes it a flexible wireless speaker. It’s another very entertaining speaker from Audio Pro.
